Introducing 5840 21st Street North in Parkhurst Park, a charming and expanded Cape Cod on one of Arlingtons most sought after cul-de-sacs. The uniqueness of living within a park can only truly be appreciated by taking in the peaceful setting and natural views on the grounds. Every perspective, from the rear garden patio, to the upper level window views, reminds you that a property in the heart of it all can indeed still offer a private and personal experience. Leave the car at home, this is a walkers dream located steps from the park playground, the newly opened Cardinal Elementary School, and Westover Shopping Center. Enjoy ice cream at Tobys, a cold one at the beer garden, or grab a bite at The Lost Dog Cafe. The Westover neighborhood perfectly intersects a close-in location just ten minutes from DC, with a pedestrian-friendly, community-centric neighborhood. ***** SOME ADDITIONAL FEATURES AND UPGRADES: MAIN LEVEL Large renovated kitchen * recessed lighting * crown molding * stainless steel appliances * custom tile backsplash * tile flooring * granite countertops * upgraded cabinetry with stainless steel pulls * Amazing rear sunroom facing patio/park * wood floors * fireplace * ceiling fan * beadboard mantle * built-ins * custom lighting & built-in wood window valances * full bathroom * formal living room * wood floors * second fireplace * brick & wood mantle * formal dining room * crown/dental molding * ceiling medallion molding * first floor bedroom/office * wood floors * built-ins UPPER LEVEL Owners bedroom * carpet (wood floors under carpet) * Extra storage/closet space * second bedroom * carpet (wood floors under carpet) * third bedroom with separate office/crib space * wood floors * built-ins * extra closet space * remodeled hall bathroom LOWER LEVEL Large basement area great for storage * finished exercise/playroom * exterior door access * basement waterproof system * windows EXTERIOR Detached garage * driveway for additional parking * extraordinary rear flagstone patio * wood board fence * gated access to park in rear of property * Landscaped with flagstone walkways * cul-de-sac location UPGRADES: RECENT: New Carrier A/C Unit * New Stainless Steel Whirlpool wall oven with Accubake Temp Management * Rebuilt chimney from roof up, including new stainless steel liner (2019) * Refinished hardwood floors * New Carrier gas furnace with WIFI programmable thermostat * Installed 3 Pella windows (basement) * Repaved driveway * Installed Elfa closet system (2nd floor bedroom) * Kitchen renovation * Electrical panel replacement PREVIOUS: Replaced water heater * Replaced/upgraded galvanized water piping with copper (basement, kitchen & bathrooms) * Fence * Rear landscaping, including retaining wall & flagstones * New carpet * Roof replacement * New front retaining wall * New crawl space doors * Remodeled second floor bathroom * Remodeled first floor bathroom * New flagstone walkways * Replaced water main shutoff valve * washer and dryer (Kenmore) * Replaced windows throughout * Vent free gas logs (family room)
