    ***OPEN HOUSE SUNDAY 4/12 1-4PM***Welcome home to this beautifully maintained and updated Hermitage model in the heart of sought-after West Springfield. Offering nearly 2,700 square feet of finished living space, this spacious 4-bedroom, 3 full and 1 half bath home blends classic charm with thoughtful modern upgrades. Step inside through the signature Charlestown-style entry foyer, where a grand curved staircase creates an elegant first impression. The main level features gleaming hardwood floors throughout, flowing into a large, inviting living room with a bay window, crown molding, and recessed lighting. The formal dining room is perfect for gatherings, accented with chair rail and crown molding. This townhome offers the rare option for a main level bedroom/office. The updated kitchen is a true centerpiece, showcasing 42” cherry cabinetry, quartz countertops, tiled backsplash, recessed and under-cabinet lighting, a generous pantry, and space for a breakfast table. From both the kitchen and dining room, step directly out to a stunning all-brick patio—an expansive, low-maintenance outdoor retreat ideal for entertaining or relaxing. Upstairs, hardwood flooring continues throughout all bedrooms. The spacious primary suite features crown molding and a thoughtfully designed layout with a walk-through closet (separated by a pocket door) leading to a fully remodeled luxury bath, complete with a separate walk-in shower and soaking tub. Additional bedrooms offer ceiling fan/light combinations, including a third bedroom with an oversized walk-in closet. The upper hall bath has also been tastefully updated. The lower level expands your living space with a huge 28-foot recreation room featuring charming knotty pine accent walls, abundant storage, and flexibility for multiple uses. A den with access to a full bath makes an ideal home office or guest suite. You’ll also find a finished laundry room with full-size washer and dryer, plus a separate utility room. Enlarged and replaced window wells provide added light and potential egress options. Major system updates offer peace of mind, including Andersen replacement windows, a recently installed architectural shingle roof, new hot water heater (2023), furnace (2022), updated electrical panel, and attic access with pull-down stairs and raised decking for additional storage. Enjoy the convenience of two assigned parking spaces just steps from the rear gate, along with ample street parking. The community HOA provides exceptional value, covering exterior maintenance such as painting, roof replacement, gutter cleaning, snow removal, trash and recycling, and upkeep of common areas and amenities. Ideally located, this home offers easy access to commuter routes including I-95, I-395, I-495, Fairfax County Parkway, and Franconia-Springfield Parkway. A Metro bus stop to the Pentagon is just steps away, and the VRE Rolling Road Station is only 1.5 miles from your door. You’re also close to Fort Belvoir and the Franconia-Springfield Metro (Blue Line). Outdoor enthusiasts will love being near Lake Accotink Park, a 493-acre park featuring a scenic 55-acre lake, trails, boating, mini golf, picnic areas, and more. The neighborhood itself offers sidewalks leading to tot lots and playgrounds, with optional memberships available at nearby community pools. Located within the highly sought-after West Springfield High School pyramid and offering Verizon FiOS availability, this home truly has it all—space, style, convenience, and community.
