LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION!! This home is a rarely available gem in the sought-after Hallowing Point River Estates! This FULL BRICK, MAIN LEVEL LIVING home with a full basement is the perfect blend of modern updates and classic charm. Boasting 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths, this home has OVER $125,000 in updates and renovations to meet the needs of today's discerning homeowner while still retaining its original character. The thoughtful updates include features that would allow anyone to age in place, such as relocating the NEW washer and dryer to the main level, widening some of the doorways, expanding the Primary Bathroom, and improving access into the home, to name a few. The floor plan, hardwood floors, and cozy wood-burning fireplace retain the warmth and character of this 1960's home, while the basement has an open, industrial style perfect as a fun rec room - complete with a pool table! The baseboard heating, 3-sided wood-burning fireplace, and espresso-colored wood columns add contrast and warmth to the concrete walls and flooring. The basement also has a utility room and an additional finished room that could be an office, workout room, or a 4th bedroom (NTC). There is an oversized 2 car garage and a service door for easy access to the inviting back yard. Not so glamorous of an update, but important, is the installation of a NEW septic system (2022) and a NEW hot water heater, expansion tank AND pressure reducing valve (2022), NEW electrical wiring in the lower level (2023) which offers peace of mind for years to come. Not only does this property offer incredible indoor living space, but it also sits on a NEAR ACRE LOT, offering the perfect oasis from the hustle and bustle of everyday life in Northern Virginia. The IN-GROUND POOL is the perfect spot for lounging on hot summer days, while the proximity and views of the Potomac River provide a serene backdrop for relaxation. Enjoy the community amenities, which include a boat ramp and pier, tennis courts, basketball court, private community beach, playground, and picnic area. If you love spending time in nature, you'll appreciate the nearby bike path and parks. Explore Pohick Bay Regional Park, Mason Neck State Park, and Meadowood Recreation Area, all of which are just a short drive away. These parks offer a range of outdoor activities, such as hiking, fishing, boating, and birdwatching. This property is not only a fantastic place to call home, but it's also conveniently located just a short commute to DC, Old Town Alexandria, Fort Belvoir, the Pentagon, and Quantico, and close to the Lorton VRE. This home truly has it all – from its tasteful updates and convenient location to its incredible outdoor space and community amenities. Don't miss out on this amazing opportunity!
