About This Home
As of October 2023Welcome to Governor’s Hill, a small and welcoming enclave of distinguished homes, where the sense of community and pride of ownership is immediately evident as you enter the neighborhood.
Upon entering 5852 Governor’s Hill, you'll be wowed by the feeling of space and abundance of natural light pouring in through the oversized windows. The formal sitting area invites you to relax and unwind, offering a tranquil space for reading or entertaining guests. Flowing seamlessly from the sitting area, the spacious dining room is perfect for a casual meal or formal gathering.
The thoughtfully designed floor plan of this Cameron model offers helpful visual separation between the formal and informal spaces. Passing through the butler's pantry, the home opens up to reveal a stunning wall of windows, a generously sized open kitchen with an island, large pantry, and brand new appliances. The warm wood floors carry throughout the first floor unifying the space. The adjacent breakfast area and family room provide a warm and inviting place to curl up in front of the gas fireplace or step out onto the patio to enjoy grilling and the fenced yard. Completing the first floor is a den, ideally suited as a home office.
Upstairs, you'll find four spacious bedrooms. The current owners smartly carried wood floors throughout the second floor. Two of the secondary bedrooms are connected by a Jack and Jill bath with double sinks, while the third bedroom boasts a private attached bath. The primary bedroom provides a luxurious retreat with its tray ceiling, two custom walk-in closets, and an updated and upgraded en-suite bath featuring a frameless glass shower with body sprays, soaking tub, double sinks, built-in vanity and separate water closet. Say goodbye to lugging laundry up and down stairs, as this home offers the convenience of a second-floor laundry room.
The lower level welcomes you with an expansive recreation room and soaring 10'+ ceilings. Let your imagination run wild. You can transform this space into your dream media room, exercise area, game room, or whatever other space you need. Additionally, this level includes a full bath, a work room, multiple storage spaces and convenient access to the two-car garage and one of the largest driveways in the community plus additional community visitor parking directly across the street.
Outside, the neighborhood feels like a hidden gem, offering a tucked-away ambiance while being mere minutes away from the vibrant shopping, dining and entertainment of Old Town. Commuting is a breeze with easy access to major highways such as 95 and 495, and you're just a 5-minute drive from the Huntington or Eisenhower Avenue metro stations. DCA and DC are also in close proximity. For more time outdoors, you will appreciate the nearby parks, bike trails, and water activities.
