Beauty is not just skin deep with this house! The owners replaced the roof with gutter guards and new downspouts, so a major expense has already been addressed. Further, there are dual sump pumps in the basement for additional protection during heavy rains, a recently replaced hot water heater and recently replaced HVAC.

The location of this home is second to none, just minutes from the epicenters of Tyson's Corner, the Mosaic District, and McLean, all with rich arrays of grocery shops, restaurants, shops and more. It's a short trip to multiple metro stations and with easy access to the Beltway means that it’s just minutes to downtown DC and beyond.
