Wonderful upgraded stunning colonial in beautiful Franklin Oaks!!! Nestled on a tranquil lot backing to parkland, this lovingly maintained home has an open floorplan that includes two-story ceilings, vaulted ceilings and lots of crown molding. There are hardwood floors throughout the main level with built-ins, recessed lighting and newer windows. The living room is filled with light and opens to a large dining room with a box window overlooking trees. The gourmet kitchen has been remodeled with newer cabinetry, granite, under-cabinet lighting, glass doors and a large island with bar stool seating. There are stainless steel GE and Whirlpool appliances including a five-burner gas cooktop, a side-by-side refrigerator with ice dispenser, and double ovens. The kitchen overlooks the breakfast area and the terrific family room with a raised-hearth, brick, wood-burning fireplace. There is built-in shelving on either side of the fireplace, recessed lighting and access to the large fun deck and patio in the private rear yard. Also on this level is the versatile fifth bedroom that has access to the fourth full bath. The bedroom currently makes a great sunny office. The gracious entry foyer with a wooden bent staircase leads to the upper primary suite with a sumptuous remodeled bath with a deep soaking tub, a designer-tiled shower with frameless glass, and dual sinks. WOW!!! All four of the upstairs bedrooms have great windows, large closets, brand new carpeting and ceiling fans. The awesome lower level has a large recreation area with a gas fireplace, built-in TV area, shelving, recessed lights and a game table area. There is also a pool table with a ping pong conversion top and a wet bar with barstool seating. It has a full size refrigerator and pendant lighting. There is an exercise room / guest area with access to a newer full bath. There is an extensive storage area, along with the high-efficiency gas furnace and the brand new gas hot water heater. You will love the welcoming rear yard with the large deck and paver patio overlooking the treed parkland. Your guests can be greeted via the slate sidewalk and brick front porch or there is a terrific paver sidewalk from the front around to the back. This home has been almost completely updated throughout so that the new owners can move-in and relax!!! Even the garage flooring has been freshly painted and the 30-year wood shake roof has about another ten years of beautiful life! The sought-after Franklin Oaks community, with its large central pond and walking paths, is located near major employment centers like Tyson's Corner, Fair Lakes and the entire Dulles Technology corridor. It is convenient to the Fairfax County Parkway, Route 50, I-66 and the Dulles Access Road. Enjoy all that the nearby Reston Town Center offers!!! The home is served by the GREAT Fairfax County schools in the Oakton High School Pyramid.
