A rare first resale—offered by the original owner who purchased the home new.
Some homes are simply well finished. This one was conceived for the way people actually live: generously, privately, and with a quiet sense of occasion.
4292 South Capitol Terrace SW comes to market for the first time since its construction. Nearly 2,300 square feet unfold across three expansive levels—four bedrooms, three-and-one-half baths, and natural light from three exposures—creating a home that feels both substantial and effortless. Scale without waste. Style without noise. A layout that gathers people in, then gives them room to retreat.
The main level was designed for evenings that linger. Rich hardwoods lead from an oversized family room into a generous dining space and a kitchen that does more than perform—it anchors the house. Crown molding, recessed lighting, and an abundance of windows give the rooms a composed, elevated presence. The kitchen is richly detailed with extensive wood cabinetry, glass-front display cabinets, granite surfaces, a mosaic tile backsplash, stainless-steel appliances, and a substantial contrasting island made for conversation as much as cooking. Just beyond, a sun-filled breakfast area creates an inviting setting for morning coffee—open to the home, yet distinctly its own.
Upstairs, the primary suite feels like a private world. Hardwood floors, a dramatic tray ceiling, two large windows, and a customized walk-in closet establish a sense of calm and intention. The en-suite bath continues that feeling with a dual-sink granite vanity and an oversized, glass-enclosed tiled shower. Two additional bright, well-proportioned bedrooms share a second full bath, completing a bedroom level that is comfortable, practical, and beautifully resolved.
Then there is the walk-out level—the home’s most unexpected luxury. This is not leftover space. It offers a fourth bedroom, third full bath, full-size laundry, generous storage, and an extraordinarily large recreation room with direct access to the rear yard. Guests. A private suite. Work. Fitness. Cinema. This level expands the life of the house rather than merely adding square footage.
Outside, a large, fully fenced lawn offers something increasingly rare: actual room. To entertain. To garden. To let the day stretch. Dedicated off-street parking and an installed EV charger add the everyday ease that luxury, at its best, quietly includes. The brick-front exterior, fenced front lawn, and end-home placement complete a presence that is both distinguished and welcoming.
They say real estate is all about location, and we couldn’t agree more. This home offers easy access to I-495 & I-295 and is less than 15 minutes from JBAB (1.4mi), National Harbor (4.4mi), Old Town Alexandria (7mi), and Capitol Hill (5mi).
This is a home for buyers who will not trade space for style, or function for finish. It is substantial. It is upgraded. It has been thoughtfully lived in by the only owner it has ever known—and it is ready for its next chapter.
4292 South Capitol Terrace SW. A rare first resale—and an exceptional opportunity to become only its second owner.
