This Yates Gardens classic has been beautifully expanded in keeping with the way people live today. What was once a galley kitchen now boasts cherry cabinets, granite counters, stunning built-ins, a wine and additional beverage fridge, stainless appliances and a large island open to a spacious, sun drenched family room that extends back from and to the side of the homes original footprint. A half-bath is tucked discreetly into a corner. At the rear, sliders lead to a charming patio large enough for overflow during spring gatherings, and just the right amount of planting beds to get a nice dose of gardening without it being too much. The windows at the side, with a sunny, southern exposure, bring in the abundant light you covet! At the front of the main floor is a traditional complement to the modern back of the house: sizeable open dining and living space, with classic touches such as crown molding, chair rail, dental molding on the mantle, and plantation shutters. Looking for warmth in the winter? Youll be torn between a cozy wood fire in the living room, and the ease of gas flames with a flick of the switch in the family room. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a retro-styled bath. The roof deck entices you from the rear bedroom, and is also accessible to the patio by external spiral staircase. The primary bedroom features an expanded wall of closets with Elfa organizers for efficient storage. And the hardwoods from the main level continue throughout the bedroom level. Topping it off or more accurately, underpinning those fabulous spaces - youll find the lower level with a rec room with built-in wine rack and luxury vinyl plank flooring, storage room or workshop, and laundry rooms. Soothe your aching bones or let the chills of a winter walk seemingly melt in decadent steam shower mode of the glass-enclosed shower featured in the stylish second full bath. Situated on a dead-end block at the south end of Old Town, there is no through traffic on the street, and a private parking space makes life easy. As to convenience: walkable to King street shops and restaurants, Balduccis or Safeway, Jones Point and Windmill Hill park (dog park, anyone?), the Mount Vernon Trail, and King St Metro (1.5 miles); and a quick drive to I95, GW Parkway to National airport, Rt 1 to Amazon HQ2 and Crystal City.
