A rare opportunity to create a truly personal home on one of Lyon Village’s most desirable streets, 1709 N. Harvard Street brings together architectural presence, exceptional craftsmanship, and a setting that is nearly impossible to replicate. While the design, quality, and finishes will stand confidently on their own, the location is equally compelling. Lyon Village offers a distinctive daily rhythm: leafy neighborhood streets, morning walks for coffee, spontaneous dinners in Clarendon, nearby Metro access, and parks and community traditions woven into everyday life. It is one of the few places in Arlington where a substantial, beautifully designed new home can still feel deeply connected to its surroundings.
BCN’s design-forward approach favors layered materials, thoughtful sightlines, refined millwork, and finishes selected to feel collected rather than formulaic. The result will be a home with the polish of professional design and the warmth and individuality of a residence created for the way its owners actually live.
The floor plan is equally considered. Ten-foot ceilings introduce the main level, where formal and informal spaces flow naturally without sacrificing distinction. A formal dining room and private office provide structure at the front of the home, while the kitchen, breakfast area, and expansive family room unfold across the rear and extend seamlessly onto the screened porch. The kitchen will feature cabinet-paneled designer appliances, a sprawling island, and natural stone countertops. A fireplace flanked by custom millwork anchors the family room, while the screened porch creates a true outdoor room for long dinners, quiet mornings, and effortless entertaining. For added flexibility, the main-level office may also be configured as a guest bedroom with an adjacent full bath.
Upstairs, all four bedrooms enjoy private baths and walk-in closets. The primary suite is designed as a genuine retreat, with two walk-in closets and a spa-inspired bath featuring dual vanities, a freestanding tub, an oversized shower with bench, and a private water closet, all finished in luxurious natural stone.
The lower level offers considerably more than overflow space. An expansive recreation room with an entertainer’s bar is joined by a guest bedroom and full bath, plus a separate wellness or theater room.
The bonus loft level adds another bedroom and full bath, along with flexible space that could become a quiet studio, playroom, second office, guest retreat, or private hideaway. A thoughtfully placed elevator rough-in allows for easy installation, whether during construction or in years to come.
1709 N. Harvard Street is more than new construction. It is an opportunity to shape a design-led BCN home and make one of Arlington’s most cherished neighborhoods entirely your own.
Construction will begin this summer. Reach out to discuss customizing, financing options, timing and any other questions you might have.
