Property Description
Offers due by 5pm. July 7th. Spectacular home in Tara, Arlington's premier close-in neighborhood, with one-of-a-kind curb appeal. You’ll enjoy the many fine appointments inside, the lovely gardens outside, and the unique view of the woods behind the home. As is customary throughout Tara, the home has a deep set back from the street, and features a very private and quiet back yard. But when you venture out into the neighborhood, you’ll find friendly neighbors whose company you can enjoy at annual Independence Day and holiday parties. Many are long-term residents.
The home was built in 1948, and has been meticulously maintained throughout. The home features two large bedrooms upstairs, with a third bedroom on the first floor. The kitchen has been updated, with beautiful custom-made cabinets and a unique single-piece Corian counter-top. Both bathrooms have been updated as well. You’ll find crown moulding, wainscoting and chair rails in many rooms, and beautifully maintained hardwood floors throughout. There is a large paneled and carpeted rec room in the basement, with lots of entertainment possibilities. The home features a large utility/workroom, with walk-out steps to the back yard. Outside you can admire the fine details, with the copper gutters even extending to the garage. And enjoy your summer evenings in the comfortable screened-in porch, free from Virginia’s state insect.
Per the assessor, the home size is 1,635 square feet above ground, and 1,017 square feet finished/unfinished below ground. A floor plan is included among the photos. The home is located very close to excellent schools – Cardinal, Swanson and Yorktown. The home is convenient to all amenities, and a short distance to the throw-back Westover shopping center.
