The photos tell the story of this tastefully appointed, newly upgraded, move-in ready 3-level townhouse with 3 bedrooms, 2 full, and 2 half bathrooms in the Overlook Community in Alexandria, Virginia.
Overlook is located just inside the Beltway, with immediate access to 395/495/95, a direct bus to the Pentagon (less than a 5-minute walk from front door). When entering the community, you enjoy a drive up a winding, tree-lined avenue. Overlook surrounds Fairfax County's Bren Mar Park, with its mature trees and walking trails. These green space features are rarely found in a community located inside the Beltway.
The upgrades and appointments to this house start at the front curb, then to the front door details, and continue inside from the new Travertine tile floor in the foyer. A focus on the details, both big and small, is apparent throughout this house, from the visual impact of the new Benjamin Moore paint in neutral colors to create a flow from room to room, level to level in the house, to the new brushed nickel hardware on every door in the house, including hinges, with levers replacing knobs for a more elegant look and feel.
The landscaping at the curb has been professionally designed and newly installed. The front door is newly painted with a new brass lockset, knocker, and kick plate. Matching new brass carriage post and porch lights illuminate the front entrance.
The foyer has a newly installed Travertine 16x16 tile floor, with wainscot trim.
The house opens to a living room and a dining room, where a new five light brushed nickel candelabra is the centerpiece of the room. Both rooms have crown molding and hardwood floors, with wainscoting in the dining room. The front windows in the living room have Plantation shutters to control the light level in this part of the house.
The kitchen has a cook's layout that is ready for entertaining, with an island sink, ample prep room, stainless steel appliances, maple cabinets, new granite counters, and a new polished Marble tile backsplash.
Adjacent to the kitchen is an area sized for informal dining, with a brushed nickel ceiling fan. Another room adjacent to the kitchen offers space for relaxation or entertaining, with a new brushed nickel drum chandelier providing a focal point for this area. The five windows in this room each have Plantation shutters that let you adjust the light level to your liking.
The kitchen and adjacent areas continue the hardwood floors from the living and dining rooms.
The kitchen has immediate access to the oversized deck (320 square feet), which is constructed with composite material for lower maintenance costs. The deck is large enough for three seating areas, along with room for a grill. The rear of the house is screened by mature trees, which extend 40+ feet, so you have a green view from the deck and through the rear windows.
The Master Bedroom suite is large enough to make a King-size bed look small, with a tray ceiling and brushed nickel ceiling fan. The walk-in closet has customized storage shelving.
The Master Bathroom has been newly upgraded with a granite vanity top with two under mount sinks, Moen Brantford chrome fixtures for the sinks, bathtub, and shower, and matching accessories and framed mirrors.
The other bathrooms have newly upgraded sink fixtures with matching accessories, framed mirrors, and light fixtures.
Two additional bedrooms are on the Upper Level, with a full bathroom to serve these bedrooms.
The Lower Level has a gas fireplace, with room to watch a large screen TV and to set up a separate library or office.
The garage is a two-car, single door model, with custom shelving and wall storage.
