434 N. Lincoln Street
Neighborhood: Ashton Heights
Listing Price : $1,210,000
Open House: Oct. 1 and 2 from 1-4 p.m. each day 

This charming property is located in sought after Ashton Heights and is less than a half mile to the Virginia Square Metro, shops, restaurants, Arlington Arts Center, parks and playgrounds.

This vintage bungalow is a rare find, one that includes original hardwood floors, an inviting front porch where you can relax, a regal fireplace, a lovely trex deck perfect for entertaining, new windows, sun-filled family addition and a cozy sunroom. It is nestled in the middle of an expansive tree-lined corner lot (a quarter acre) on a quiet street. This home and location has it all, urban village amenities and a country like setting.

The four bedroom, three bath classic bungalow has an old fashioned ambiance that is hard to find these days, one that takes you back to a less hectic time. When the current owners renovated, they found a journal page dated May 1930, that listed birds in the yard and said, “I cannot imagine a place being more heaven than my front porch, morning, afternoon, or evening in May.”

The home was formerly owned by the last surviving WWI vet in Arlington, Bernard Allison. Mr. Allison, who lived to 102, mowed the lawn himself until he was over 100. A former neighbor once stopped by to ask if she could have a chaise Mr. Allison had left on the porch, explaining that her mother loved sitting on it and visiting with Mr. Allison. Porch and porch swing convey.

Gourmet refreshments will be served at the open houses this weekend compliments of Potomac Title Group Services.

Remembering 9/11 at the Pentagon — President Obama attended a memorial service at the Pentagon Sunday morning. Some 800 friends and family members of victims of the Pentagon attacks were in attendance at the private 15th anniversary event. [Los Angeles Times, NBC 4]

Arlington Remembers 9/11 — Local remembrance ceremonies were held in Arlington for the 9/11 anniversary, including an annual wreath-laying ceremony outside county government headquarters at Courthouse Square and, on Saturday, an event at Fire Station No. 5, the closest Arlington County fire station to the Pentagon — whose firefighters were among the first to arrive on scene at the burning Pentagon on Sept. 11, 2001. The latter event featured crew members of the USS Arlington. [Facebook, InsideNova]

Note About Morning Notes — You might notice that the URL of this post is /morning-notes-1500/, reflecting that this is the 1,500th post published with the headline “Morning Notes.” Technically, however, this is Morning Notes post No. 1,515. About 1 percent of the time we either press publish before filling out the headline or have a slight misspelling (it’s the first post we publish in the morning, c’mon) — even though the error is quickly corrected, the erroneous URL has to stay as-is.

Just Listed banner

Just Listed highlights Arlington properties that just came on the market within the past week. This feature is written and sponsored by Team Cathell, “Your Orange Line Specialists.”

It’s no surprise that new listings were down this week in Arlington.

Only 48 sellers braved the last week of summer before Labor Day weekend to put their homes on the market. But sales were brisk, with 60 homes going under contract. Many of those had been on the market 5 months or longer.

Historically low interest rates didn’t move this week. But watch out for possible Fed action to raise rates at its meeting in September. If Friday’s jobs report is strong, the Fed could nudge rates upward.

Click to see all the fresh new inventory in MRIS and call Team Cathell (703-975-2500) when you find a home you like.
