There are houses that make sense on paper - good schools, nice layout, convenient commute. And then there are homes that make sense the moment you step inside because everything about them simply works. This is one of those. Quiet where you want quiet, bright where you want light, built with rooms that connect without feeling crowded, and tucked up against trees so you get peace without giving up convenience.

You'll notice the difference before you reach the front door. As an end unit, this townhouse gives you extra distance from the neighbors and more windows for natural light. A private, fenced entryway welcomes you in, and two generous parking spaces sit right at the front so coming and going is easy. Walk through the door, and the house opens up - over 2,200 finished square feet on three levels, a layout that genuinely fits the way people live today.

There's a bathroom on every floor - practical, thoughtful, and one less thing to think about when guests arrive. The main level flows from a welcoming living area to an expanded kitchen and a defined dining room; both decks - front and back - give you a place to step outside and breathe. The rear deck was redone in 2022, and both decks have been repainted so you can use them the moment you move in.

Head downstairs and the fully finished basement becomes more than storage - it's a second living area with a wet bar, extra refrigerator, and a working fireplace. It's comfortable, it's cozy, and it's set up for entertaining, long visits, or quiet movie nights. The fireplace gives you atmosphere year-round; the bar gives you options.

Practical updates are more than cosmetic here. The home has a brand-new HVAC system with a UV air purification system, so the air feels clean and circulation is reliable no matter the season. Fresh paint inside, minor repairs completed, and a new garbage disposal add up to a truly move-in-ready condition. Small things that make day-to-day life smoother have already been handled.

Location is where this home quietly shines. Backing directly onto the protected woodlands of Huntley Meadows Park, you get a backyard view that stays forever green - low noise, lots of birdsong, and a real sense of separation from the city. Yet you're only minutes from Old Town Alexandria, Kingstowne shopping and dining, and quick to major commuter routes like I-495, I-95, and Route 1. The neighborhood itself is calm and walkable, with about 1.5 miles of sidewalks and a dead-end layout that keeps through-traffic to a minimum.

This place blends modern comforts with a deliberate connection to nature: dual decks, private entry, finished basement with a wet bar, practical systems that are new, and a setting that's rare this close to the city. It's the kind of home where the plan you already have for your life - work, entertaining, quiet mornings on the deck - fits without force or rework.

Come see it. Walk the decks. Sit in the basement by the fire. Take a breath and listen to the woods. When a home lines up this well between convenience and calm, you feel it right away.
