About This Home
Freshly painted and thoughtfully updated, this fully modernized bungalow in the Virginia Heights/Columbia Forest neighborhood of Arlington is the perfect blend of character and convenience. With over 2,150 sq ft of living space, this charming home features 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths on the main level, plus a versatile loft with a 5th bedroom upstairs—ideal for guests or a dedicated home office. Over $100K in renovations include a brand-new shed added in 2024, mini split heating and cooling units installed in the dining room and upstairs in 2023, a new fence in 2023, a cedar lined close in the primary bedroom in 2021 and a series of essential updates throughout the years: a washer and dryer in 2018, new windows and roof in 2017, an updated furnace, refrigerator, dishwasher, stove/oven, and garbage disposal in 2016, a microwave and A/C unit in 2015, and a new hot water heater in 2014.
Inside, the gourmet kitchen boasts granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, seamlessly flowing into the dining and living spaces that feature both a wood-burning fireplace and a gas fireplace—perfect for cozy nights in. Updated flooring and recessed lighting add a contemporary touch, while the expansive, fenced backyard offers a stone patio and a brand-new shed, making it the perfect spot for outdoor entertaining, relaxing, or gardening. A detached 1-car garage provides added convenience, and the prime cul-de-sac location puts you just moments away from Columbia Pike, Leesburg Pike, shopping, dining, and more.
With all these updates and fresh paint throughout, this move-in ready home is truly a rare find in Arlington. Want more space? Professional architect design plans available?
