3400 Alabama Ave

Quintessential Beverley Hills residence - 3400 Alabama Avenue draws you in with its charming curb appeal and the interior will call you home! Herringbone design brick pathway leads to the home which is surrounded by a well-manicured lawn and landscaping. Crossing the threshold of this 1940s dwelling, immediately take in bright rooms, arched doorways, pristine hardwood floors, classic crown molding, neutral paint, and high ceilings. The living room presents a brick wood-burning fireplace and French doors that lead to a freshly stained and fully covered deck with an auto-controlled retractable awning that overlooks mature trees and a calming stream. Off the living room is a bedroom (1 of 4) with a full bath and custom built-in shelves/cabinet - ideal if you have one-level living needs. A separate dining room will be the setting for many future occasions and flows into the open and renovated eat-in kitchen. Filled with natural light streaming through a wall of oversized windows and two skylights, the kitchen boasts stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, glass tile backsplash, a Wolf gas range, a built-in desk nook, abundant cabinet storage, and a large center island with a breakfast bar that will make food prep easy. From the table space, you’ll have the possibility to witness wildlife like deer and foxes, frolicking in the wooded area behind the house. The upper level is made up of three bedrooms and two full bathrooms; the primary bedroom offers an updated ensuite with a walk-in glass shower featuring two showerheads. Moving to the lower level, the rec/family room is spacious and provides the comfort of a gas fireplace and walkout access to a covered flagstone patio that is connected to a screened porch with a relaxing hot tub. This level is completed by an office/hobby room, a laundry room, and a half bath. A driveway leads to a one-car garage, and there is ample street parking available for family and friends. Additional perks include a Vermont slate roof, out-of-season storage options (large attic and closets on the top floor), and Weathersheild windows (2012). Located in the sought-after neighborhood of Beverley Hills, moving here will make you central to local schools, great parks/playgrounds (The Pit), trendy areas (Del Ray, Old Town, Shirlington), and is ideal for commuters with great proximity to The Pentagon, Crystal City, and DC. These current owners have lived, loved, and improved this home for 40 years and you will not want to miss this opportunity to have a similar future.
