Property Description

****HISTORIC CHARM, LUXURY, WALKABILITY AND COST-SAVING SUSTAINABILITY ON A .33 ACRE LOT!*** This exceptional 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, and less than a mile from the metro. Built in 1940, completely 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, particularly at this price point. 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 an active family's 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. On the main floor, an expansive gourmet kitchen with Sub-Zero/Wolf/Miele appliances, warming drawer, wine fridge and an oversized island adjoins a 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, 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 unparalleled sustainability profile is a major and absolutely unique 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. The large corner lot was professionally landscaped in 2018 to create a lovely and functional extension of the indoor living areas. The fenced yard features a spacious outdoor eating area, a fire pit, a charming custom-built shed/playhouse 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, and more. Cardinal ES, Arlington Traditional ES, and Swanson MS are all within easy walking distance. Arlington bike trail access is 3 blocks away. The East Falls Church Metro is less than a mile from the home. With quick access to I-66, downtown D.C. and Tysons Corner/Rte. 267 are easily accessible. Sought-after Overlee Pool is less than a mile away. Because the owners of this home are members, buyers would have the opportunity to move to the top of the 10+ year waitlist — a huge benefit. 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. Buyers who value these qualities should not miss this opportunity!
