***OPEN HOUSE CANCELLED***Usually a home in Mount Vernon is all about the community, lifestyle, and commute options, because those are unparalleled benefits. But this home is special - it was the personal home of the architect who built many of the surrounding homes in the 1960's. Needless to say it was built to be the best and then had a glamorous $150,000 top to bottom renovation in 2023. The curb appeal, no through street, brand new sod and parking for 8 cars lure you in, but that's just the beginning. The second you kick off your shoes in the foyer, you'll start creating your guest list for dinner parties or cookouts, with the elegant lighting, wood trims, and high gloss floors as your canvas to conversations and memories. Yet, the covered balcony overlooking the dream oasis of a back yard is the peace and quiet you crave for morning coffee or work that requires hearing yourself think. Inside are rooms for everyone and all the natural light streaming in extra large bay windows from the front and back. The dream kitchen is at the heart of the home, surrounded by the living room, separate dining room, mud room and cozy family room with the first fireplace. Upstairs, the primary suite is unbelievable with its own fireplace, sitting room, and bathroom that rivals any luxury hotel. There are still four more bedrooms and a lovely hall bath to share on this level. Maybe you want one for music, a craft room or office. You still have a 6th bedroom in the basement that could double as a home gym or yoga studio, which also lets you keep the garage for a car or storage. The beautifully finished walk out basement boasts a Recreation Room and full bathroom for whoever does get to claim that space. Understanding you need to leave this slice of heaven for life, Wegmans and Kingstowne are less than 5 miles away, historic Occoquan is only 15 minutes away for their art festival, Fort Belvoir is 5 minutes away and the airport or DC are less than 20 minutes thanks to the scenic GW Parkway. It leaves more time to attend events or stroll historic Mount Vernon estate, or hit the trails for running or biking along the Potomac River. You can stride all the way to the Pentagon if you really want, but it's only 20 minutes by car instead.
