Welcome home to this updated all brick 2600 square foot raised rambler nestled on the perfect half acre-plus lot, backing to a golf course. This light-filled home enjoys an open floor plan, thanks to a delightful kitchen renovation, opening the kitchen to the living room and dining room. Updates throughout also include the HVAC and water heater in 2024, windows in 2021, and roof in 2020. Beautiful finished-on-site hardwoods grace the main level, including all three bedrooms, and much of the lower level. The living room overlooks the front garden through a large bay window and enjoys a wood-burning fireplace. The dining room is currently being used as a family/TV room and has access to the side yard. Three bedrooms on the main level include a primary suite with a completely updated bath, both overlooking the backyard. Two ancillary bedrooms share an updated hall bath. On the lower level, an enormous rec room/game room enjoys a walk out to the fenced backyard. A large 4th bedroom has its own full bath on this level, and a wet bar/kitchenette makes the lower level ideal for an in-law or nanny suite. The kitchenette offers a double sink, dishwasher and full-size refrigerator. Outside, the perfect "playable" backyard, with a large shed and a generous carport for two cars. The yard is fenced and backs to the Penderbrook Golf Course. There is no HOA but you can choose to join the community of Penderbrook amenities which includes numerous amenities, including a state-of-the-art health club as well as swimming pools and tennis courts, a party room and club house. Amenity fees apply if you choose to join. Schools are Waples Mill Elementary, Franklin Middle and Oakton High School. The location is unparalleled for shopping and restaurants, with close proximity to Wegmans, Whole Foods, Harris Teeter, Costco. Short drive to Fairfax Corner and Reston Towne Center.
