Solid 1941 North Arlington Rambler, with 1985 LA’s Topanga Canyon inspired remodel and expansion designed by a Washington DC Architect.

Natural light streaming in from three sides and the cupola above complete the warm and inviting atmosphere set by the timeless Terra Cotta floors, the exposed beams and easy flow around the perfectly proportioned center island. The raised wood burning stove, at the opposite end of the pantry (with main level laundry) adds the penultimate touch! Quartz counters added 2020.

Entering the home from the similarly inspired covered front portico, leads through the vestibule, front door and granite floored foyer into the surprise open space of the expansive main living and entertaining area, along the rear of the home, which flows easily into the amazing kitchen.

Banks of corner windows flank each side of the gas fireplace and views of trees, nature and the pool below immediately send you to your happy place. The added bonus separate dining room on the front of the house could potentially temporarily (with some added walls) function as a third main level bedroom should that be a more suitable living arrangement at any point in time.

The lower level, reached by a neatly tucked out-of-the-way windowed stairwell, is anchored by a wide, tile-floored gallery hallway down the center, which leads the way to the pool (via the dry bar) and connects the two bedrooms and den as well as the full bath. An overall welcoming space that guests, shorter or longer term, can enjoy while life upstairs continues on without them.

All appliances and major systems have been kept up to date and maintained. Pool has been opened and closed annually, serviced throughout the season and used regularly. Your chance to live in close in Arlington on half an acre!
