A welcoming entry foyer sets the tone with graceful lighting, crown molding, and abundant natural light. The heart of the home is a beautifully appointed, chef-inspired kitchen featuring classic paneled cabinetry, expansive granite countertops, and a generous center island ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. High-end Viking and Bosch stainless steel appliances include a professional-grade gas range with a statement hood, seamlessly blending performance with polished design. The kitchen flows effortlessly into the dining and living areas, creating an open and inviting layout. A terrace located just off the breakfast area and family room offers the perfect setting for al fresco dining and provides convenient access from the kitchen. A gas grill with a dedicated gas connection enhances functionality, while the breakfast area is highlighted by a striking statement mirror that adds both light and visual interest. The light-filled family room is anchored by a gas fireplace with a crisp white mantel, flanked by custom built-in shelving and cabinetry. Plantation shutters filter natural light while adding timeless character, and recessed lighting complements the home’s warm, neutral palette. Surround-sound speakers and stereo system create an inviting ambiance, ideal for both entertaining and everyday enjoyment. The entry level offers exceptional versatility, featuring a cozy recreation room, library, or sitting area with plush carpeting, custom-built-ins, and a fireplace, ideal for relaxing, working from home, or hosting guests. An entry-level bedroom with a walk-in closet and en-suite bath may also function as a private home office or study. The flexible floor plan allows the space to adapt effortlessly to your lifestyle. Both guest baths have been tastefully renovated with spa-inspired finishes, including frameless glass walk-in showers, classic subway tile accented with designer mosaic details, statement countertops, and polished chrome fixtures. The owner’s suite is a serene retreat featuring a tray ceiling, two custom walk-in closets, hardwood flooring, plantation shutters, and a modern ceiling fan. The luxurious en-suite bath showcases a double-sink vanity, a large soaking tub, and a walk-in shower finished in tumbled marble, offering timeless elegance and comfort. Additional highlights include hardwood flooring throughout the main living areas, ample storage, and a clean, functional garage with an overhead storage rack. Thoughtful updates, quality materials, and a flowing floor plan come together to create a refined home that balances sophistication with everyday comfort. Set within the highly sought-after Potomac Greens community, this home offers unparalleled convenience to Amazon HQ2, the Virginia Tech Innovation Campus, and the Potomac Yard Metro. Community amenities include scenic nature trails, brick-paved sidewalks, a clubhouse with a meeting/party room, a fitness center, a heated outdoor pool, landscaped pocket parks, and tot lots. Just minutes from Old Town Alexandria’s waterfront, the shops and restaurants of Del Ray, and with easy access to the George Washington Parkway and the Mount Vernon bike trail, this location also provides quick connectivity to I-495, I-395, and I-95. Only two traffic lights to downtown Washington, D. C., and Reagan National Airport, this is a rare opportunity to own a truly exceptional townhome where timeless craftsmanship meets modern luxury, delivering an unparalleled lifestyle in one of Northern Virginia’s most desirable communities.
