Welcome to 6230 N 21st Street, a modernized classic Cape Cod nestled in the heart of North Arlington’s coveted Highland Park–Overlee Knolls neighborhood. With a seamless combination of elevated design and modern functionality, this residence is truly a rare opportunity in one of Arlington’s most desirable communities. A short walk to Westover Village and the East Falls Church Metro, experience 3302 square feet of finished living space combining timeless charm with luxurious, high-end finishes, offering both everyday comfort and sophisticated design. A major transformation in 2017–2018 introduced a spacious Great Room, a dedicated home office with private entrance, a luxurious primary suite, and a practical side entry/mudroom. Designed for today’s busy households, the side entrance features tile flooring, custom built-in cubbies, generous storage space, and a powder room—an ideal space to keep daily life organized and tidy. The main level welcomes you with natural light and a dramatic step-down Great Room boasting 10-foot ceilings, creating an expansive setting for everyday living and entertaining. An elegant dry bar thoughtfully connects the Great Room, kitchen and formal living and dining areas, making entertaining seamless and stylish. The fully renovated kitchen is a true culinary haven, featuring Brookhaven cabinetry, Silestone countertops, an oversized Blanco sink, and a professional-grade GE Café gas double oven range. With a center island, counter seating, two pantry closets, and a cozy, light-filled breakfast nook, this space is as functional as it is beautiful. Ideal for modern living, the main level also features a private home office with its own exterior entrance. The space is flooded with natural light and enjoys views of the deck and yard—perfect for work-from-home professionals, providing a rare and practical space for meeting clients or working in privacy. Upstairs, the grand primary suite provides a true retreat. Spacious enough for a king-sized bed with ample room to spare, this sanctuary includes both a walk-in closet and an additional reach-in closet. The en suite bath is a showstopper, with a custom walnut dual-sink vanity, Duravit sinks, concrete countertops, and a luxurious walk-in shower accented by sophisticated tile selections. Two additional bedrooms on the upper level share an updated hall bath featuring a Duravit Vanity, penny tile flooring, a tub/shower combo, and a solar tube for natural light. A bright and open nook offers an ideal space for a second home office or homework hub. This flexible space could also be enclosed, creating a fourth room with a closet and window. The lower level offers even more versatility, featuring a comfortable finished living area with natural light, a full bathroom, and a generously sized unfinished storage room with built-in shelving and a second refrigerator. This level could serve as a fourth bedroom suite, guest quarters, recreation room, or fitness studio—whatever suits your needs. Throughout the main and upper levels, gleaming hardwood floors add warmth and continuity, while a wood-burning fireplace in the living room enhances the home’s cozy charm. A dual heating system ensures year-round comfort, and the home has been freshly painted, creating a bright and welcoming atmosphere. Outdoor living shines here, with a massive IPE wood deck and matching siding offering unmatched durability and aesthetic appeal. The screened-in porch, added in 2021, is outfitted with built-in Infratech heaters for four-season enjoyment, making it a true extension of the interior living space. The flat, fully fenced backyard is perfect for entertaining, gardening, or play. Ideally situated within walking distance of parks, top-rated Arlington Schools, Westover shops and the East Falls Church Metro, this exceptional home blends classic Arlington charm with modern architectural design, providing the space, style and sophistication today’s buyers seek.
