Property Description
**Open House Sunday October 12th 2:30-4:00pm** Discover the perfect blend of mid-century charm and modern amenities in this sun-drenched home nestled on a private, increasingly scarce, nearly half-acre lot in the highly coveted Riverside Estates neighborhood of George Washington's Mount Vernon. This expansive 5-bedroom, 3-bathroom residence offers the ultimate indoor-outdoor living experience. Kick back and unwind on the expansive deck that overlooks your large fenced-in yard, the perimeter of which is surrounded by remarkably lush, mature landscaping, creating a regular outdoor oasis ideal for gatherings, play, or solo relaxation. The interior of the home has been thoughtfully updated and lovingly cared for, exuding an overwhelming sense of warmth and character. Upon entering, you'll be greeted by a bright and welcoming living room abundant with natural light, an intimate dining area, and newly refinished gleaming hardwood floors throughout. On the main level you'll also find four well apportioned bedrooms (with brand new carpeting) and two bathrooms, inclusive of the primary suite (with en-suite bathroom) as well as the radiant kitchen which sparkles of quartz countertops and stainless-steel appliances. The fully finished lower level, also showcasing fresh new carpeting, provides substantial additional living space, offering a sprawling Rec Room, laundry room and an additional bedroom and hall bathroom. Other notable upgrades include recent roof replacement (2019 with 50yr warranty) and newly resealed driveway (2025). Residents of Riverside Estates enjoy easy access to parks, trails, shopping, dining, and everything else Northern Virginia has to offer. This home is conveniently walking distance to neighborhood schools (most notably top ranked Riverside Elementary), the GW Parkway Trailhead, Mount Vernon Estate, GW Rec Center, public transportation and is just a short drive away from the quaint shops and restaurants of Old Town Alexandria! So, whether you're looking to join a social club (pool, yacht or country), the local rec center or just grab a bike and go for a 10-mile ride down The Parkway, this home offers something for everyone. Come join the exclusive Riverside Estates community where resort style living meets small-town charm - but act fast, opportunities like this are increasingly rare, schedule your showing today!
