NEW UPDATES AS OF 10/2! Once home to a decorated Air Force pilot and helicopter historian — who raised his family here, kept his archives, and tinkered with model helicopters down in the basement — this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath midcentury brick home in Fort Washington carries a sense of history and pride you feel the moment you walk in. Spacious, move-in ready, and lovingly cared for — and cared about — by the same family for more than 60 years, it's ready for its next chapter. Beautiful hardwood floors run throughout the sunlit main level, where an updated kitchen means no projects and no punch list — just unpack and settle in.
Upstairs, three generously sized bedrooms are anchored by a very large primary suite with its own private sitting room, en suite bath, and two walk-in closets — a true retreat with room to spread out and relax. A cozy wood-burning fireplace warms the eat-in breakfast room on winter evenings, and a separate formal dining room is ready for entertaining.
Downstairs, the full finished basement — once the pilot's workshop for his archives and model helicopters — has just been refreshed with brand-new luxury vinyl plank (LVP) flooring and a new drywall ceiling, a bright, flexible space for a rec room, home office, playroom, or gym. The updates don't stop there: a newly upgraded electrical panel means the big-ticket systems are already handled.
Then there's the backyard — a tranquil retreat made for living outdoors. A gorgeous brick patio framed by mature landscaping, quiet enough that a summer afternoon stretches across the chaise lounges with a pitcher of lemonade and nowhere to be. Evenings move under the covered portico, where the loudest thing is the trees. An attached garage adds everyday convenience and generous storage.
Minutes from National Harbor's waterfront dining, shopping, the Capital Wheel, and Tanger Outlets, with Old Town Alexandria and DC an easy trip across the river — plus a straightforward commute to Joint Base Andrews, Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling (JBAB), and the Pentagon, an easy fit for a PCS move or military relocation to the DMV. Spacious, solid, and genuinely well-loved — all ready for you to make your mark and enjoy living outdoors in that tranquil backyard. Schedule your private showing today.
