Rare one-level living in Falls Church City on a ¼-acre lot with 3 bedrooms, a versatile bonus room, private office, walk-out lower level, fenced backyard, and exceptional storage. Carefully updated while preserving its original character, this light-filled home boasts oversized skylights, walls of windows, and soaring 12½-foot ceilings, offering a rare balance of privacy, greenery, and natural light. Character and charm evident at every turn, from the original stone fireplace and beautifully preserved vintage bathroom tile to the bookcase concealing hidden stairs to the attic. Outside, mature landscaping and a fenced backyard create a private setting for entertaining, play, pets, and everyday enjoyment. Expansive hardscape patios provide multiple gathering spaces for dining and relaxing outdoors. Designed for convenient one-level living, the main level includes the primary suite, a secondary bedroom, a versatile bonus room, and the home's primary living spaces. Upon entering, the sun-drenched living room is a showstopper. The kitchen overlooks the dining room, where a double set of French doors connects to the outdoor living spaces, while the heart of the home is a sun-filled family room lined with windows overlooking the lush backyard. The spacious primary suite offers a sitting area, walk-in closet, and ensuite bath. The home also features a main level versatile room with egress window (shown as a nursery but easily adapted as a playroom, second office, or fitness space), as well as a secondary bedroom and full bath. The walk-out lower level offers outstanding flexibility with a sun-filled playroom and lounge area, plus a bedroom and third full bath, creating an ideal guest suite. Meanwhile, the lower-level office (furniture conveys) remains secluded from everyday household activities, creating an ideal work-from-home setup. Storage is exceptional, with abundant closets, nearly 400 square feet of floored attic space that may be used for storage or explored for future finished living space, and an additional 350 square feet of unfinished lower-level storage. Tucked into one of Falls Church City's most beloved neighborhoods, this home is just minutes from East and West Falls Church Metro stations, the weekly Falls Church Farmers Market, Founders Row, Birch & Broad, Whole Foods, Paragon Theaters, the Community Center, Library, and the W&OD Trail. Enjoy a walkable lifestyle with easy access to Metro, dining, shopping, entertainment, and highly regarded Falls Church City schools.
