Description

Live minutes from DC, the Pentagon, Shirlington, Arlington Village, and Crystal City in a detached Douglas Park home that also works as a potential income property. Expanded and redone in 2009, this 4 bedroom, 3 full bath home offers a flexible layout with a separate lower-level apartment, ideal for house hacking, multi-generational living, or long-term guests. Commuters will appreciate quick access to Columbia Pike, I-395, and nearby transit, while still enjoying a neighborhood setting.The main level features warm hardwood floors, a traditional living and dining arrangement, and a gas stove in the kitchen that home cooks will appreciate. The home is comfortable and livable now, and it also needs a little love, which gives you a chance to update finishes at your own pace rather than paying for someone else’s choices. Three full baths across the home support everyday convenience, whether you have a busy household or frequent visitors.On the lower level, a separate apartment with its own side entrance, kitchen, bedroom, and full bath creates real flexibility. Live upstairs and lease the apartment to offset your mortgage, create a private space for in-laws or an au pair, or use it as a home office and guest suite. Outside, a private garden and yard offer a quiet place to unwind, grow herbs and flowers, or let pets enjoy the outdoors, with a shed for extra storage. With its combination of location, income potential, hardwood floors, gas cooking, and a home that needs just a little love to shine, this Douglas Park property offers a smart way to live in Arlington while putting your home to work for you.List of Updates to Property All new appliances added to basement in 2011 W/D, oven, fridge; dishwasher added 2021New HVAC system installed in 2017All new light fixtures on main level 2017 including recessed lights in kitchen and living room, chandelier and all room lights New outdoor wood fencing in front and backyard 2017 Small full Bath and walk-in closet added to primary bedroom in 2019Carpet replaced with wood floor in 2 bedrooms main level in 2017 Basement hvac space expanded to add a closet 2020Outside driveway Asphalt update 2021Awning for Basement stairs 2021Basement breakfast bar added to split room into eat-in kitchen/living room 2021Wood Flooring and ceramic tiles in the 2 bedrooms, hall closets and hallway to main bath 2017-2021New water heater 2021New Washer dryer 2021New dishwasher on main level 2023Upstairs Hall closet interior updated 2023Small linen closet updated with tile floor 2023Cement path outside of backdoor of kitchen 2023New thermostat 2025
