About This Home
As of June 2025*Assumable 4.625% VA loan for VA Eligible buyers* Welcome to this beautifully updated 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath colonial on a generous corner lot in the desirable Stratford Landing neighborhood—situated on land that was once part of George Washington’s original Mount Vernon estate.
Step inside to refinished white oak hardwood floors throughout the main and upper levels, creating a seamless blend of charm and sophistication. The renovated kitchen (2022) is a chef’s dream, featuring white soft-close cabinets with custom pullouts, Calacatta Laza quartz counters, GE stainless steel appliances, and a premium Kraus workstation sink with built-in accessories. A spacious living room offers a cozy wood-burning fireplace, custom built-ins, and a bright bay window, while the large rear addition impresses with cathedral ceilings and opens to a newly refinished deck with a natural gas hookup—perfect for year-round grilling.
Upstairs, the primary suite includes a walk-in closet and a stylishly updated en-suite bath with a multi-function showerhead. Two additional bedrooms with new remote-controlled ceiling fans and a renovated hall bath complete the upper level. The finished lower level offers versatile space with a rec room, electric fireplace, full bath, laundry, storage room, and a fourth bedroom ideal for guests or a home office.
Recent upgrades include a new architectural shingle roof (2022), water heater (2021), and a powered shed for workshop potential. The attic is floored for extra storage, and double-hung, easy-clean windows enhance convenience throughout. Enjoy bbqs on the back deck, and as a bonus the back yard is fully fenced in!
Enjoy serene commutes along the GW Parkway and easy access to Fort Belvoir, the Pentagon, and Capitol Hill. Optional community pool membership adds the perfect neighborhood touch!
