506 Colecroft Ct

Just steps away from bustling Old Town, yet feeling like you're miles away, is a community of idyllic townhouses that bring the best of modern living to historic Old Town. Nestled on a side-street, you'll find 506 Colecroft Court, an end-unit townhouse featuring three exposures and a timeless, low-maintenance brick exterior. ------Step inside and you'll immediately see that you're in a home like no other in the community. The current owners completely removed the wall between the kitchen and the living area to create a modern, open plan that is filled with light from three exposures. ------The kitchen boasts white Shaker-style cabinets (including a concealed dishwasher and refrigerator), handsome quartz counters, stainless appliances and an iridescent tile backsplash. A peninsula serves as a breakfast bar or buffet for serving large meals in the open dining space, and additional cabinetry can be found cleverly installed on the dining side of the peninsula. ------Hardwood floors flow between the kitchen and living area and the crown moldings unify the gracious dining space with the large living room. Flanked by two windows, the wood-burning fireplace with mantel provides warmth and the triple-wide French door opens the living room to the back patio. The patio has a high wood fence creating a private oasis while the gate provides access to the community. ------Upstairs, hardwood floors are found throughout along with two generous bedrooms with double windows and ample closet space. Both upstairs baths have been completely remodeled - one with travertine and one in marble - with high end finishes and quality fixtures. ------The lower level provides new carpeting, installed just days ago. Built-in bookcases and cabinets on a full wall add a sophisticated touch to the recreation room. A ceramic tile half bath and laundry room round out the basement. ------Of course, the location here is second to none! It's a quick walk just a couple of blocks to the Braddock Road Metro and to the center of Old Town. The Potomac waterfront is easily accessible by foot and the community is adjacent to a pedestrian walkway and bike path. Downtown DC and National Airport are minutes away by car or Metro.
