Over 55? Thinking of moving to a delightful, well located, full of amenities over 55 community? Consider this three-finished-level, upgraded throughout, single home with two car garage in The Crest and the only floor plan in the community with a main level primary suite as well as a second primary suite on the upper level!!!! The front porch offers a gracious welcome which is enhanced in entering the great room: wonderfully light filled via numerous large windows, nine-foot ceilings, well designed space: living room with cozy gas log fireplace flowing into the gourmet kitchen (stainless appliances, granite counter and island tops, double oven, gas cooking, ceramic back splash, built in microwave, soft close cabinetry, +++) and dining space beyond. Perfect for whipping up a meal while still a part of the activities. Best of all on this level are the primary bedroom suite including multiple closets (one walk-in) and large bath with walk-in shower (three shower jets, bench, grab bar) and dual sinks; powder room; and the very generous sized mud/laundry room with convenient chore sink and direct access to the totally upgraded garage (sealed/decorative flooring and wall organizer). In other words TRUE one level living. Up the stairs are a TV/family/gathering room; three bedrooms, one of which is very generous sized with a walk-in closet and ensuite shower bath (the second primary bedroom suite); hall bath with tub and dual sinks; large storage room for those only occasionally utilized treasures. Lower level includes a huge recreation/media room with second gas log fireplace and space for a game area; den/at home office/exercise room; second large storage room; importantly: exterior egress. This fabulous house has so many extras not apparent to the naked eye such as hardwired internet extension system, Gutter Helmet guards and hardwater treatment system. All of this in the exceptional Crest of Alexandria community just down the road from the Hilltop Village Center Shopping Center with a great variety of restaurants, shopping and services. Even a Wegman’s. What more could one ask for? How ‘bout easy access to military amenities like at Fort Belvoir only a few minutes’ drive away. Franconia-Springfield Metro stop less than 2 miles. Hard to get better connected than this. Plus Huntley Meadows Park a short drive as well for hiking and exceptional bird watching. The Crest community provides a 5,546 square foot community center with living and dining area, cafe/bar area, small kitchen, yoga room, well-equipped gym, outdoor grill, patio and garden area, and a fire pit. Additionally, there are walking trails, Pickleball Courts, Picnic Shelter, four outdoor exercise stations; rest and reflection benches are positioned along the trail.
