The temperature is getting cooler, and you’ve just opened a new book under the shade of the crepe myrtle, a warm cup of tea within reach. A light breeze moves through the garden, and a few pages in, you’re hooked. This is the kind of afternoon the mature landscaping and private outdoor spaces at 801 Chetworth were made for. Tucked into Old Town’s sought-after NE Quadrant, it feels like your own little sliver of Europe, quiet, charming, and surrounded by greenery. Inside, the home feels just as inviting. Professionally painted throughout with all-new lighting and fresh carpet in the lower-level rec room, it’s ready for its next chapter. Three finished levels give you flexibility to spread out, with three bedrooms upstairs, two full baths, and plenty of room for a home office, movie nights, overnight guests, or all three. And when you’re ready to trade the quiet garden for a little more excitement, Old Town is right outside your door. Stroll to Buzz for coffee, Rustico for dinner, Trader Joe’s for groceries, or Vaso’s for a neighborhood favorite. Picnic, play, or spend an afternoon at nearby Chetworth Park, then wander toward King Street and the waterfront when the mood strikes. And when you need to venture beyond Old Town, the Braddock Road Metro is just over half a mile away with access to the Blue and Yellow lines. The GW Parkway, Route 1, King Street, and I-395 are also close by, making trips into DC and around NOVA easy. It’s the balance making this location so special: historic Old Town just beyond your doorstep and a peaceful, leafy retreat waiting for you when you come home.
