Entertaining is a delight in the sun-filled dining room, accentuated by three elegant French doors that open out to the deck. From here, steps lead down to a serene, enclosed brick patio—your secluded haven for morning coffees and evening unwinding under the gorgeous Magnolia tree. The main level also features a convenient guest bedroom with a skylight, built-in bookshelves and an attached full bath, providing comfort and privacy for your visitors. Additionally, a separate study/den addition offers a versatile space for a home office or cozy family room. Upstairs, two generous bedrooms await, including one with exquisite built-in shelving that adds both character and practical storage solutions. The masterful use of space and thoughtful details throughout this home truly make it a standout. Easy parking in the one-car garage with inside access or the multiple-car paved driveway. Extra street parking on both sides for guests. Situated on a fantastic corner lot, this property enjoys the benefits of its prime location - located right off W Braddock Road, a main thoroughfare for Alexandria.
