Welcome to 5912 3rd St S, a spacious 4 bed/2 bath Arlington home located on a cul-de-sac and part of the Washington-Liberty school pyramid. On the main level, enjoy two light-filled living spaces, one of which is a bright sunroom, the perfect place for reading, dining, or entertaining year-round. The eat-in kitchen has ample cabinets, multiple counters and prep spaces, and a gas range. The main level's living space is further expanded by access to the Trex deck off the sunroom. Outside, you can enjoy both the deck, for grilling and lounging, and the green space for pets and gardening. There is also a shed in the back that is wired for electricity, ideal for a workshop, studio, or extra storage. Back inside, the second level has three well-sized bedrooms and a full hall bathroom. The lower level offers additional recreation space with LVP flooring (added in 2023), a fourth bedroom, a recently renovated bathroom (2023), and laundry and storage space. The washer and dryer were replaced in 2024. This home is conveniently located within walking distance of Kenmore Middle School, the Glencarlyn Library, and Carlin Springs Park, and it is only a 5-minute drive to Target, Safeway, Trader Joe's, and a plethora of dining options. For commuters, the home is located moments from Route 50, for access to the DC, the Pentagon, 66, and more. Do not miss your chance to tour this updated and centrally located Arlington home! A full set of professional photos is coming on October 8th!
