Welcome home to this beautifully updated Colonial nestled in the highly sought after Stratford Landing community, where timeless charm meets modern living in one of Alexandria's most beloved neighborhoods. From the moment you step inside, you'll appreciate the warmth and character that make this house feel like home. Rich, gleaming hardwood floors flow throughout the main level, leading you from one inviting space to the next. Whether you're hosting Thanksgiving dinner or a casual Sunday brunch, the chef's kitchen is truly the heart of the home, offering generous prep space, abundant cabinetry, and room for everyone to gather. Just off the kitchen, your favorite room may become the incredible screened porch. Imagine sipping your morning coffee while listening to the birds, enjoying family dinners al fresco, or winding down with friends for an evening happy hour without a single mosquito in sight. It's the kind of space you'll find yourself using nearly year round. Upstairs, the spacious primary retreat and two additional bedrooms provide comfortable living for the whole family. Two beautifully updated Craftsman inspired bathrooms add style and function, while generous closet space offers plenty of room for everything from shoes to seasonal wardrobes. The fully finished lower level is ready for whatever your family needs next. Cozy movie nights, game days cheering on the Commanders, sleepovers with neighborhood friends, a home gym, playroom, or office...this flexible space can easily adapt to your lifestyle. Step outside and you'll discover one of the home's biggest highlights...the expansive, fully fenced backyard. Whether you're roasting marshmallows around the firepit, kicking the soccer ball with the kids, letting the dogs run free, planting a garden, or hosting summer barbecues, this backyard was made for making memories. Location truly sets this home apart. Stratford Landing offers a wonderful sense of community with tree lined streets, neighborhood events, and quick access to some of Northern Virginia's best outdoor recreation. Spend weekends biking along the scenic Mount Vernon Trail, kayaking on the Potomac River, or visiting George Washington's Mount Vernon Estate. Sherwood Regional Library, INOVA Mount Vernon Hospital, Costco, grocery stores, restaurants, coffee shops, and everyday conveniences are all just minutes away. Commuters will love the easy access to Fort Belvoir, the Pentagon, Joint Base Anacostia Bolling, and Coast Guard Headquarters. Huntington Metro, Franconia Springfield Metro, and the Fairfax Connector make getting around simple, while the George Washington Parkway, Route 1, I-95, I-495, and Fairfax County Parkway provide convenient access to Old Town Alexandria, National Landing, Amazon HQ2, Reagan National Airport, Washington, DC, and National Harbor. This is more than just a beautiful home. It's a place where holidays are celebrated, kids ride bikes with neighbors, friends gather on the porch, and memories are made for years to come. Welcome home.
