This four-bedroom, 2 ½ bathroom home beautifully merges the allure of yesteryear with contemporary comforts and style. Step through the inviting portico into a world of timeless charm, highlighted by hardwood floors that flow throughout the home. The spacious living room, with its recently relined wood-burning fireplace and elegant built-ins, offers a perfect setting for relaxation and hosting. Adjacent to this, a cozy home office space provides a quiet retreat for work or study. The center of this home is its galley kitchen, featuring maple cabinetry and sleek granite countertops, which adjoins a formal dining area and also features a passthrough window into the large family room addition. This stunning space is enclosed with three walls of glass, affording panoramic views of the expansive, fenced backyard—a gardener's paradise adorned with mature plantings including white lilies, peonies, Scottish Gorse, azaleas, roses, and more. The outdoor living is enhanced with a brick-lined patio, Trex deck, and convenient rear gate access for deliveries and off-street parking. The main level also houses two well-appointed bedrooms and an updated full bathroom, while the upper level offers two additional generously sized bedrooms—one with an adaptable “bonus room.” The home’s second full bathroom is conveniently located on this level. Descend to the lower level to discover a large finished area currently serving as a guest space, ideal also as a playroom, recreation room, or workout area. This level is complete with a new half bathroom, a full-sized washer and dryer, a workshop, and ample storage space. Situated near Dyke Marsh Wildlife Preserve and Mt. Vernon Trail, this property is not just a home but a gateway to outdoor adventures and a nature-filled lifestyle. Enjoy easy access to Dyke Marsh, the Mt. Vernon Trail, as well as the Belle Haven Marina. Take advantage of the proximity to a variety of dining and shopping options at the Belle View shopping center as well as the Mt. Vernon Rec Center, complete with ice rinks and a pool. (Scheduled to reopen in 2025 after a 75,000 sq. ft. expansion.) With a conveniently located bus stop offering access to multiple destinations, you're seamlessly connected to the heart of Old Town, our Nation's Capital, Reagan National Airport, the Pentagon, National Harbor, Huntington Metro, Fort Belvoir, Bolling AFB, the George Washington Parkway, and the 495/95 interchange.

6409 Potomac Avenue is more than just a house; it's a sanctuary where every detail contributes to a lifestyle of warmth and charm. Don't miss the opportunity to make this splendid property your new home.
