Property Description
Charming Updated Home with Expansive Private Yard & Prime Location
Welcome to this beautifully updated home nestled on an exceptionally large and private 1/3-acre wooded lot—an outdoor oasis just minutes from the heart of the city.
There is plenty of land to expand this home and add additions to the existing home to make this your dream home in the city. The home is surrounded by lush gardens that also features a serene gazebo and outdoor bar, perfect for entertaining, along with a large shed or workshop offering endless possibilities.
Inside, you'll find a spacious and thoughtfully maintained layout with 3 large bedrooms and a versatile bonus room that can serve as a 4th bedroom, home office, or guest suite. The home boasts 2 full bathrooms and a large finished basement ideal for recreation, relaxing, or extended living space.
Recent upgrades include newly reconditioned hardwood floors throughout, fresh interior and exterior paint, and a modernized kitchen with stainless steel appliances (fridge, dishwasher, and stove approx. 2022). The roof was replaced in 2015, insulation updated in 2017, and a new hot water heater was installed in December 2024. The air conditioning unit is on an annual service plan and is in excellent condition.
Located just 3 minutes from I-395 and close to Seven Corners, Shirlington, Landmark, Crystal City, and Washington, DC, this home offers both tranquility and unbeatable convenience to shops, restaurants, and major commuter routes. Metro bus stop for the Pentagon across the street.
Don't miss this rare combination of indoor comfort and outdoor retreat in an unbeatable city location!
