Property Description
FULL OF SURPRISES - From the outside you'd never guess what awaits you within this charming Cape Cod style home. Comfortably located in the desirable Braddock Heights neighborhood this solidly-constructed residence, built in 1960, embraces its mid century roots that have seamlessly merged over the years with the stylish magnetism we all love today. With a classic brick facade, entering through the front door the main level spaces are connected by gleaming hardwood floors, crown molding and the neutral freshly painted walls. A brilliantly updated eat-in kitchen boasts custom banquette seating, ample cabinet storage, recessed lighting, granite counters and stainless appliances. Flow from the kitchen into the separate dining room that features chair rail accent and Grecian inspired columns all open to a spacious and bright living room with wood burning fireplace with mantel and brick hearth. Enhancing this already sunny room are sliding glass doors that lead to the backyard making entertaining inside and out easy. Finishing out this level, and a serious bonus, is the convenience of a large master bedroom and updated full bath with walk-in shower and bench. If one level living is an option you seek, then look no further! Located upstairs are three graciously sized bedrooms with hardwood floors, calming paint colors and a shared full hallway bathroom. Moving to the lower level, with a lush cream palette throughout, pour your favorite "poison" from the wet bar and then kickback and watch the latest on demand from the comfort of the family room. An alcove of built-in shelves can showcase a large collection of DVDs, books or lovable tchotchkes. The homes fifth and final bedroom, with a full bath completes this floor, and is a great space for guests/in-laws/au-pair to rest. To close out the appeal of this lovely residence, is the unexpected outdoor retreat. Accessed from the living room, casual or formal entertaining will spill effortlessly out onto the patio area where tiered levels and stairs reveal professional landscaping and at the very top an actual sports court with basketball hoop and storage shed. Located so close to Old Town and Shirlington, where endless dining out, shopping and social engagement options await, moving into 2601 Valley Drive will be the easiest decision you make all year!
