Property Description
***OFFER DEADLINE FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 11TH 6PM***The curb appeal of this lovely 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath Cape Cod immediately welcomes you, with a beautifully manicured front lawn, brick driveway and walkway leading to a charming covered front porch. Inside, freshly buffed hardwood floors run throughout the main and upper levels. The inviting living room features a wood-burning fireplace (sold as-is), while the generously sized dining room provides plenty of space for gatherings. A main-level bedroom and full bathroom add convenience and flexibility. The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated with new GE stainless steel appliances (2026), under-cabinet lighting, a deep sink and two windows that bring in plenty of natural light. Upstairs, you'll find two additional bedrooms, including a spacious primary bedroom with an attached full bathroom. The lower level offers a comfortable recreation room with new carpet (2026), a large storage and utility area, and a convenient half bathroom. Step outside and enjoy your own private oasis. The beautifully landscaped backyard offers wonderful privacy and is best enjoyed from the large deck, thoughtfully built around a gorgeous mature tree. The location is hard to beat, especially for those who appreciate history, nature and an easy commute. Directly across from historic Carlin Hall Community Center and just around the corner from the public library and community garden, the home is also steps from the Ball-Sellers House, Arlington's oldest surviving home. A few blocks away, Glencarlyn Park offers a dog park, playground and access to the Four Mile Run Trail. With easy access to Arlington Boulevard, the Pentagon and Washington, DC are just minutes away.
