Located on a quiet, low-traffic tree-lined street in a peaceful neighborhood, this classic split-level home offers a special opportunity. With approximately 2,200 square feet, this single-family residence is in the highly desirable Valewood Manor neighborhood, which feeds into the Oakton High School pyramid. Upon entering, you're greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere. The traditional floor plan features a sunny bay window and natural oak hardwoods that seamlessly connect to the kitchen and dining areas. The kitchen offers oak cabinetry, granite counters, a deep sink, gas cooking, and brand-name appliances. A staircase leads from the living room to three upstairs bedrooms, all with natural oak flooring and ceiling fans. The primary bedroom has its own private bath with a porcelain tile floor. The lower level includes a comfortable recreation room with recessed lighting and a real wood-burning fireplace, perfect for cozy evenings. This room also leads to a spacious screened porch with lovely slate flooring, ideal for enjoying birdsong and fresh air. This level also includes a full bathroom and a large laundry area. The recreation room connects to a basement with a large den that provides flexible uses, such as an art studio, home school area, or a sizable private office.
