Welcome to 5503 Helmsdale Lane, a beautiful and well-loved all-brick two-level Greenbrier model in Alexandria’s always desirable Hayfield Farm. This fine one-owner residence has excellent curb appeal and is sited on almost a third of an acre lot. Classic hardwood floors flow through the main level. Natural light streams in from the bay window in the living room. There are three bedrooms on the main level and one includes custom built-in shelves. A wonderfully cheerful sunroom extension with a cathedral ceiling provides extra space for easy relaxation and social gatherings. Downstairs, there’s a cozy wood-burning fireplace and elegant built-ins in the rec room, a bonus room, tons of storage and a full bath. Stairs lead up to the large flat fully-fenced rear grounds with its handsome brick patio, mature trees and terrific shed with electricity. There’s a brand new electric panel box with a whole-house surge protector. A new hot water heater was installed two years ago and all outlets have been replaced. Hayfield Farm is ideally located near everywhere you want to go - Metro, two town centers, all commuter routes, Fort Belvoir, Wegman’s and more! It’s also just a quick hop to Old Town Alexandria.
