Property Description
This home is an entertainer's dream. Enter through the sun-bathed living room with its wood burning fireplace framed in painted brick and refinished original oak hardwood floors throughout. The adjacent dining room is wrapped in classic wainscoting and opens through a columned archway into a truly magnificent chef's kitchen, where everyone will naturally gather around the oversized center island with inviting wood countertop. The brand new five burner cooktop is complemented by a full suite of stainless appliances, extended height custom cabinetry with glass fronts, a custom range hood, and built in wine storage and shelving. A charming banquette with cushioned bench seating tucks beneath an octagonal window, offering a peaceful spot to enjoy a morning coffee or curl up with a book, while the kitchen's slate tile flooring adds warmth through underfloor heating and durability underfoot. Views of the expansive, level, fully fenced rear yard bring a sense of serenity to the kitchen.
Double French doors open to an oversized rear deck complete with a pergola and a lattice privacy wall accented by wall mounted lighting, perfect for evening gatherings. The yard is equally suited to small, intimate meals, lawn games or grand entertaining, with a stone fountain, a stone edged planting bed, a red maple and River Birch, a tucked away fire pit area, and mature landscaping that provides shade and privacy while creating an idyllic feel.
Tucked away in a private wing on the main level, two generously sized bedrooms share an updated, ceramic tile full bath with underfloor heating, offering a thoughtful separation between the home's entertaining and sleeping spaces. A dedicated staircase leads to the upper level, where the finished attic has been transformed into a spacious primary retreat. Skylights fill the space with natural light, an exposed painted brick chimney adds architectural character, and built in shelving offers handy storage near the stair landing. The large ensuite bath continues the home's classic style with a double vanity topped in marble, a skylight of its own, and a striking black and white octagon tile floor. A separate soaking tub with a checkerboard tile surround creates a peaceful spot to unwind at the end of the day.
The finished lower level adds exceptional flexibility with a sprawling recreation room featuring built in shelving and a distinctive sliding wood panel wall, ideal for a playroom, media room, fitness area, or additional family living space. The utility and storage area offers a washer and dryer, abundant storage, and workspace. A detached one car garage provides convenient storage for bikes, tools, and outdoor equipment.
Perfectly positioned in one of Arlington's most desirable neighborhoods, this home is just steps from favorites such as Ruthie's All Day, the Thomas Jefferson Community Center, and Montessori Park with its playgrounds and green space. Commuters will appreciate easy access to major routes (Glebe Road and Columbia Pike), public transit with the closest bus stop one block away, and the Virginia Square GMU Metro station on the Orange and Silver Lines, roughly 1.6 miles away, placing the best of Northern Virginia and Washington, DC within easy reach.
