Welcome to this charming semi-detached row house, nestled in the heart of Arlington! This delightful residence boasts a prime location with a walk score of 90, embodying the essence of urban convenience and comfort. Walking up, you will immediately see its beauty with the mature landscaping including the stunning native dogwood and Japanese red maple. Upon entering, you'll be captivated by the care and attention to detail that the owners have put into this home starting with the front mudroom, a feature that very few row homes possess. In 2016, they enclosed front porch to add this functional space with its slate tile floor, electric heat and new insulated Provia front door. The bright and sunny living room flows seamlessly to the lovingly renovated the kitchen. By removing a wall, they were able to double its size and added new floors, cabinetry, granite countertops and high end appliances included a Bosch gas range and dishwasher, KitchenAid vent hood and deep Franke stainless sink. There are even in-ceiling Bose speakers. For all the amazing meals you will prepare in this chef's kitchen, you have your choice of grocery stores Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, Harris Teeter and Giant are a reasonable stroll or short drive away. Or, if ordering takeout or dining out is your thing, you have easy access to all the restaurants and bars from Clarendon to Ballston. Upstairs, you will find 3 sunny bedrooms and a charming vintage bath, updated with a beautiful marble floor. Venture downstairs to discover the finished basement, thoughtfully designed to offer versatility as a cozy family room or an additional bedroom thanks to the addition of an egress window. An additional full bath and storage add to its functionality. If you love spending time outside, not only do you have a lovely backyard shaded by a dawn redwood offering the perfect space for gatherings, play or simply unwinding after a long day, but nearby parks abound. The home backs onto Gumball Park, the cutest pocket park you will find in Arlington where they host holiday events and a happy hour the first Friday of every month. For running, walking or biking, you have access to the Custis Trail less than a mile away. If you love to bike, there is secure bike storage off the alley. There are tennis courts across the street and Quincy Park offers fields, basketball and beach volleyball courts. Or, if winter sports are more your thing, the Capitals Iceplex is nearby. Commuting is a breeze with the location just two blocks from the Virginia Square Metro. Or, if you drive, you will never have to hunt for parking thanks to your private off-street parking space. Don't miss your chance to own this meticulously maintained home in one of Arlington's most coveted neighborhoods.
