The bright entry foyer leads to both the kitchen and the living room. The sunny living room has hardwood floors, recessed lights, and plenty of storage with four closets, including a walk-in pantry.
The modern, sun-drenched kitchen has vaulted ceilings and large windows overlooking the garden. It features recessed lighting and under-cabinet lights. The kitchen island features a granite countertop, and bar seating. There are newer stainless steel GE Profile appliances, including an induction stovetop. Sliding glass doors provide access to a spacious Trex deck, which is a perfect spot for dining al fresco and enjoying the views. There is a convenient half bath off of the kitchen.
Upstairs there are three bedrooms (all with hardwood flooring) and two full baths. The Primary Bedroom Suite features large windows offering great sunrise views, and a high perch to enjoy the vistas of the sought-after Columbia Forest. The Primary Bedroom suite includes an attached Full Bath, and two closets – one which is a wonderful walk-in closet with built-ins. There are two other bedrooms upstairs with ample closet space as well, plus another full bath off the hallway.
Off of the kitchen on the main living level, there are stairs to a fourth bedroom that is lower than the main level, yet still above grade, due to the unique topography of the lot. This room makes for a great study, guest room, or home office.
Recent updates include a new roof (Spring of 2024,) new hot water heater (Winter 2024) Trex deck, an expanded HVAC, recently replaced GE Profile kitchen appliances, and a wonderful custom pantry closet.
The fenced-in yard is nicely landscaped and includes a quaint greenhouse for growing herbs and vegetables. The yard offers a host of possibilities for entertaining, relaxing, gardening, and recreation.
The Columbia Forest neighborhood is known for its stunning trees and pedestrian-friendly pathways. It's very close to the Village of Shirlington -- less than 2 miles, Bailey's Crossroads - less than a mile, and the Columbia Pike Corridor, less than a mile -- all have great shopping and dining options. It's also an easy commute to Amazon's HQ2, National Landing, Pentagon City, and The Pentagon. DC is a short drive, as is Alexandria and Falls Church.
The house is just over 5 miles to Reagan National Airport for traveling. Easy access to I-395, Route 50/Arlington Boulevard, Leesburg Pike/Route 7, Columbia Pike, and also close to I-66. The ART Bus (Route 75) is less than a quarter of a mile and goes to Shirlington, Virginia Square, and Ballston.
Grocery shopping is a breeze -- Harris Teeter is less than a mile away, and Aldi, Trader Joes, and Giant are all within 2 miles. There are many retail shops nearby, including Target, REI, TJ Maxx, Marshalls, Ross and more.
It’s near running and walking trails and close to several parks, including Jennie Dean Park, Alcova Heights Park, and the Shirlington Dog Park.
This lovely home offers so much charm, ease, updates, and convenience -- don't miss it!
