Fantastic renovated three story colonial located in quiet Overlee Knolls with a fantastic location - just 0.7m to the East Falls Church Metro and 0.6m to highly sought after Westover.
The red brick colonial has an inviting portico, black shutters, and side entrance into a mudroom. Upon entering the front door, you're greeted with light soaring through the storm door into a charming family room with renovated gas fireplace and new tile surround, hardwood floors and a coat closet. To the right you'll find the side addition with mudroom and storage or use it as a sun room with access to the deck. Continuing on the main level, to the left of the front door, is an updated dining room with custom wood wainscotting, hardwood floors, a powder room, pantry, and then you walk into a spacious and sunny renovated kitchen with white shaker cabinets, Quartz Counters, vent hood above the professional grade Bluestar 36” gas range with 6 burners, Bosch Refrigerator with ice/water dispenser, tile backsplash, Bosch dishwasher, and eat-in kitchen space with tons of windows. Don't miss the secret bonus drawer in the toe kick next to the range! Off the kitchen there’s a door to the large deck (23 feet by 18.5 feet) with stairs to the amazing yard.
The real showstopper of this North Arlington home is the yard. The basement walks out to a patio, which is only part of the large backyard. Owners of this home get to enjoy an extra 18.5’ of side yard thanks to the side lot (see survey). The current owners redid the retaining wall in 2021 and included stone hardscaping, landscape lighting, French drains, and new landscaping to really upgrade and showcase the backyard, which is one of their favorite features of the home and what they’ll miss most (besides the wonderful neighbors).
The upper level of this home features a large primary suite with vaulted ceilings, custom blinds, a ceiling fan, a mini split for extra temperature comfort, a walk-in closet, and an en-suite bathroom with skylight, dual sinks, and a walk-in shower. The hallway has a bathroom with a tub that is shared by the two secondary bedrooms, each with hardwood floors.
The lower level features built-in bookshelves at the base of the stairs. There are engineered hardwoods throughout, with a built-in wet-bar with beverage center. The large rec room has recessed lighting, door to the yard, and a mini split for extra temperature control. Additionally, there’s a 3rd full bathroom with a storage closet and the laundry area. The utility room features additional storage.
The home has a driveway perfect for two cars to park next to each other, in addition to parking on the street (no permit required).
