About this home

Welcome to 247 Potomac Road. This home has been remodeled from top to bottom. Highlights include refinished hardwood floors throughout, recessed lighting, loaded kitchen & baths, open concept kitchen & dining room, bonus lower level, screened porch, fenced yard, and valuable major system upgrades. All of this, in one of the most popular, established, and well-located north Wilmington neighborhoods of Fairfax. Step inside to the lovely living room with hardwood floors and recessed lighting, and flow into the open concept kitchen & dining room, with built-ins and coffee bar. This bright, white kitchen features white granite countertops and tile backsplash, 42-inch cabinets with soft-close drawers, stainless steel appliances, large island with seating, and contemporary fixtures. From the kitchen, step outside to the ideal outdoor space, a screened porch overlooking a lovely flat, fenced, and landscaped backyard, which will undoubtedly be one of your favorite spots to dine, entertain, relax & unwind on those warm days and nights. Finishing out the first level is the first of 4 bedrooms and a full remodeled bathroom (or use this space for a first-floor office, den, or playroom). Hardwood floors continue upstairs and throughout all 3 bedrooms, and where you’ll also find the second updated full bathroom. The lower level of this home hosts the laundry and a bonus space to utilize however you feel most inspired…. a movie room, office, or rec room. Not only is this home completely renovated and move-in ready, but it offers huge value with its new heater, new A/C, new roof, and 14 new windows (all in 2019) AND a new fence which will be installed prior to settlement! It doesn’t get any better than this in North Wilmington. Be sure to view the virtual tour and schedule your showing today!
