Kingsgate Condos in Alexandria, VA

Kingsgate is a residential condominium community located in the northwestern portion of the City of Alexandria. Constructed around 1993, the development contains approximately 112 residences arranged among six low-rise buildings.

Each residence extends across two interior levels, providing the space and separation commonly associated with a townhouse. Private entrances, outdoor patios or balconies, two bedroom suites, and assigned parking further distinguish Kingsgate from a traditional apartment-style condominium building.

The community is located along Kingsgate Court, Kenwood Avenue, and West Braddock Place. Residents are close to Interstate 395, Bradlee Shopping Center, Shirlington, Parkfairfax, Fairlington, and several major employment centers in Alexandria, Arlington, and Washington, D.C.

Kingsgate Fast Facts

Kingsgate Real Estate

Kingsgate residences generally offer two bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and one half bathroom. The two-story floor plans place the primary living areas on one level and the bedrooms on the other, creating separation between entertaining and sleeping spaces.

The living level commonly includes a kitchen, dining area, living room, powder room, fireplace, and access to a private patio or balcony. Kitchens may feature a breakfast bar or an opening overlooking the dining and living spaces. Upper levels typically contain two bedrooms, each with access to a private or nearby full bathroom.

Depending on the floor plan, buyers may find walk-in closets, vaulted ceilings, skylights, gas fireplaces, separate showers, soaking tubs, additional storage, and in-unit laundry. Some residences have ground-level patios, while others offer upper-level balconies overlooking landscaped common areas.

Interior finishes vary because individual owners are responsible for renovations. Available condos may range from largely original interiors to homes with remodeled kitchens, contemporary bathrooms, replacement flooring, updated windows, and newer mechanical systems.

Townhouse-Style Condominium Ownership

Kingsgate homes provide the space and layout of a townhouse but are legally condominiums. Owners are generally responsible for the interior of their residences, while the association maintains designated exterior components and common areas.

Condominium fees commonly contribute toward exterior building maintenance, lawn care, common-area maintenance, master insurance, professional management, reserve funding, snow removal, trash collection, and water or sewer service. Coverage can change, so buyers should rely on the current resale certificate rather than previous listing information.

The association may also regulate pets, leasing, exterior changes, satellite dishes, moving procedures, and the use of patios or balconies.

Kingsgate Amenities and Parking

Kingsgate is designed around landscaped common areas and pedestrian paths rather than a large clubhouse or recreation complex. Community features include walking areas, mature landscaping, assigned surface parking, visitor parking, and additional storage associated with some residences.

One assigned parking space commonly conveys with a condo, although the exact number and location should be confirmed for each property. Buyers should also review permit requirements, guest-parking rules, and towing procedures.

Kingsgate does not have a community swimming pool, making it important for buyers to distinguish its amenity package from nearby condominium developments that include extensive recreational facilities.

Shopping and Dining Near Kingsgate

Bradlee Shopping Center is one of the closest commercial destinations, providing grocery shopping, restaurants, a pharmacy, personal services, and specialty businesses. Additional stores and restaurants are located along King Street, North Beauregard Street, and Quaker Lane.

Shirlington Village offers restaurants, entertainment, shops, a public library, and access to the W&OD Trail. Del Ray, Old Town Alexandria, Bailey’s Crossroads, and the Village at Shirlington provide additional choices within a short drive.

The community’s location allows residents to complete many everyday errands nearby while maintaining a primarily residential setting at home.

Parks and Recreation

Fort Ward Park is located near Kingsgate and provides open space, walking areas, picnic facilities, and access to the historic Fort Ward Museum. Chinquapin Park and Recreation Center offers athletic fields, courts, trails, and indoor aquatic facilities.

Additional outdoor destinations include Beverley Park, Monticello Park, Dora Kelley Nature Park, Holmes Run Trail, and the W&OD Trail near Shirlington. Recreational facilities and operating schedules should be confirmed directly with the appropriate city or county agency.

Transportation and Commuting

Kingsgate is located close to Interstate 395, providing road access toward the Pentagon, National Landing, Arlington, and Washington, D.C. King Street, West Braddock Road, Quaker Lane, and North Beauregard Street connect the community with other parts of Alexandria.

Metrobus and DASH routes operate along nearby corridors. The community is not immediately adjacent to a Metrorail station, so many residents use buses, drive, cycle, or use rideshare services to reach Metro or their destination.

Braddock Road, King Street-Old Town, and Pentagon City are among the stations buyers may consider, depending on the destination and transportation route.

What Buyers Should Consider

• Kingsgate homes are legally condominiums, despite their townhouse-style layouts.
• Review the condominium budget, reserve study, insurance, and assessment history.
• Confirm responsibility for roofs, windows, balconies, patios, and HVAC equipment.
• Determine which utilities and maintenance services are included in the condo fee.
• Verify the assigned parking space and current visitor-parking procedures.
• Compare ground-level patios with upper-level balcony configurations.
• Review pet, leasing, renovation, and move-in policies.
• Evaluate the distance to Metro and available bus or driving routes.

Why Consider Kingsgate?

Kingsgate may appeal to buyers who want two levels, two bedroom suites, private outdoor space, and assigned parking without purchasing a traditional fee-simple townhouse. Its floor plans provide more separation and interior space than many single-level condominiums.

The community also provides convenient access to Interstate 395, Bradlee Shopping Center, Shirlington, parks, and employment centers throughout Alexandria and Arlington. Because Kingsgate contains only about 112 residences, available homes may be limited at any particular time.
