Welcome to your dream home in the heart of "the Little City"! Tucked away in a charming enclave of just 18 townhomes on a quiet cul-de-sac, this all-brick three-level gem with a one-car garage seamlessly blends elegance with convenience. And there is NO HOA, which is rare for a townhome community. Enjoy the freedom and flexibility of homeownership with no HOA fees. In a prime location, you're just a short stroll away from the Falls Church Community Center, Saturday Farmers’ Market, Harris Teeter, North Side Social, Mary Riley Styles Library, W&OD Trail, Cherry Hill Park, State Theater, and an array of shops and restaurants. Plus, the home is less than a mile from East Falls Church Metro Station for a stress-free commute and offers easy access to I-66 and the Capital Beltway. Your brick walkway takes you to a covered alcove entry to keep you dry. This leads to a tiled foyer with a spacious coat closet and a first floor family room with a wood-burning fireplace. The family room spans the entire width of the home and has French doors in the rear opening to a fully fenced 40’ deep tiered backyard with a patio, perfect for outdoor entertaining. The entry level also offers a half bath and access to the garage. An elegant U-shaped hardwood staircase leads to the main living level, which boasts a spacious, light-filled living room with a second fireplace. Gleaming hardwood floors continue from the living room into the hallway and the formal dining room, which has western-facing windows for a sunset view. A double swing door ensures easy access to the kitchen, which features natural cherry cabinetry with soft-close drawers, brand new quartz countertops, tiled floors, a stainless-steel French Door Refrigerator (2023), a new dishwasher, new wall oven and microwave combo, plus a 36” wide cooktop. The beautiful cabinetry and countertops continue in the laundry area off the kitchen, which includes a high efficiency front-load steam washer and a super-capacity dryer. An additional powder room on this level adds convenience, and another closet provides additional storage. The bedroom level hosts a generously sized primary bedroom featuring a walk-in closet with natural light and an ensuite bath with a walk-in shower. The 16’ x 12’ second bedroom and an 11’ x 12’ third bedroom both offer good-sized closets and views of the private backyard. All three bedrooms and the upper landing have hardwood floors that have just been buffed to a beautiful finish. Additional updates in the home include new carpet in the family room, new light fixtures, freshly painted walls and ceilings, recently remodeled bathrooms, hot water heater replaced in 2021, and HVAC system replaced in 2018 with a service contract through 6/24.
