The neighborhood surrounding this three-bedroom, 2.5-bath townhome in Ashburn is an amenity-rich community that features plenty of shopping, grocery stores and restaurants within half a mile, according to Coldwell Banker Realty associate broker Diane Northern.
This 2,400-square foot home “can appeal to a lot of buyers because of the [planned Metro station]” in Ashburn, she added. A two-car, rear load garage accessible via an alleyway at the rear of this $650,000 property accentuates the quaint, tree-lined ambiance of homes facing the street.
The home’s façade features bright red brick, which contrasts against white wood trim on a bay window and surrounding a red front door. A colonnade will protect guests from inclement weather at the entrance to the home before they step into an airy and open living room.
The interior of the home features hard surface flooring throughout. Oak-toned wood floors extend from the main entryway through to a family room with an exposed brick accent wall and a kitchen with broad windows for easy access to natural light. Plantation shutters throughout the home will allow owners to more easily regulate the brightness and ambiance of interior lighting.
Common areas on the ground floor feature white ceilings that contrast against light beige walls, and recessed light fixtures here accentuate the home’s sleek, updated look. One of the kitchen’s main draws is an island with a broad granite countertop that offers a platform for cooking, work or study opposite a pair of large windows.
Behind the island, matching granite countertops on top of rich, dark wood cabinetry provide abundant surface area for culinary prep work or entertaining. A pair of vertically-stacked dual ovens, as well as a dishwasher, microwave and spacious refrigerator are finished in bright stainless steel to accentuate the kitchen’s modern look.
Previous owners converted a dining room near the kitchen into an office space, and added pocket French doors with glass panes that slide into adjacent walls for added versatility. A single stairwell connects the open areas on the ground floor with bedrooms and bathrooms on the second story — a feature which makes the home an excellent buy for owners who dislike climbing too many stairs, Northern joked.
All three bedrooms are equipped with ceiling fans, and the bathroom in the owner’s suite features a large corner shower finished with ceramic tiles, opposite a spacious soaking tub in front of two windows that separates the bathroom’s two vanities.
Northern highlighted “relocation buyers, move-up buyers, or people trying to get away from so many stairs” as a good potential fit for this home. Northern added that there will be an open house for the property on Sunday, Dec. 27 from 1 to 3 p.m.
