Nestled in the charming Westgate subdivision, this delightful bungalow exudes warmth and character. This home features a traditional floor plan that seamlessly blends comfort with functionality. Step inside to discover beautiful hardwood floors and a true touch of charm. You will hear "charm" mentioned quite a bit here because that's what this house is...charming, charming, charming. It is perfect for someone looking to downsize, looking for a 2nd home that they can use while in town on business or to see the grandkids or for someone that wants that single floor living. It's also great for a small family looking to get into a great neighborhood for under a million dollars. The basement is perfect for your workshop, storage or even a place for your kids to play (with the right touches). There are two bedrooms on the main floor, with a full bath as well. As you move upstairs, you will find a finished loft area which boasts a sitting/office area on one side and a perfect spot for guests, grandkids or your own kids to play and sleep on the other side. As you float back down to the first floor, you will find a comfortable living room, a dining area and a fabulous kitchen with a window that looks out to the side yard. The kitchen flows through to a back sunroom/laundry room/mud room that provides access to the basement and the back yard/deck. The deck is surrounded by a 6 foot privacy fence and it's the perfect spot to read the morning paper, have some coffee or wind down in the afternoon with a refreshing cocktail. Just imagine yourself dozing off with a great book, in a comfortable hammock and under the shade of a gorgeous, mature tree. The community pool, just a short stroll away, offers a refreshing escape during warm days and is the ultimate in community charm. This house is the epitome of 'centrally located" too. You are only minutes from bike paths, downtown DC, Friendship Heights, Bethesda, the Crescent Trail, MacArthur Blvd, the canal, the Potomac river and all the great shops in Spring Valley (Millie's, Crate & Barrel, Starbucks, Wagshal's Deli) and more. You can walk to the Metro and it's perfect for those seeking a blend of tranquility and accessibility.
