    What's special

    All offers are due on Thursday August 8th at 2:00 pm. Thank you!! Amazing location in the southeast quadrant of Old Town Alexandria. This gardener’s paradise is an all brick 2-bedroom, 1.5 bath end unit and ready for your TLC to make it your own. The welcoming entryway with the new front steps, railing and louver door leads you into the living room. The living room with hardwood floors has newer Anderson windows (2023) that are throughout the main and upper levels. The kitchen with a gas stove, double sink, and plenty of cabinets has a window that looks out over the back yard. It is adjoined with a separate dining room that also looks out over the back yard and has a side door for easy access. A conveniently located half bath off the living room completes the main level. The two bedrooms and full bath are upstairs. Both bedrooms have two closets and two windows to let in a lot of natural light. Attic access is in the upper-level hallway. The potential is endless in the unfinished basement with an 8 ft. ceiling and natural light. There is a separate space for the laundry/utility/storage room and then a large open space for a family/recreation room/gym. The HVAC was replaced in 2022. The lush gardens with mature plantings on this 3000 sq ft. lot is ready to be enjoyed. There is so much space that it gives you plenty of room to add your own plantings and showcase your creativity. Relax on the large patio while barbequing and appreciating the tranquil fenced in back yard and gardens. There is even a large versatile space beyond the white picked fence with so many possibilities. It can be a vegetable gardens, work space, playground, dog area etc. There is a side front gate for easy access to the back yard. Having the historic waterfront and the many Old Town shops and restaurants just a short stroll away makes this location very desirable. There is no HOA and with this home being on a block that has a median out front it allows for so much extra street parking.
