About This Home

As of April 2021

WELCOME HOME! SO many places to relax inside AND outside! Sip your morning coffee on the HUGE back patio! Take your laptop outside and get some work done in the sun- there's plenty of space and the outdoor furniture will stay! The awning conveys as well! Current owners spent over 40k! on the patios and walkways! Lots of wonderful easy-care landscaping and many flowering trees have been planted! Inside you'll love the cherry hardwood floors and HUGE windows! I hope you like lots of sunlight! Family room is just off the kitchen and has a wonderful wood burning brick fireplace with mantle-another wonderful place to relax! The kitchen has been updated with the stainless steel appliances and granite that you have been wanting! Super spacious one car garage has excellent storage and easy access to the mud room/laundry room! The laundry room has cabinets to keep everything tidy and a full size washer and dryer to make doing laundry a cinch! Upstairs are 4 bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The primary bedroom is super spacious with a walk-in closet and an updated bathroom! The other three bedrooms can be used however you like- maybe an upper level home office? The basement has storage galore and is yet another great place to relax and entertain...it's super open and has plenty of light! The HVAC was fully replaced in 10/2019! Fresh paint, too! You'll feel spoiled living in the Town of Herndon- Town taxes cover all your trash, recycling, snow removal, leaf pickup, two large item pickups per year, your own Town government, your own public works department and your own police department! Downtown amenities are a mile away and feature multiple restaurants, bars, beer gardens, the W&OD trail, summer concerts, Farmer's Market, bread shop, tea shop, bike shop, bridal shop, flower shop and so much more and more to come with the Downtown plan! Did I mention METRO is nearby? Easy access to Fairfax County Parkway, Rt7, the Dulles Toll Road, Rt28, and Dulles Airport! Hurry over to see your new home!
