Come to the exclusive Gene May designed community of Villamay located just south of Old Town Alexandria along the iconic George Washington Memorial Parkway. Meticulously cared for, this spacious home sits on an ideal corner lot in the heart of Villamay! Experience the open and elegant, naturally-lit living room, accented by a large picture window which looks out onto an inviting and private patio. Pass by the living room's gas fireplace on the way to a large open dining room and sliding doors to the garden and landscaped rear yard. Beautiful granite counters, a new kitchen floor and abundant, solid wood cabinets surround a stainless kitchen outfitted with double wall ovens, built-in microwave, and a Bosch dishwasher. The bedroom level offers three spacious bedrooms and two full baths. The primary bedroom has a fantastic en suite accented with travertine floor tile, and expanded spa-like bath with heated towel bars and an over-sized shower. Two of the bedrooms have lovely corner wrap-around windows -- a signature of Gene May, the esteemed original builder of Villamay! The lower level offers an enormous media/rec room with exceptional natural light and another gas fireplace, and a spacious guest suite with an upgraded, mint-condition vintage bathroom. Custom-built bookshelves surround two full walls of the media/rec room giving it warmth and beauty. The "To-Die-For" laundry room, awash in windows, full size stacked front-load washer/dryer, retractable drying rack, built-in ironing board, a marble counter for folding clothes and tons of storage, re-defines the thought of doing laundry. With a super wide 2-car garage and 2 floored attics, storage abounds throughout the house. 7401 Gatewood Court is perfectly located on a premium lot at the corner of the "Gatewoods" with a cul de sac at the end of the block. It's the place to call home.
