Property Description
On offer deadline has been set. Please contact listing agent for more details or check private agent remarks. They truly don't build them like this anymore! Set in the heart of quiet yet convenient Cherrydale, 1816 N. Kenmore is an expanded and impeccably designed 1922 Craftsman bungalow with 2-story addition. This one-of-its-kind home stands out for its layout, and rarely available flat .23-acre lot walkable to so many Arlington conveniences. What might seem unassuming from the outside, welcomes you into an expansive, move-in ready home flooded with character, functionality, and room to grow! The home has been featured in both Washingtonian and Arlington Magazines and offers 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths, and over 3,000 square feet of thoughtful living space. Step inside from your welcoming porch to Refinished oak hardwood floors running throughout, a wood-burning fireplace, and details that cannot be replicated today like crown molding, historic porticos, and functional built-ins. The gourmet kitchen hosts custom cherry cabinetry, updated stainless steel appliances, and Soapstone countertops. Schumacher fabric window treatments add warmth and personality and all convey, while other windows are enhanced with built-in plantation shutters. The great room is filled with natural light and creates an easy gathering space and flows seamlessly to the backyard to enjoy Spring and summer nights in your huge, private, and flat backyard. You'll find 9.5 and 10 ft. ceilings throughout the main level. Upstairs, you'll find a primary suite with walk-in closet and its own private bath, and two more bedrooms with their own closets, a large hall cedar closet and charmingly painted bathroom. The main level full bath next to your 4th bedroom has been remodeled, and the lower level includes flexible spaces that could be used for a play room, office, guest room, or workout room, and includes a rough-in for a future full bath. There is plenty of storage in two separate storage and utility rooms. Outside, the flat 0.23-acre lot is a rare find in Arlington. The fully fenced yard offers room to relax, entertain, and play with a patio, fire pit, hammock, mature trees for privacy, and a storage shed for extra space. It's the kind of yard that's hard to come by this close to everything. This end of North Kenmore is a no-through street, which keeps traffic on an only-necessary basis, and it ends with a staircase connecting directly to the Custis Trail that leads to Orange line conveniences. From the home, you can also walk to Safeway, the Lyon Village Shopping Center, The Italian Store, Cherrydale Hardware and Burger Billy's, along with other local neighborhood favorites in Cherrydale. This home is walking distance to numerous parks, including local favorites such as Oak Grove and Cherry Valley, with easy access to Science Focus Elementary school via a walking path. The home has also been impeccably maintained with important updates, including roof replacement (2020), heat pump (2020), solar panels (2022--think being unaffected by rising electricity costs), washing machine (2021), dryer (2020), and sump pump replaced in 2018. Utility costs are much lower than average due to convenient and efficient solar power. Ask listing agent for more information! Zoned for Science Focus Elementary, Hamm Middle, and Washington-Liberty High School, the location and lot size make this a standout opportunity in one of Arlington's most loved neighborhoods. Own a piece of Arlington history, move-in, and design and do nothing but enjoy!
