NATURE LOVER'S PARADISE. One-of-a-kind cape cod/bungalow with a romantic and rustic feel, located in a neighborhood of higher priced homes alongside Potomac Overlook Regional Park -- a 67-acre natural woodland with abundant wildlife, featuring miles of wooded hiking trails, plus demonstration gardens, a nature center, a picnic shelter and a children's playground. The home is bright and informal, and a special highlight is the sunny, expansive, open country kitchen and dining room combination that stretches across the entire back side, and includes a breakfast bar and built-in shelving for cookbooks. Also featured in the home are pine and cherry floors, high quality double and/or triple paned replacement windows, and inviting outdoor spaces, including a cozy front porch and a rear deck off the dining room. There are a total of three roomy bedrooms and three full baths. Nearby attractions, all within easy walking distance, include the Donaldson Run Recreation Association just on the other side of the street, Marcey Road Park with tennis and basketball courts, Zachary Taylor Park, and Gulf Branch Natural Area and Nature Center just across Military Rd., and Fort Ethan Allen Park, site of a Civil-War-era defensive fortification. Neighborhood schools are Taylor Elementary, Hamm Middle, and Yorktown High. SEE TOUR SECTION FOR INTERACTIVE FLOOR PLAN AND VIDEO TOUR.
