This unique home offers 5 bedrooms on the upper level (including an expansive master suite with cathedral ceilings). Freshly painted throughout and refinished, gleaming wood floors, it's been lovingly maintained so it's truly ready to move into! MAIN level: the huge 19 x 13 living room and separate dining room make entertaining easy; the adjacent kitchen offers a large breakfast area and a pantry; the step-down family room with a wood-burning fireplace has access to the yard, garage, and mudroom (with sink and closet), and the powder room is nearby. The covered patio allows you to enjoy the flat, fenced yard with a newer shed. UPPER level: So much room! From the primary suite (11 x 15) with the dramatic cathedral ceilings, 2 closets, and a full bath to the other 4 bedrooms and renovated hall bath, it offers great flexibility ... the current owners even used one of those bedrooms for the kids' special bonus space, or it could be an ideal quiet office as well. LOWER level: Loads of storage, between the laundry/utility room and the workroom with great shelving. COMMUNITY: You can't beat the great location: minutes from the Hollin Hall Village and Belle View shops & restaurants, as well as the GW Parkway for biking, hiking, and relaxing along the Potomac River; easy commute to Fort Belvoir, Alexandria, Amazon, and downtown DC as well as Maryland and National Harbor. Convenient for libraries (Sherwood Hall and Martha Washington) and the Mount Vernon Rec Center. You can choose to join the Stratford Recreation Association or the Mount Vernon Park Association, both of which have fees and a waitlist.
