Property Description
An offer deadline has been set for Tuesday., 6/29 at noon. If you are looking for WOW factor in a house, look no further! This exquisite storybook Four-Square Colonial in Arlingtons wonderful Historic Maywood community delivers it in overdrive! With its romantic wrap-around front porch, spacious rear sunroom, and large, level backyard, you will absolutely love the space that this home provides. Built in 1910, this house was one of the original gateway homes into the Maywood community just off the former Lee Highway trolley line. It was renovated and expanded in 1984, and then again in 1992, when the huge living room with its 10-foot ceilings and dramatic bay window was added. In 2011, the entire interior of this home was completely remodeled and upgraded to include all new plumbing & electrical systems as well as restored historic period details. No expense was spared during this renovation. It is a perfect blend of the historic and the new, and it is a true stunner! The main level floors are crafted from 100 year-old heart of pine wood planks reclaimed from a former factory in Central Virginia. The roof is authentic pressed metal and has an 80-year warranty. Gingerbread railings frame the huge wrap around porch, which you can enjoy as you relax on your delightful hanging porch swing. An original light fixture from 1910 illuminates the super functional mud room and its adjacent food pantry. Solid wood doors, glass knobs, & period rosette moldings throughout the home blend perfectly with the modern upgrades to honor the historical roots of this home within a fabulously comfortable and elegant modernity. The kitchen is just massive, with dozens of cabinets and acres of authentic Jerusalem Stone countertops. Chefs will love the combination range, with its gas stove top and electric oven. French doors from both the kitchen and the living room draw you into the three-season solarium, and you will not be able to keep out of this room! It is perfect for entertaining friends, relaxing with a cup of coffee or an evening cocktail, and enjoying the beautiful views onto and through the massive rear yard that this home has. Finding a quarter acre fenced lot that is completely level in this part of Arlington is not easy, but this home offers if gladly. A main level bedroom was added along with a fully accessible bathroom with roll-in shower. The library offers a perfect place to curl up with a good book, or to create a work-from-home office space. The main bedroom on the upper level has a massive walk-in closet and en-suite bath with dual sinks, a glass door shower and private water closet. Three other generous bedrooms and a large hall bath grace this level, along with the conveniently placed bedroom-level laundry area. Pull-down stairs lead to a spacious wood-floored attic with loads of storage. An unfinished basement also provides additional storage. The rear patio is perfect for grilling and relaxing around the fire pit, and the off-street driveway can easily accommodate two cars. The house conveys with Arlington County-approved plans for a detached rear garage or work shop that can be added onto the property if desired. This home is within blocks to Safeway and Giant grocery stores, restaurants, shops, Cherrydale Hardware, Capital BikeShare, Metro Bus stops, and is within a mile to the Clarendon metro station, Whole Foods, Trader Joe's and all of the wonderful amenities found nearby.
