Welcome to this gem of a home that marries the charm of yesteryear with the sophisticated upgrades of today. The interior of this 2,430 sq. ft. raised rambler is a masterclass in tasteful design and contemporary amenities. The wood-burning fireplace creates a focal point in the welcoming family room that flows gracefully into the dining area where sunlight pirouettes through replacement windows, casting a warm glow on the refinished oak hardwood floors. The kitchen with a new opening to the dining area displays Calcutta Gold quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances and rich brown luxury vinyl plank floors. Down the hall is an inviting primary bedroom suite complete with a remodeled attached bathroom and ample closet space. Two generously sized bedrooms share an updated full bathroom.
Wander down the stairs to the welcoming rec room where the built-in bar, completely renovated full bath and cozy wood burning fireplace create the perfect atmosphere for movie night or gatherings to watch sporting events. A home office, laundry room and spacious storage room or gym complete the floor plan designed for everyday living, playing and working from home.
Built in 1978, this home stands proudly on an 18,206 sq. ft. lot set high off the street with a grand circular driveway. The exterior, dressed in a palette of earthy brick hues, harmonizes with the meticulously maintained lawns and gardens. The backyard houses a large deck, spacious shed and expansive lush lawn for outdoor games, barbecues and dining under the stars.
Living in the Mount Vernon area means being close to history, education, shopping and the water. Mount Vernon, George Washington’s estate along the banks of the Potomac River, is just a short drive away while the local schools are within blocks. On Route 1, you’ll find restaurants and stores to meet your every need. Strolling, running or biking along the scenic Potomac River bike trail is a popular activity enjoyed by local residents.
