What is perfection? Come see 5122 N 26th Street as it surely is as close to that as can be!! This Arlington classic Colonial with 3 bedrooms and 1.5 baths has been updated with taste and a careful eye to style and quality and located on a picture perfect street! Why is this home so perfect? Well lets see.! The central air conditioning is 5 years old, gas heat is 10 years old , the architectural shingle roof is 8 months old, new driveway with parking for 2 cars (plus street parking) remodeled kitchen (stunning with stone countertops painted wood cabinetry, stainless steel, appliances, tile backsplash) and baths all done in hi end and tasteful style. Original hard wood flooring sparkles. Add comfort to the description for this one of a kind home as it is light and bright. When you walk up the manicured, landscaped walkway with slate and stone stairs to the architecturally correct portico, and open the door...you might say..."I'd like to live here!" Once inside, the main-level living room transitions to an open kitchen/dining space and further into a lovely urban-style sunroom (this owner enclosed the original porch). You will also find a first floor bedroom (or office) with en-suite half-bath with Euro potty! The upper level is also updated to perfection with 2 bedrooms (one with exterior access to deck space) and remodeled full hall bathroom. The lower level has a cozy game room/rec room area, plenty of storage and laundry/utility room. Exit the lower level through walk out stairs to the private, magical back garden with an elegant brick patio, stone paths surrounded by beautiful trees, mature landscaping with sprinkler system and professional drainage system. All of this within walking distance to schools, shops, eateries, public transportation, airports and a stone's throw to the Nation's Capital!
