5779 Westchester St

Welcome to 5779 Westchester Street, a stately brick-front Stuart model with a 2-car garage sited on over a quarter acre lot in Alexandria's highly desirable Bush Hill Woods. The azaleas are in full bloom and add to the spectacular curb appeal of this gorgeous center hall colonial. Rich sand-in-place hardwood floors grace most of the main-level and lead up the stairs where they distinguish the entire upper hallway. The bright and cheery kitchen is huge and features a sunny breakfast area with generous seating, granite counters, white cabinetry, recessed lighting and a large center island. Just off the kitchen is the family room with its cozy gas fireplace showcasing floor-to-ceiling stone surround. A French door leads you to the wonderful deck backing to trees and overlooking the rear grounds with lovely landscaping. A 6-zone sprinkler system keeps the lawn nicely maintained. Upstairs, the owner's suite includes an oversized walk-in closet, a sitting room with additional closets (this area could easily be converted into a 4th bedroom), and a bath with a double sink vanity, skylights, deep soaking tub and separate shower. Please take note that the windows are newer, the HVAC was replaced in 2016 and the roof and 5.5 inch gutters with gutter guards are only 8 years old. The expansive walk-out lower level features a spacious rec room-perfect for game night, a bonus room that would make a terrific home office, and a roomy storage/utility room. This outstanding residence is in a fabulous location, near all major commuter routes and has easy access to two town centers, the Van Dorn Metro Station, and Fort Belvoir.
