About This Home
Completely renovated, this stunning 5-bedroom, 3-bath home is ideally located just down the street from Huntington Metro, minutes to Old Town, and only 15 minutes to DC via I-495. A fully fenced landscaped yard with mature trees creates a welcoming first impression. A two-car garage and expansive driveway offer ample parking and everyday convenience. The open main level is filled with natural light and features a beautifully updated kitchen with quartz countertops, an over-sized waterfall-edge island to include a warming drawer, stainless steel appliances, and custom cabinetry. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the formal living and dining area, highlighted by custom wainscoting and hardwood floors. Just beyond, a sun-filled living room offers a fireplace, custom built-in bookcases, and a wall of windows—creating a serene, treehouse-like retreat. The primary suite overlooks the expansive, fully fenced backyard and includes a spa-inspired ensuite bath and its own private laundry. Outdoor living and entertaining is complete with a patio, built-in seating, and lighting. Partially finished shed with electricity is ready to become your own personal yoga studio, workshop, or creative space. Two additional generously sized bedrooms and a beautifully updated hall bath complete the main level. The lower level is an entertainer’s dream, featuring a fireplace, spacious family room, and a fully updated secondary kitchen with buffet serving bar and wine refrigerator. Two additional bedrooms on this level provide flexible options for a guest suite, home office, or multi-generational living, with a second laundry area. The lower level also offers private access from the garage, adding built-in value and versatility. Every detail has been thoughtfully designed and updated—this home is truly move-in ready. Welcome Home!
