Description

Open House - Saturday 10/18 - 1:00pm - 3:00pm Welcome home to this charming 4-bedroom center-hall colonial, nestled in a quiet, friendly neighborhood that you're sure to adore. We've poured our hearts into making this house truly special, with thoughtful updates like a brand-new roof (2021), a gas water heater (2022), HVAC installed (2018), and a complete electrical rewire – think new panel, outlets, and even handy USB/C switches for all your devices. The garage floor now boasts a sleek epoxy finish, and laundry day is a breeze with the new LG stack washer/dryer (2023). Our kitchen is a dream, featuring freshly painted cabinets with convenient pull-out drawers, a modern touchless sink and faucet (2025), a spacious KitchenAid refrigerator (2023), and a dishwasher (2024). Inside, you'll love the new flooring throughout, updated lighting and ceiling fans that add a cozy glow, and elegant wainscoting, crown, and picture-frame molding that elevate every room. Even the half bath has been refreshed for a touch of luxury. We've also added all new doors, including beautiful French doors with built-in blinds, a welcoming double front entry with a storm door, and easy access to the garage and yard. Outside, you'll find new landscaping, a neatly fenced trash pad, enjoy the newly added raised garden beds and freshly poured concrete side walkway (2025), perfect for easy outdoor maintenance and organization, and an extended front garage pad. Our favorite spot is the spacious quarter-acre backyard, a true oasis with a fantastic tree house (complete with swings, a slide, and a sandbox!) and a cozy fire pit – perfect for making memories with loved ones. The location truly can't be beat, just minutes from the Metro, Fort Belvoir, and the charm of Old Town. Plus, you'll enjoy easy access to the Pentagon and major commuter routes throughout Fairfax County. We know you'll love living here as much as we have!

  • Trulia User
    "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."
  • Trulia User
    "It’s historic and beautiful! I’ve lived here for three years and I don’t want to move anywhere else. "
  • Trulia User
    "It’s a family friendly neighborhood. I barely see my neighbors. There’s shops and restaurants nearby. Good location for commuters because it’s close to DC and on the borderline of Arlington. "
  • Trulia User
    "Great location and safe to walk around. Will stay here as long as I am in the DC area. Walkable to Del Rey and free public transport to the pentagon using the DASH busses."
  • Trulia User
    "Fantastic park space and bike path walk to everything and don't even need a car so Brandon can't control you...yay"
  • Trulia User
    "This has all kinds of neighborhood festivals. Fireworks on New Year’s Eve. ***************************"
