About 1228 Melody Ln

Home filled with heritage and heart. This private yet oh-so convenient location might be the best kept secret neighborhood in Alexandria! Pulling up, the mature trees and oversized lot offer such a warm welcome along with the beautiful curb-appeal of this home. Inside, you will immediately notice the pride of ownership and meticulous care during the current owner's 33 year residency here. The very functional upper level flows nicely from the living area into the kitchen and right out onto the maintenance-free deck. It also includes an owner's suite, 2nd bedroom, full bath and a sitting room that could easily be converted back to a bedroom if needed. The lower level family room provides excellent natural light and a desire to cozy up next to the wood burning fireplace! A little flooring and finishing will turn this home into a 4 bedroom just like that. Many updates throughout including a new roof in '23, new kitchen in '18, nearly all of the windows replaced, flooring, paint, deck and more! The property is serviced by city sewer and water but the well is still in place for watering and washing. Hurry over to Melody Ln to claim your new home at a nice price!
