Description
Yes, you CAN have the best of both worlds with this serene haven located just minutes from the charms of Old Town Alexandria! Imagine catching glimpses of a morning sunrise from the large entry window, enjoying a coffee while birdwatching from the family room, or spending peaceful evenings on the shaded back porch that looks out at mature green trees. Leave your car at home and enjoy the convenience of the nearby library, trails, boat/kayak launch, and community center with indoor pool and ice rink. Or enjoy a night out on the town just a block from your home! The nearby plaza features several restaurants, a wine/craft beer bar, and multiple other locally owned businesses, plus all the amenities you need - a grocery store, post office, and drug store. When you do need to drive, you are just 2 miles south of Old Town Alexandria, 3/4 mile to the GW Parkway, and 1 mile to the 495 Capital Beltway and other central transportation hubs that feed the entire DC region. When you arenâÂÂt enjoying the bustling community, youâÂÂll be taken by the house itself which features over $150k in current owner improvements! Notice the recently installed (2020) hardwood flooring that carries throughout the main living areas of the home. A beautiful stone surround gas fireplace offers ambiance and convenience, while the built-in bar makes hosting guests a true delight! Make your way into the recently renovated gourmet kitchen (2020) - complete with a large island, farmhouse style sink, and open concept that continues seamlessly into a bright and cheery family room with adjoining dining room. A large sliding glass door makes alfresco dining a breeze, while the large and numerous windows welcome the outdoors inside as well. Off the kitchen, youâÂÂll find a hallway to the personal spaces of the home. A full bathroom is thoughtfully placed slightly away from the bedroom areas for more privacy and less guest interference. The large primary bedroom includes its own full bathroom, a walk-in closet, as well as a vanity/dressing area. Two bedrooms round out the main levelâÂÂs sleeping quarters, along with a pull-down attic ladder that allows easy access to additional storage from the hallway. Make your way down to the finished basement with natural light! YouâÂÂll find a large utility/laundry room with plenty of storage, a large recreation room with a wood burning brick fireplace, and a lower-level study that has an adjoining full bathroom. The perfect home office, this room is set away from the upper-level living areas for privacy, and has the bonus of private garage access for hosting guests or colleagues without having them go through your home. An alternate use for this space could be to use it as an in-law or nanny respite - a room and bathroom separated from the main areas of the home with a private entrance. An escape from the hustle and bustle but in the heart of it all!
