Introducing 4030 16th Street South Arlington’s charming Cape Cod residence nestled in the Douglas Park neighborhood. This move-in-ready house sits on a large corner lot backed by a wooded park. The private parking space pulls into South Randolph Street and accommodates up to five cars.
Major renovations completed in 2014 and continuously upgraded and maintained, this home offers hardwood floors, new carpet, upgraded windows and doors, tastefully renovated bathrooms, and ample built-in shelves and storage solutions throughout the house. Each upgrade was done with care, love, and meticulous attention to detail, including soft-close drawers, cordless blinds, a nest thermostat, smoke and carbon monoxide combo detectors, level three premium duct cleaning, and even lush landscaping outside the fence!
Upon entry, you're welcomed into a bright traditional living room with fresh paint. The main floor offers two bedrooms, a full bathroom with walk-in shower and classic design, and a thoughtfully designed kitchen with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and a butler’s pantry! As you keep exploring, an expansive sunroom offers views of the lush surroundings, floods of natural light, and unexpected privacy. Step outside to the oversized freshly stained deck, brick patio, and expansive yard with beautiful landscaping, perfect for outdoor entertaining. Here you can enjoy the enchanting glow of string lights at sunset. The backyard is complete with a recently added shed and covered storage for workshops, tools and bikes.
Upstairs, the master bedroom boasts a vaulted ceiling with dimmable recessed lights and a tastefully designed master bathroom with a chandelier gracefully suspended from the vaulted ceiling. The walk-in closet has built-in drawers and double hangers, and from here, you will find an entrance to a bonus room tucked away in the attic that can be used for crafting, sewing, a playroom, a reading nook, or as an escape to write your next book.
The basement provides additional living space with a family room, a laundry area with counter space and a sink, and a versatile room suitable for an office or exercise area. There is also an Au Pair suite with a private bathroom – not an official bedroom. In addition, this home is zoned R-6, allowing up to 6 units on the lot or build a stand alone ADU (affordable dwelling unit) - endless possibilities to expand in the future.
Parks, playgrounds, the W&OD Bike Trail, American and international restaurants, shops, and services are all minutes away by walking or driving. Reagan National Airport is just a 10-minute drive! Commuting to DC or other major locations can be done via major commuter routes such as Rt 50, 395, and I-66 or the metro and bus system. Come and see and welcome! Claim this house as yours!
