Consider the possibilities in this opportunity to use your visionary skills to rehab this 1943 Cape Cod one and a half story house into a sparkling jewel. Located on a quiet street in the Penrose community, this hidden gem is minutes from all that hustle and bustle in the Columbia Pike corridor and Ballston Metro hub. If you missed the annual Arlington County Fair (established in 1976) in mid August, you have time to catch it next year with a short walk from your home as the new owner of 2522 4th Street S. With its simple symmetrical shape, this classic Cape Cod property has a main level boasting two bedrooms and a full bath with an upper level primary bedroom and private full bath. Enjoy indoor and outdoor gatherings in this memory-filled home. Gathering spaces include the light-filled sunporch which is ideal for casual dining or filled with chairs for a book club or mahjong group. In the spring or early autumn evenings consider inviting friends to sit in lawn chairs on the side yard for conversation and light appetizers while sipping a favorite beverage. Come take a tour with a discerning eye to determine how you can transform this charming comfortable abode into a gold framed masterpiece! NOTE: THIS HOME IS SOLD "AS IS". An offer must include the Contingencies/Clauses Addendum (NVAR-K1344). Floor plan is uploaded for your review. DEADLINE FOR OFFERS IS FRIDAY, 8/28, at 6:00PM.
