Description
This home, built by the owner in 1954, has been impeccably maintained over the 70 year span. The owner lived in the home for all 70 of those years and was meticulous not only in building a solid house, but keeping it in pristine condition. The curb appeal of the Tennessee Lime Stone and Hard Redwood exterior is eye catching. The floor to ceiling windows provide excellent light as well as a fantastic view of the landscape. Although the interior is outdated according to today's standards, the cleanliness and condition of the home, including the hard word floors, bathrooms, kitchen, etc. show the love and care that the owner shared with this amazing property. The basement is mostly finished and has 2 rooms that were used as bedrooms. There is also a rough in bathroom in the basement, that will need to be renovated. All utilities and appliances are in good working condition, and the home is move in ready. The bones of this house are incredibly strong and show little, if any wear. There are 2 driveways and a detached 2 car garage that is heated, nice decking and a lighted gazebo. All surrounded by a peaceful and relaxing garden atmosphere with a waterfall. The true value of this property is in the land, located minutes off of 395 and 236 and 1 mile away from the new hospital/shopping center being built at the old Landmark site. The lot is 1.38 acres and is coded as R2. Meaning that the wooded area on the corner of Evangeline and Lincoln Avenue is a buildable lot. Permits required, but rating already in place. Walk to shopping/restaurants/grocery store. 10 minutes to the Pentagon. 15 minutes to DC. You really need to see this home to appreciate it! Don't miss out on not only a great home, but an excellent investment in your future!!
