Description

Come discover Arlington's Brockwood community, a coveted secret, hidden in plain sight adjacent to Bon Air Park, rose gardens, tennis, trails, ballfields, play and picnic areas. Nearby, experience different vibes with bustling Ballston Quarter/ Metro’s urban amenities and the small-town friendliness of Westover Village. Once inside, you will be captivated by this charming, expanded Cape Cod home that seamlessly blends tradition with modern comfort. Built in 1952, and thoughtfully updated over the years, this residence radiates warmth and hospitality. A quick foyer entry with coat closet beckons you and your guests to the cheerful living room. Here, you can exhale and relax around the real wood-burning fireplace. It even has a mantel to display your personal treasures. Sightlines lead to the homey breakfast nook, where lingering over your morning brew or lunchtime snack is a daily pleasure. Totally renovated in 2007, with convenience in mind (such as a filtered water dispenser at the sink, specialty cabinets, etc.), this kitchen is a delight. Its major appliances are almost new (April 2025). The adjacent family room addition, complete with a crackling, wood-burning fireplace, has ample room for dining, as well as large gatherings or cozy retreats. Kick up your feet, bask in the abundant natural light flowing through vinyl, insulated windows, enjoy the garden views, curl up with a good book, stream your favorite program or podcast. On a private wing, the main level includes two bedrooms, along with a full bathroom enhanced by a large walk-in shower (2015). Upstairs are two additional bedrooms complete with sunset views, Harry Potter nooks and crannies, and a full bathroom. Big bonus - a large 8’ x 8’7” walk-in closet with organizers is next to the primary bedroom. Downstairs offers a rec room, ideal for game night, hobbies, play or a hideaway. You’ll be impressed with all the storage space, including extra pantry, that our laundry/utility room encompasses. It even has a walkout stairway exit to the patio and serene backyard. Outside, the property is adorned with extensive hardscaping, stone retaining walls, and lush landscaping, a veritable retreat embraced by trees. The attached garage with extra storage and driveway present convenient parking options, while the neighborhood's no-thru street ensures a quiet atmosphere. Great schools: Ashlawn, Swanson and Yorktown. Quick commute to DC, National Landing, Alexandria, Pentagon, Tysons and airports. Don’t hesitate to make this special place your forever home!
