Step into storybook charm with this beautifully updated Cape Cod, nestled on 1.35 acres of tranquil, tree-lined landscape. From the circular driveway to the enchanting views, every detail invites you to slow down and savor life at home. If you want to take the 1.35 acres and subdivide (with county approval) to build another home or two, that possibility exists. A custom front door welcomes you into a spacious foyer with built-in drop zone-perfect for coats, bags, and everyday essentials. Oak hardwood floors flow throughout the main and upper levels, creating warmth and timeless appeal. The cozy living room features a gas fireplace and seamlessly opens to the fully renovated kitchen and dining area. The kitchen is a showstopper, with stainless steel appliances, a marble backsplash, and a statement island in a rich accent color that offers extra prep space and casual seating. Entertaining is easy with a butler's pantry that leads out to the deck and patio-ideal for summer gatherings. Back inside, the main-level primary suite is a true retreat with a walk-in closet featuring custom organizers and a sleek sliding door. The luxurious en-suite bath boasts a spa-worthy rain shower with three heads, a garden tub, and double vanity-complete with built-in Bluetooth speakers to set the perfect mood. Upstairs, you'll find two generous bedrooms, and a full hall bath. Don't miss the light-filled bonus room (with its own mini-split for year-round comfort!) that can function as a play room, office, or secret library. The finished lower level offers a stylish rec room with built-ins and bar-area, recessed lighting, luxury vinyl floors, and a second gas fireplace. A glass block feature wall defines a great nook for a home office. You'll also find a large laundry and utility area with walk-out access to the fenced yard-perfect for pets or play. All this, just minutes from the Beltway and Van Dorn Street for an easy commute, and moments away from Old Town Alexandria's endless shopping and dining options! This home is the perfect blend of character, comfort, and convenience-don't miss your chance to make it yours!
