Welcome to this beautifully renovated gem in South Arlington’s Columbia Heights neighborhood! This charming semi-detached home blends timeless curb appeal with modern updates throughout—and best of all, there are no HOA or condo fees. Thoughtfully expanded and completely renovated from top to bottom in 2014, the home has seen numerous additional improvements and updates by the current owner since then. The main level features a living/dining area with LVP flooring, a powder room and a flexible third bedroom, office/den or formal dining room, complete with wall-to-wall built-ins and direct access to the backyard—perfect for guests, remote work, or simply enjoying the view. The light-filled kitchen is a showstopper: upgraded recessed panel cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, counter depth refrigerator, a glass mosaic backsplash, LED and pendant lighting, and even USB outlets for today’s connected lifestyle. A counter overhang creates the perfect spot for casual dining. Upstairs, you’ll find two spacious bedrooms with overhead ceiling fans, a full bath, and access to attic storage. Freshly painted in stylish, neutral tones, this home is truly move-in ready. Outside, the landscaping includes colorful rose bushes, fragrant gardenias, and blueberry plants. The fully fenced rear yard is a private oasis with two patio spaces: a pergola-covered brick patio with a cozy firepit and a shady covered patio at the rear—both perfect for outdoor entertaining or quiet evenings. A large shed provides additional storage, and a private driveway ensures parking is never a problem. Enjoy unbeatable access to shopping, dining, and recreation—just minutes from the W&OD Trail, Glencarlyn Dog Park, and Long Branch Nature Center. Convenient to Route 50, I-395, I-66, and only 8.2 miles to Reagan National Airport. Located in the highly regarded Carlin Springs Elementary, Kenmore Middle, and Washington-Liberty High School pyramid. Be sure to check the documents section for a full list of updates—and don’t miss your chance to own this turnkey home in a peaceful neighborhood with no HOA or condo fees and easy access to everything Arlington has to offer!
