About this home
OPEN HOUSE SAT. 5/16 1-3PM & SUN. 5/17 12:30-2:30pm. This distinguished Westover property delivers a rarely-seen package of attributes on a quiet, tree-lined street just a 5-minute walk from the heart of Westover Village with its numerous shops, restaurants, schools, library, and conveniences. It is a commuter's dream at only .7 miles to the East Falls Church Metro, easy access to I-66, bike paths nearby, and less than 10 miles to the airport. Whether commuting to DC, Tyson's Corner or traveling nationally or internationally for business, this is the home for you. Built in 1940, renovated and expanded in 2010, and carefully maintained and updated since that time, this beautiful home is move-in ready and offers a combination of space, charm, luxury, and location that is seldom available in Arlington. With six bedrooms, four and 1/2 baths, numerous spacious and versatile living areas, and a 0.33-acre level corner lot, the home comfortably meets the need for spaces to work, play, relax, and entertain. The historic core of the home boasts its original 1940 natural stone fireplace, random-width pegged hardwood floors, arched doorways, spacious dining room, and cozy wood-paneled library. Thoughtful 2010 additions designed by architect Richard Lanier enhance both luxury and livability. The additions include a stunning primary suite featuring custom millwork and a gas fireplace; a separate sitting area opening onto a porch for outdoor lounging; a luxurious bath with copper soaking tub, double shower with river stone accents and custom-built vanity; 2 large walk-in closets; and an adjacent second-floor laundry. Enjoy the expansive gourmet kitchen with Sub-Zero/Wolf/Miele appliances, warming drawer, wine fridge and an oversized island adjoining the spacious eating area and family room, with custom built-ins and another gas fireplace. The separate first-floor great room features the original stone wood-burning fireplace, a cathedral ceiling, a large bow window, and direct access to the backyard through two sets of French doors. A large mudroom offers custom built-ins and extensive storage. An inviting lower-level guest suite supports multi-generational living or extended visitor stays. The home’s sustainability profile is a major asset. A dual-zone geothermal heating and cooling system provides unparalleled indoor comfort at a fraction of the cost of even the most efficient traditional heat pump systems, saving hundreds of dollars per month during peak seasons. The home is further equipped with fully-paid solar panels, 2 tankless water heaters, a whole-house fan, spray foam insulation, and electric vehicle charging capability. The large corner lot has a fenced yard featuring a spacious outdoor eating area, a fire pit, a charming custom-built shed/playhouse with electricity that mimics the residence, and plentiful mature trees and plantings. Like the house itself, the neighborhood is a treasure. Walk five minutes to beloved local shops and restaurants including the Lost Dog Cafe, Westover Gourmet Market and Beer Garden, Lebanese Taverna, The Italian Store, Ayers Hardware, Trade Roots Gift Shop, Westover Library, the vibrant Westover Farmers Market, Thai Noy, and more. Cardinal ES, Arlington Traditional ES, and Swanson MS are all within easy walking distance. Popular Overlee Pool is less than a mile away and buyers gain a major benefit because they are eligible for the Overlee Real Estate Transfer process, which can give them priority status on the lengthy wait list. The pool is prized for its tennis, diving, and swim teams. This home offers a truly compelling combination of historic charm, luxury, modern sustainability, and acreage, all nestled into the heart of one of Arlington’s most walkable and family-friendly neighborhoods. This home is ideally located for those who work at Virginia Hospital Center and for those who work or play at the Medstar Ice Arena in Ballston where you will find the Washington Capitals practicing....
