Three more bright, ample bedrooms, each with good exposures, closets, and lighting, and a well designed laundry room finish the second floor. Downstairs there is an enormous, well lit recreation room with bonus space for a workout or crafts, a fifth full daylight bedroom with its own entrance, a full bath, and massive, well organized, utility / storage space.

All this, gleaming hardwood floors, custom finishes, tasteful decor, thoughtful improvements, and an 11,000+ sq ft lot (don’t miss the bonus area / dog run behind the office), close to shopping, parks, and Arlington’s popular award winning schools.
