3731 Nelly Custis Dr

Beautiful Mid-century modern home with expanded open floor plan and a convenient location that makes getting around a snap! Situated between the Potomac River and the Orange Line, the location puts you within minutes of DC and Clarendon, yet you can escape into nature with a walk to the river. Enjoy over 3500 sq ft of finished living space, perfectly designed for everyday living, entertaining and working from home. Thoughtful contemporary details enhance this architectural gem. A sunny front patio welcomes you into the living room where you will be drawn to the floor to ceiling brick fireplace, a true statement piece. The dining room is flooded with sunlight streaming through wraparound corner windows. The updated kitchen has maple cabinets, a pantry, counter seating, and opens to a window-filled family room perfect for reading, music or to use as a playroom. Just off the family room is a shaded deck and private, lush backyard for playing, grilling or gardening. Retreat to the primary bedroom by ascending the private windowed stairway off the kitchen. With exposed beams, vaulted ceiling, luxury spa-like bath, dressing area, walk-in closet & treehouse views, it is a haven of comfort and privacy. Back down on the main level, there are 2-3 more bedrooms. In the rear is a large bedroom #2 with an attached full bathroom. The 3rd bedroom is a flexible space that is currently being used as a large office with built-ins. It was previously 2 bedrooms and can be converted back to two smaller bedrooms. You choose if you want 4 or 5 bedrooms in this home (see floorplans.) The lower level is fully finished with a rec room that has built-in cabinetry, a study space, a 4th Bedroom, 4th Bath and even a butler's pantry/wine room. A one car attached garage is also on the lower level and opens to a small foyer that can be used as a mud room. The landscaping on this property includes beautiful flowering trees - redbud, magnolia, cherry, parriota, red maple, crepe myrtle, and dogwoods which are enhanced by exterior lighting. Commuters will love just 2 lights to DC via GW Parkway or Rte 66. Jump on your bike and enjoy quick access to bike paths to DC, Alexandria, the Orange line and Reagan National Airport. This home is also located within the boundaries to be eligible for membership at the Donaldson Run pool, a neighborhood favorite for young and old. Walk your dog on the Windy Run trail that connects the neighborhood to the Potomac River. Walk to the grocery store or local shops. Arlington has new school boundaries for Fall 2021, and this home has been re-zoned to attend Yorktown HS, Dorothy Hamm MS and Taylor ES. In addition to these neighborhood schools, Arlington has many excellent "choice" schools like Montessori, Traditional, Spanish Immersion, IB, etc. Arlington County also has terrific amenities including parks, nature centers, recreation facilities and public transportation, which is why Arlington is such a wonderful place to live!
