Description

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!

    "Although there are nice parks where I live, most of the family friendly neighborhoods reside in an enclosed neighborhood called Cameron Station. There is a beautiful library and it's close to Van Dorn Metro. There is a lot of traffic and some have pockets that are unsafe. The area is not pedestrian friendly. Lots of dog parks. Not stroller friendly. Eisenhower seems to have the least amount of crime but it is a busy street during the day. LA Mart is a great source for Asian groceries. The area has almost everything you need in a short distance. Schools aren't rated the best."
