Charming Cape Cod on a quiet street in the City of Alexandria, offering a thoughtful layout across two finished levels plus a drive-under garage. The home is framed by professionally designed, mature landscaping and a welcoming front entry with slate walkway and covered porch. Inside, the main level opens to a bright living room with fireplace and front-facing windows, flowing into a defined dining area with chandelier and sconces. Just beyond, a spacious family room addition features windows on two sides, a second fireplace, and direct connection to the kitchen. The kitchen is designed for both everyday use and entertaining, with a cathedral ceiling, dramatic beams, and an oversized island. A wall of windows overlooks the rear yard, bringing in natural light. Features include stainless steel appliances, dual ovens, cooktop, microwave, dishwasher, farmhouse sink, and a large pantry with custom built-ins. Doors from both the kitchen and family room provide easy access to the rear patio and grilling area. The main level is anchored by a private primary suite positioned off the dining room, offering a generously sized bedroom with space for a sitting area, a walk-in closet with custom built-ins, and an en suite bath with dual vanities, a large walk-in shower, and private water closet. A dedicated laundry room is conveniently located within the suite. On the opposite side of the home are two additional bedrooms and a full bath with shower, providing separation and flexibility. The upper level adds a versatile recreation space with dormer nooks and window seats, an additional bedroom, full bath, and access to eave storage. Outdoor spaces are designed for privacy and usability, with a stone terrace, retaining walls, and pathways leading to gates on both sides of the home. Landscaping includes established plantings and seasonal color, with hydrangeas and other mature shrubs providing interest throughout the year.
