Fall in Love with This Gorgeous Listing

When you think of fall, what comes to mind? Leaves turning vibrant shades of orange, yellow, and red? Cozy sweaters and the reemergence of your favorite boots? Crisp nights and fall parties outside — preferably ones around an outdoor fireplace? Halloween costumes and trick-or-treating and, shortly after, Thanksgiving preparations? Sunday night football?At 6033 Grove Drive, you can enjoy all of these seasonal activities and more within a picturesque home built for quintessential suburban living. We’ve drawn up some of our favorite fall scenarios and imagined how perfectly they would fit into life at our lovely listing in Belle Haven. 

1) Taking in the fall foliage

One of the best vistas of the colorful autumn leaves is found jogging, biking, or driving down the George Washington Parkway. If you lived on Grove Drive, these views would be built in to your ride to or from Old Town and Mount Vernon. 

2) Enjoying delightfully moderate temperatures and the autumn sunshine

The yard at 6033 Grove Drive, with its exquisite landscaping and beautiful multi-level patio, is one of the best around. Gather around the outdoor fireplace, roasting s’mores under string lights with friends and family at night, then savor your morning cup of coffee on one of two patios off of the kitchen the next day. If the temperature’s a little chilly, you can still get your Vitamin D fix in the sun-drenched garden room that overlooks the lovely front yard. 

3) Watching football

Whether you’re more into college football or the NFL, the spacious living room is an ideal place to watch your team play. Call your friends, grab a 12-pack, pop some apps in the oven, and make it a party. 

4) Getting ready for fall events

5) Going all out for Halloween

Once you have your costumes all set, the hard part is over. There are so many households in Belle Haven that kick it into high gear for trick-or-treaters, so there won’t be any shortage of candy — or safe streets to stroll.
