Tucked away on a private street between Belle View and Belle Haven, this spectacular 3-level, 5-bedroom, 3.5-bath brick colonial, completely remodeled in 2012, offers a perfect blend of classic elegance and relaxed, everyday comfort. Gracious in scale and updated throughout the last decade, the home is designed for both lively entertaining and peaceful retreat.

At the heart of the home, the granite eat-in kitchen features 42-inch cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, gas cooking, and a center island overlooking the backyard oasis. The adjacent family room with gas fireplace is ideal for movie nights or casual gatherings. Formal dining and living rooms provide welcoming spaces for holidays and celebrations. Upstairs, the primary suite includes a luxury bath and generous closets, while two additional bedrooms share a Jack & Jill bath. The top level serves as a private retreat with a large living area, bedroom, full bath, and ample storage—perfect for guests, teens, or in-laws. A spacious laundry room is conveniently located on the bedroom level.

Outside, your personal paradise awaits: a saltwater pool, hot tub, hammock, deck, and cabana are all nestled within a private, fenced backyard—offering the ultimate staycation lifestyle. The converted two-car garage currently functions as bonus living space but can easily be restored to its original use.

Location is where this home truly shines. Just blocks from the Belle Haven Marina, scenic walking trails, and the Mount Vernon bike path, nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts will find endless inspiration. Walk to The Haven, a favorite local pub with outdoor patio dining, or indulge in homemade ice cream and frozen yogurt just two blocks away. Enjoy tee time at Belle Haven Country Club, explore the $80 million state-of-the-art Mount Vernon Rec Center, or kayak along the Potomac.

This is a commuter’s dream—only 8 minutes to National Airport and with easy access to Old Town Alexandria, National Harbor, and downtown DC. The nearby shopping center offers grocery, restaurants, and daily essentials, while weekend escapes to wineries in Clifton, Shenandoah hikes, or even a quick train ride to NYC are all within reach.

Whether you're drawn to the vibrant culture of Old Town, the peaceful rhythm of the marina, or the unmatched access to golf, boating, trails, and entertainment, this home offers a rare combination of seclusion, comfort, and connected lifestyle.
