Property Description
It's been a long day and you want to come home to a relaxing place with great views of the water and sunsets. You want to hang out with your friends, entertain, and have great options for it. You like the city, but want something a little more peaceful. Well, you have come to the right place. Marina Towers is an elegant condo building on the water in North Old Town. On a cul-de-sac it is private and adjacent to national park where eagles, osprey, egrets and all types of birds and wildlife hang out. Your personal key takes you out the private gate to the Mt Vernon Bike/Jg/Walk Trail, where you can easily ride into DC, Crystal City or down to King St. If you work in DC the express bus stops at the corner. Or, the metro is not far away. We are just minutes from all major employers, military bases, and the Amazon HQ offices. Do you like to swim and sun? We have a wonderful waterfront pool that is equipped with beautiful furniture and lounge chairs. Next door is the Tiki Bar, cookout area with new commercial stainless steel grills, tables, lighting and electrical for your plug in devices. For cooks/gardeners there are garden plots available. Tight muscles? We have a sauna for that and a beautiful fitness center with river views. There's plenty of parking, a car wash area, and our own private dog park. And best of all there is a convenience store that sells pretty much everything and which does dry cleaning, fold and fluff laundry, and shoe repair. Why leave on snowy days? It's all right here. Onsite maintenance and management keeps this building running like clockwork and our daily and ongoing custodians keep it sparkling clean. The party room is fantastic and has a large TV, full kitchen, bar, and is perfect for meetings, parties, or watching the big game. This condo is larger than most in the area, is a TOP FLOOR CORNER END UNIT boasting tons of natural sunlight all day long. It faces SouthEast/West so you get sunrises, sunsets, moonrises, and water views all the way past the Wilson Bridge and over Old Town steeples. A great balcony to hang out on during 4th of July or New Years fireworks shows! The balcony is large enough for tables, chairs, seating, and even a chaise lounge for suntanning. The floors are in great condition and solid oak parquet. There are tons of closets (6 total), a walk-in closet in the master and a pantry in the kitchen. Go ahead, add barn doors and a wall to create a den in the extra living room space (example provided in photos). The rooms are large, the bedroom is huge, and your guests will have their own separate bathroom. It is also perfect for sharing if you want to have a room mate or visitors. Don/t miss your chance to buy now as North Old Town is developed into a premier destination and arts center. New restaurants, shopping, art galleries and more are planned and the work has already begun as Potomac Yards and National Harbor begin. There's plenty of info online about all of the great things coming to this North Old Town area.
