8920 Vernon View Dr

This stunning 2/3rd acre lot is the perfect setting for this charming ranch style home. Surrounded by lush beauty and a huge yard, this wood, brick and stone custom home has many original details that are rare in the neighborhood including a stone fireplace, tongue and groove paneling and exotic wood flooring. While the house could use some kitchen and bathroom updates, it has great bones and recent roof and system replacements, so the dollars spent will have the best return on investment. 3 spacious bedrooms on the main level and two full baths including a beautifully renovated accessible bathroom. Downstairs, you will find a bedroom with egress window and walk in closet with a door to the adjacent full bathroom. There is a also a large paneled recreation room and workshop/storage space. The large basement closet could be easily converted and would function well as a laundry room if you wanted to move it off the main level. Outside you will find an oasis just a few blocks from the Potomac River. The inground pool (opened and functioning this year) is the perfect respite on steamy summer days. Plenty of room for entertaining and still a huge yard beyond for recreation, play or an addition. Enjoy all of this space just a short distance from Old Town, D.C., the Huntington Metro and major commuting routes. Fort Hunt is a fabulous community of single family homes with a resort like feel. Local shopping, top ranked schools and dozens of recreation options are all within a short bike or car ride. Welcome to our Mayberry.
