Overview

This end-unit townhouse, resting in the heart of Old Town, boasts a charming blend of historic character and modern amenities. Set under the shade of the magnificent Elm tree, the house emanates a tranquil, treehouse vibe, enhanced by the ever-changing foliage view from the cozy bedrooms. The inherently cozy home offers unique features such as a charming English kitchen, and an old-world "Judge?s chambers" office with inspired wooden paneling. The home is an embodiment of timeless elegance and durability, right from the arches and built-in bookshelves to the quality attic space - a testament to a bygone era. In essence, this home is a blend of "cozy", "charming", and "secure". Substantial improvements have been made over the last decade. In 2016, the kitchen was extensively renovated with new cabinets, counters, paint, light fixtures, and hardware, resulting in a functional and visually pleasing space. The basement floors were upgraded in 2019 from vinyl to high-end, easy-to-clean limestone. Other improvements include a new HVAC system (2019), water heater (2018), and a tasteful bathroom renovation (2021). The home also received a furnace upgrade (2019), washer/dryer upgrade (2020), and light fixture updates (2018). Situated a few blocks from Mount Vernon trail/the Potomac River, King Street, and the Metro, the neighborhood offers great walkability and accessibility to wonderful dining options, shops, trails, DC and the airport. The Virginia Village community itself is burgeoning with great restaurants and shops while retaining its charming Old Town atmosphere.
