real estate

When John Ball received a 166 acre land grant from Lord Fairfax in 1742, he may not have  imagined that his land bordering Four Mile Run would lead to the Ballston community that now bears his name.

Nor could he have imagined that the fruit, vegetables and livestock that he and his wife, Elizabeth, grew on their farm in the Glencarlyn neighborhood would now be readily available at Ballston’s Harris-Teeter grocery store or in the many nearby restaurants and cafes. What John Ball could not imagine is available to the new owner of this two or three bedroom, three level townhouse on a quiet street in the heart of Ballston.

Step inside this lovely 3-story townhouse and immediately feel at home! Nestled away in Arlington’s Windgate II neighborhood, surrounded by manicured landscaping offering a park-like setting, yet close and convenient to everything!

Be greeted by warm hardwood flooring as you pass through the foyer and enter the bright and updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, a built-in pantry and direct sightlines to the entire main level. Pull up stools and dine at the breakfast bar or enjoy a meal in the separate yet connected dining room. The dining room leads to a relaxed living room accompanied by a brick wood-burning fireplace and French doors to the outside deck, with plenty of space for your herb garden and seating to enjoy the great outdoors.

This renovated Craftsman is a rarity. The landscaping is one of kind. A wide foyer flanked with windows makes a perfect entrance. The open floor plan is perfect for entertaining.

The hardwood floors give a warm comforting feel. The front living room with a fireplace leads to the dining space.
