Classic custom-built rambler home ready for you! 4 Bedrooms, 3 full Bathrooms, an inviting Great Room, a large open-concept gourmet Kitchen with table space and access to a large rear deck, a classic formal Living Room, a “pub-style” Rec Room with custom wet bar, a spacious lower level Laundry Room with direct access to the large 1-car attached Garage, and stunning outdoor landscaped area in a park-like setting are just some of the outstanding features of this classic custom-built rambler home. 2 fully finished levels with so many updates and upgrades. Original hardwood floors throughout the main level in classic chestnut color to match any decor style. Beautiful custom Kitchen is the heart of the home, with hardwood floors, ample cabinet and countertop space, cooking island, and plenty of seating for small meals or large gatherings (Kitchen chandelier does not convey). Butler's Pantry alcove makes for a perfect coffee bar or service area. Kitchen opens to an inviting Great Room with a large masonry fireplace and enlarged windows that lets in so much light and backyard views. 3 Bedrooms and 2 full Bathrooms on the main level accommodates "one floor living" convenience or aging in place. Spacious Primary Bedroom has an attached Bathroom. Park-like backyard means you can enjoy meals on the large rear deck or garden below and "escape from it all" after a long day. The lower level Recreation Room has a fun "pub-like" vibe - great for hosting events, game time, or cozy quiet moments. Lower level 4th Bedroom with brand new (2024) carpeting is spacious and private for overflow guests or family. 3rd Full Bathroom remodeled late 2023. Ample Laundry Room with extra cabinet and countertop areas plus access to huge storage room makes this a super multi-purpose area for laundry, crafting, cleaning chores, or update for kitchenette use (freestanding stove conveys; will need new permit for installation) and provides interior access to generous 1-car rear entry garage. Storage galore on the lower level with 2 rooms - one includes a workbench and the other is perfect for a future wine-cellar. This home is conveniently located in the sought-after West Alexandria/Bailey's Crossroads/Falls Church area, within minutes to Lake Barcroft, Old Town Alexandria, several schools, parks, shopping, and some of the best highly-rated restaurants and eateries in Northern Virginia! Not to mention this entire neighborhood is nestled between several parks that include biking and hiking trails, and 2 membership pools. Fairfax County schools and services.
