3726 12th Street S, Arlington, VA 22204

London Square was built in the mid-1960s, when builders had a different sensibility. Homes were designed around generous proportions. Rooms had definition-and by that I mean walls. Every space had a purpose. Its a floor plan that has quietly stood the test of time. Weve come full circle. Welcome to 3726 12th St S.nThe foyer isnt an entry. Its an arrival. Nearly eight feet wide, with a real coat closet and a broad hallway, it sets the tone for everything that follows.nCalling the living room generous might be an understatement. The original fireplace, thoughtfully updated with a gas insert, anchors the room, while new sliding glass doors open to the private terrace. Matching doors in the dining room connect both rooms to the outdoors without asking either one to surrender its identity.nIn 1966, hardwood floors werent considered an upgrade. They were simply how homes like this were built. The attached garage is accessed directly from the main living level, one of those thoughtful details you dont fully appreciate until youve lived with it.nUpstairs, the primary suite is absurdly spacious with a renovated bath. The two secondary bedrooms arent oversized offices masquerading as bedrooms. They have real closets, real windows and room for more than just a bed.nThe lower level was built to be part of the house, not an afterthought. Anchored by a second wood-burning fireplace, the recreation room can become whatever your lifestyle dictates-a family room, media room, guest room, home
