Welcome home to this beautiful, expanded Cape Cod located in Bucknell Manor, Alexandria. Much larger than it looks from the curb, this property includes four bedrooms plus 2.5 bathrooms, with a bonus room off the primary bedroom that can be used as a nursery, office, or sitting room. On the main level, in addition to a large living room, two bedrooms and 1.5 baths, the house offers a light-filled open floor plan in the back to include an updated kitchen, dining area, and great room. The upstairs level includes two expanded bedrooms and a full bath, as well as the bonus room.
Off the back of the house is a deck for outdoor eating, a thoughtfully designed bluestone patio with ample space for peaceful relaxation, and a yard large enough for kids and dogs and adults to enjoy. The oversized shed offers plenty of space for tools, storage, and a workroom.
An extremely attractive feature of this property is its adjacency to Mount Vernon Park, and the house takes every opportunity to take advantage of this fact. The primary bedroom on the second floor, which offers unobstructed views of 90 acres of parkland, has a private balcony, an ideal spot to start your day with a cup of coffee or wind down at night with a glass of wine. Watching the birds from the quiet backyard patio or taking a stroll or bike on the park trails (directly accessible from the property) is like living in the country, while still being ideally located in the DC metro area.
High-efficiency appliances and a super quiet central air conditioner and gas furnace with high-efficiency filters and a whole house humidifier ensure your comfort all year round. The laundry/utility/mudroom includes a half bath, extra utility sink, and front-loading stacked washer and dryer.
This home has undergone a major renovation all the way down to the studs, almost doubling the living space from 1080 square feet to almost 1900 square feet. Plumbing, electrical, insulation, roofing, and siding were all completely replaced. Extensive drainage and grading were installed and landscaped gardens designed.
