About this home
Modern Comfort & Convenience in Newington Commons - Welcome to this beautifully updated townhouse, where meticulous care meets modern design. Located in the highly sought-after Newington Commons community, the current owner has thoughtfully renovated nearly every inch of this home over the last few years, creating a move-in-ready sanctuary that blends high-end finishes with practical upgrades.
Modern Living & Gourmet Dining - The heart of the home features a sleek, fully renovated kitchen designed for the modern chef. You'll love the precision of induction cooking, complemented by premium stainless steel appliances. The adjacent dining room is perfect for entertaining, featuring custom built-in cabinetry that adds both style and significant storage. Relax in the inviting living area, which has been upgraded with a contemporary electric fireplace and a dedicated TV zone, making it the ultimate spot for movie nights or quiet evenings. New patio sliding doors seamlessly transition to the large deck, perfect for outdoor dining.
Stylish Upgrades Throughout - Include sophisticated luxury vinyl plank (LVP) floors which flow through the main and lower levels, as well as most of the upper level. Brand-new carpet has just been installed for a fresh, cozy feel in the remaining areas on the upper level. The hall and primary baths have been updated with modern fixtures and finishes. The primary bedroom includes a creative walk-in closet featuring excellent storage options.
Additional Storage: Rare for the area, the attic has been expanded with flooring and pull-down stairs, providing massive amounts of extra storage. Plus a lower level storage and laundry/utility room that has been designed with extensive shelving units to optimize storage.
Tech & Infrastructure - This home isn't just pretty—it’s smart. The electrical system has been completely modernized with a new electrical panel and a dedicated EV charger, ensuring you are ready for the future of transportation.
Prime Location with Peaceful Views: Unlike many townhomes, this property looks back over a large common area with a playground, adjacent to parkland, offering a rare sense of openness and a peaceful view. Within the community there is direct access to Fairfax County’s extensive multi-use trail network, connecting to Occoquan Regional Park, the 41.5-mile Cross County Trail, as well as the Mercer and Burke Lake trails, and South Run Recreation Center.
Commuter’s Dream: Located with easy access to major transit routes, including the VRE, Fairfax County Connector bus service, Metro, Fairfax County Parkway, and I-95, making your morning commute a breeze....
