Property Description
Truly an exceptional home and an exceptional opportunity to own a gorgeous home in the heart of Old Town Alexandria. This three-level townhome with 2 Bedrooms, 4 Baths, and a den, is located in the prestigious and highly coveted Watergate of Alexandria on the northeast quadrant of Old Town. It offers so many updates and upgrades, there are just too many to list! Only 100 all-brick townhomes with beautifully landscaped grounds and lovely brick privacy walls. Over 1600 square feet of impeccably maintained living space, this beautifully updated home offers two bedrooms, along with a cozy light-filled den and four updated baths. All rooms offer beautiful crown moldings, and custom plantation shutters are found throughout, which are just two examples of the attention to detail and ambiance of this home. Upon entering the home, the bright foyer with soaring ceilings greets you. Next, you will find a gorgeous renovated gourmet kitchen that is most certainly not your typical space for preparing meals. Brazilian Cherry custom cabinetry, with pullout drawer pantry, corner cupboards, built-in appliance nook, granite countertops, striking flooring, and a Viking refrigerator along with other top-of-the-line appliances and improvements. A convenient and dedicated closet houses the full-sized washer and dryer. A lovely private half bath and spacious walk-in hall closet for coats and storage is also found on this floor. The home's bright and inviting dining room is found just beyond the kitchen. It is quite expansive and can entertain a large crowd, as well as an intimate dinner for just a few. . There is room for seating, along with a large table, and buffet. The window and door offer lovely views and access to the exceptional private patio - perfect for dinners under the stars, or brunch on sunny Sunday mornings. The second floor offers an expansive living room with a wood-burning fireplace with an impressive mantel and flanked by beautiful built-in cabinetry. What a perfect place to wind down at the end of a long day, enjoy a crackling fire in the winter, and watch your favorite movie, or read a great book! Down the hall, you will find a cheerful den, perfect for a music room, office, or a guest to stay in. A lovely attached updated half bath is available, and a large walk-in closet with organizers is found in this room. When it is time to retreat for the evening, the two large bedrooms, each with lovely updated en suite full baths, are located on the third floor. Spacious closets and ceiling fans are found in each bedroom. Wondering about extra storage? No need to worry! Pull-down stairs give access to the very large floored attic. This oversized attic space offers extra storage and easy access. This home offers two side-by-side parking spaces in the convenient and secured garage. Two convenient charging stations have been installed in each space. Bike storage is also available in the garage. HVAC was updated in 2017, top of the line replacement windows were installed in 2014 with a transferrable warranty. All appliances are top-of-the-line, and the HOA maintains the beautiful grounds, roof, and chimney. At only two blocks from the Potomac River and a quick walk to shopping, and fine restaurants, this home offers top amenities and all of the charm that Old Town has to offer. A lovely park with a bonus dog park is located directly across the street. Old Town offers so much to enjoy and do. Stroll the historic streets, walk on the river trails, dine at the waterfront and enjoy the many fine shops this community is known for. This is most certainly one of the best places to call home in northern Virginia!
