Welcome to 5233 Ballycastle Circle, a beautifully updated Emerson model with a garage backing to trees in the north end of Alexandria’s always sought-after Kingstowne. This home is light, bright and modern. It’s been exquisitely reimagined from top-to-bottom and features thoughtful design choices throughout. The entrance foyer is on the ground level so the lower level is cheery and welcoming. The rec room has new recessed lighting, LVP floors, a classic fireplace with a marble surround and a detailed wood mantel. There’s also space for an office nook. Step out and stairs lead you to the flagstone patio and fully-fenced rear grounds. On the main level you’ll love the refinished hardwood floors and the tastefully remodeled kitchen. Its three windows illuminate elegant cabinetry, stylish pulls, quartz counters, unique backsplash, premium black stainless appliances and chic pendant lighting. The counter extends for informal barstool seating. The living room has 10-foot ceilings, crown molding, a slotted ceiling where a motorized screen comes down for a projector and a sliding glass door to a sweet deck overlooking trees. Upstairs, the owner’s suite has views of trees, soaring vaulted ceilings, a plant/art shelf and a roomy walk-in closet. All baths have been fashionably renovated and the classy owner’s bath features a sliding barn-door entrance and an oversized shower with glass doors and refined tilework. This sun-lit and appealing three-level home is super-close to the Kingstowne Town Center, Metro, all commuter routes, Fort Belvoir and more. It is also just a quick hop to Old Town Alexandria!
