About 898 N Kentucky St

Absolutely Stunning Charming Stone Cottage Perfectly Situated on One of the Best Lots in North Arlington! This Home has been owned by the same Family since it was custom built in 1940! Grandma had her choice of Lots in Brockwood and she selected this Large Wide Corner lot! The Stone Cottage is flanked by Rare symmetrical wings that allows for approximately 2,600sf +/- on 3 Levels. Home was designed with 4 Bedrooms and 3 Full baths! The exterior has a rear “Secret Garden” with 85 years of flowering bushes and trees that constantly “POP” with vibrant colors. The home is worth visiting just for the Landscaping Alone! This Home is VERY Solid with Good Bones AND has had the following Recent Upgrades: Newer Architectural Shingled roof with Plywood sheathing replaced, Electrical box (2010), Eaton CHSP MAX house surge protector, additional sub panel box, outlets updates (The electrical contractor removed part of the walls in the lower level to upgrade the wiring and outlets), Central AC/Gas Heat (2011) with Carrier Infinity ICS -Ultra Efficient to include MS-RM18003 Multivoltage UV Air purifier (2022), Aprilaire 700 Series whole house humidifier, New Stove, New LED Lighting inside and out, Painted inside and out. We have an estimate for 21 upgraded High End windows for $14,049. The Cottage has the Original Hardwood Floors on the top 2 levels and original Exposed beams in the gathering room! Property has endless possibilities: the original garage could be restored on the right side (see the curb cut in at the street). Several Builders have expressed interest in the Lot but are a little below asking price. The Family would Love to see the Cottage Cherished, Personalized and updated by Owners who can appreciate this Timeless Treasure. Outstanding Location: Leisurely walk to Bon Air Park, the scenic W&OD Trail, shops, cafes and unique restaurants! East Falls Church and Ballston Metros are very close. Must See in Person! You will NOT be Disappointed!! ************OPEN House, Sat June 28th, 1-3pm and Sunday June 29th, 1-3pm****************
