Property Description

**OPEN HOUSE Saturday February 28 from 1-3pm and Sunday March 1 from 12-2pm. **This exceptional Westover property delivers a rare combination of character and modern sustainability on a quiet, tree-lined street just a 5-minute walk from the heart of Westover Village. Offering 6 bedrooms, 4 full bathrooms and one-half bath, numerous spacious living areas,and a .33-acre level corner lot, this home provides a level of space and charm that is seldom available in Arlington and supports both day-to-day comfort and long-term livability. The location is unbeatable. Residents value the neighborhood's enduring small-town feel and convenient infrastructure. Just 2 blocks from the Lost Dog Cafe, Westover Beer Garden, Lebanese Taverna, The Italian Store, Ayers Hardware, the library, the post office and more, including the Westover Farmers Market. Cardinal ES and Swanson MS are within walking distance. Outdoor enthusiasts and commuters benefit from direct access to regional assets. The W&OD and the Nellie Custis Trails are 3 blocks away. The East Falls Church Metro is less than a mile from the home, and transportation options are robust with a bus stop one block way offering direct service to the Metro. Capital Bikeshare is 2 blocks away. Enjoy easy access to I-66, D.C. and Tysons Corner. The home honors its original architectural integrity and timeless character with a natural stone wood-burning fireplace, random-width pegged hardwood floors, arched doorways, a spacious dining room, and a wood-paneled library. Thoughtful 2010 additions designed by architect Richard Lanier significantly enhance both luxury and functionality with top-quality construction, high-end finishes, and attention to detail. The improvements include a stunning primary suite featuring 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; and 2 large walk-in closets. On the main floor, an expansive gourmet kitchen with Sub-Zero/Wolf/Miele appliances and an oversized island adjoins a spacious eating area and family room, with custom built-ins and another gas fireplace. A 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 French doors. A large mudroom offers custom built-ins and extensive storage. A spacious and comfortable lower-level guest suite supports multi-generational living or extended visitor stays. The home's sustainability profile is a major advantage and differentiator. The residence features a dual-zone geothermal heating and cooling system that provides unparalleled indoor comfort at a fraction of the cost of even the most efficient traditional heat pump systems. The home is further equipped with fully-paid solar panels, 2 tankless water heaters, a whole-house fan for quick, natural cooling during the shoulder seasons, spray foam insulation, and electric vehicle charging capability with a Tesla charger installed and wiring in place for an additional charger. The lot was professionally landscaped in 2018 to create an outdoor oasis supporting entertainment, gardening, and recreation. The fenced yard features a spacious outdoor eating area, a fire pit, and an electrified shed custom designed to complement the residence. This property offers a truly unique compelling combination of historic charm, luxury, modern convenience, and sustainability, as well as access to one of Arlington's most sought-after neighborhoods. Buyers seeking a legacy home with enduring value will recognize the opportunity. The owners are members of Overlee Pool, which currently has a 10+ year waitlist. The purchaser of this home would have the opportunity to move to the top of that list. This is a huge advantage because membership waiting lists for pools in Arlington are many years long.
