THIS is the one you have been waiting for in Old Town Alexandria! Nothing to do but move-in. You will not find a better restoration - modernized and improved for today's conveniences, but finished in absolutely perfect period detail (down to the doorknobs) so you don't lose that spectacular Old Town charm! After purchasing the home in 2019, the current owners got to work to make this fabulous two-level historic space more livable and smart. Starting with new Pella high energy efficient windows (including hurricane glass on the main level and true to historic detail with Italianate wooden frames with actual divided light panels) and completely renovating the kitchen layout so that you have an exit to the private courtyard from the main home and a functional laundry room. This renovation really opened up and enlarged the kitchen space, making it perfect for even the most discerning chef! Top of the line appliances, custom cabinets and expansive Quartz countertops make this truly a dream kitchen. The wall of windows that lead to the private courtyard bring in so much natural light! The hardwood floors, as well as the wood work, were refinished and repaired throughout the home, bringing back to life the gorgeous flooring and trim. Lighting was updated in the kitchen, dining and hallways, but carefully selected to capture the vibe of the 1900 architecture and detail. Modern conveniences such as custom shelving from Closet America were added to make storage more functional in all of the bedrooms. Built-in bookshelves were reimagined in the formal living area - perfect to relax by the cozy wood-burning fireplace. Truly no detail was overlooked here! Upstairs you will find 3 bedrooms, including a primary with THREE closets, an en suite bathroom and plenty of space for a king-sized bed. The hallway leads to two other bedrooms, a light-filled gallery space and finally a bonus family room that is perfect for movie night, with built in bookshelves and a cozy space that could also double as guest lodging. The spacious courtyard area is shaded with a mature Magnolia tree and the ambience is just perfect! Hot tub and cover both convey and you can not find this sort of charming outdoor space here in Old Town. The decking is Brazilian Ipe and just warms up the space connecting the main home and the semi-attached garage (the courtyard was also waterproofed and a drain system was installed in 2019). There is also an automatic irrigation system. Over the last four years other improvements have been made, such as converting the water heater to a tankless system and adding drywall, an epoxy floor and recessed lighting to the garage. Just this summer, outdoor shutters were replaced and the roof was patched and coated (carries a warranty transferable to the new owners). There really is nothing more to do except pack your bags! Located in the heart of Old Town, you cannot beat the location! On a quieter residential street, but just 4 blocks to the many shops and restaurants on King Street, Trader Joe's and Harris Teeter, 7 blocks to the Braddock Road Metro Station (approx half a mile) and 8 blocks to the Waterfront. Off street parking and storage abounds in the attached garage PLUS the attic has over 200 SF of additional storage space as well. This truly is an opportunity not to be missed!
