Property Description
Welcome to 5899 2nd Street South, a timeless brick colonial nestled in one of Arlington's most established neighborhoods. Combining classic architecture with bright, inviting interiors, this home offers the perfect balance of character, space, and convenience just minutes from Washington, DC.
The home's beautiful brick façade and symmetrical colonial design create striking curb appeal, while inside you'll find gleaming hardwood floors, abundant natural light, and spacious living areas designed for both comfort and entertaining.
The main level features a sun-filled living room with a charming brick fireplace, creating a warm focal point for gatherings and everyday living. Adjacent spaces flow effortlessly into the formal dining room, ideal for hosting dinners and celebrations. The bright kitchen offers ample cabinetry, modern lighting, and a functional layout that connects seamlessly to the living spaces. A spacious family room, part of a thoughtfully designed three-level extension, adds valuable additional living space on the main level, perfect for relaxing, entertaining, or everyday family life.
Upstairs, four generously sized bedrooms provide peaceful retreats, each filled with natural light and classic hardwood flooring. The upper-level primary suite, part of the three-level extension, offers a spacious master bedroom that enhances the home's layout with additional comfort and privacy. The bathrooms blend charm with functionality, while the home's layout offers flexibility for families, guests, or a dedicated home office.
The lower level includes additional storage space within the extension, along with abundant room for future potential such as a recreation room, home gym, or additional living area.
Outside, the large backyard offers plenty of room for outdoor entertaining, gardening, or relaxing under mature trees. A private driveway adds convenience rarely found in this desirable Arlington location.
This classic colonial combines timeless style, expanded living space from the three-level addition, and an unbeatable Arlington location close to parks, schools, shopping, dining, and major commuter routes.
