Rare opportunity on a quiet street in Clarendon. With its inviting curb appeal, deep front porch and beautifully landscaped yard, this property offers a rare opportunity to enjoy the comfort of a detached home in a friendly neighborhood in the heart of Clarendon--one of North Arlington's most desirable areas. The open layout combines living and dining rooms, and eat-in kitchen. The spacious family room off the kitchen opens onto a large deck and lush backyard, filled with unique tropical foliage that thrives in the DC climate and returns every year, making it perfect for gatherings and relaxation. Upstairs, the expanded primary suite with a vaulted ceiling includes a versatile attached space which can be used as an office, sitting room, or nursery. Off the primary bedroom is a peaceful balcony where you can savor your morning coffee or evening glass of wine, while taking in views of one of the prettiest yards in the neighborhood. Upstairs is the second bedroom and second full bath. The owner has meticulously cared for the home, with recent updates including replacing roofing and shingles in 2023 and newly installed Hardie Plank siding and gutters in 2021. The home's driveway provides enough off-street for two SUV's. Recent updates have been made to the bathrooms, upstairs laundry, staircase and landing. +++ Beyond the home's beauty and comfort, you'll love the unbeatable location--just a short stroll to popular Clarendon attractions like Pottery Barn, the Apple Store, the new Lifetime gym, Starbucks, the just opened Wagamama, Ambar, Seamore's, and more. If you are not into shopping, simply enjoy the large park on Barton St or simply take a stroll on the tree lined streets. And when you're ready to explore further, simply hop on the Clarendon or Courthouse metro for an easy commute to DC or the suburbs. If you drive to work, this location is ideal! One traffic light and a left turn and your next stop is DC. You are also one traffic light away from the Pentagon and Pentagon Row. But, if your workplace is in Tysons Corner or the outer suburbs you'll enjoy the time savings of the "reverse" commute. This home is one minute to Route 50, six minutes to I-66 and 5 minutes to the GW Parkway.
