4427 Brookside Drive

Description

This home is genuinely one of a kind! 4427 Brookside Drive was custom built in 1990 by the seller and his team. A show-stopping Traditional home built on a breathtaking lot, this 5 bedroom, 3 full baths and 1 half bath home spans across 4,200 square feet on a 1.4 acre lot. The original owners loved their time living here and it shows in the structural integrity and overall quality of this home! Sitting at the rear of a tucked away lot, the long driveway separates you from the main neighborhood road- truly an oasis in the heart of the suburbs! Walking into the home, you are greeted with a light filled foyer with sky high cathedral ceilings, accented with a timeless gold chandelier and curved staircase. To your right is the formal dining room and to your left, the formal living room and office space. Walking through the foyer, you are standing on brand new plush carpet in the large open concept space containing the family room and a fully renovated eat-in island kitchen. As you walk into the family room, you are met with floor to ceiling windows capturing views of the backyard, which includes a picturesque meadow and babbling creek, all part of your property! The family room and office share a glass panel gas fireplace, a touch of modernity to this classic abode. Around the corner from the kitchen, you have an extension to your kitchen and interior access to the sprawling attached 2-car garage. The garage is like no other, oversized with protective walkways surrounding the cars to avoid tracking of wet and snow from the car into the house. Going upstairs, you find a primary bedroom with vaulted ceilings and an en-suite bathroom showcasing new flooring throughout. The upper level also holds three more spacious, newly carpeted bedrooms and the laundry room with plenty of space for all those linens! The newly carpeted lower level contains the fifth bedroom which includes an en-suite bathroom. The recreation room is massive, perfect for holiday entertaining or hosting a movie night! The den is a bonus room on this level, the perfect space for a playroom, gym or extra storage. The lower level leads you right out onto the stone patio, in immaculate condition along with the luxury vinyl raised deck. This is where you see the cherry on top of this home- the meadow and creek to enjoy. Oftentimes, you will find yourself observing wildlife grazing on the lush grass, birds singing in the bountiful trees, and the most glorious sunsets you could ever imagine. You have everything and more right here, you may never want to leave! But if you do, you are in the prime location in Alexandria, where the DC Metropolitan Area is practically right outside your front door! Proximity to I-395 and access to Washington DC, Reagan National Airport and Old Town puts the house in one of the best locations for ease of living and quality of life. Grocery stores and convenient shopping is less than 5 minutes away and there are at least 20 restaurants within 10 minutes (calling all foodies!). This home is the jack of all trades- a perfect sanctuary from the bustling urban life, a prime spot for hosting amazing get-togethers and parties, and most of all, the site of past and future lifelong memories with friends and loved ones. This home could be yours, and you'd love it just as much as the original owners did!
