Entering Mount Vernon, you are captivated by land that was once owned by George Washington in highly coveted Southwood. As you approach, you immediately notice the stately appeal of this brick-front colonial perched beautifully on high. Enter to a spacious foyer with beautifully refinished hardwood floors throughout the whole home and fresh paint throughout. The rear of the home is the heart with a gorgeous kitchen, appointed with stainless appliances, including New programmable double-ovens, lovely countertops, and gas cooktop. The kitchen flows to the eat-in breakfast area as well as a cozy family room with surround sound. The family room is flanked by a brick fireplace set up, timely, for natural wood fires. The family room leads perfectly to the rear patio and fully fenced yard. The main level has a light-filled living room adjacent to formal dining room. The dining room can comfortably accommodate many guests and has an expanded bay window. Enjoy a main level office adjacent to powder room as well. The upstairs features four bedrooms and three full baths which is unique for Southwood--most colonial models only have two full baths upstairs. The primary suite is massive, with a large walk-in closet(formerly the 5th bedroom and could be converted), and upgraded en-suite bath. There is bonus space above the garage in the primary suite that could be finished if desired. Three additional bedrooms on the upper level are supported by two additional full baths. All of the hardwoods on the upper level have a beautiful natural finish. The bedrooms are generously proportioned and can accommodate all of your needs. The lower level has brand new luxury vinyl flooring and is a perfect rec room, theatre room or home gym. Additional features include a newly redone front brick walk way, new windows installed in 2014, two car garage 1/3 acre lot. Imagine becoming a member of the "friends and family" at Mt Vernon and the Free annual picnic for residents who live on the original five Washington farms. This is your new community, welcome home! Enjoy this wonderful location with close proximity to Ft. Belvoir, major commuter routes, GW bike Trail, multiple local parks, and the Potomac River. Be sure to watch the video and virtual tour!
