This House Should Be in a Magazine
You know those houses you see in magazines like Southern Living, the ones that seem so unattainable, so far away, so not right here in Alexandria, Virginia? Kitchens with quartz or marble counters, sunrooms where you picture yourself curling up with a cup of coffee and good book, master bedrooms that look like five-star hotels, backyards that make your jaw drop?
Oftentimes when we think of splendid southern homes, we think of places like South Carolina or Georgia, not Northern Virginia. Just wait until you see 6033 Grove Drive. This renovated Belle Haven Colonial is a house that will make you realize that you’re in quite a splendid place yourself, somewhere sought-after, picturesque, and magazine-worthy — yes — here in Alexandria. Located on a tranquil cul de sac offering exceptional privacy, this 3-bedroom, 3-bath house is completely renovated and decorated with designer fixtures and features throughout.
The most spectacular of these is a chef’s kitchen and breakfast room, newly remodeled by High Country Cabinets, with stain-resistant quartz countertops, beaded inset, soft-close cabinets, Thermador appliances, a hidden refrigerator, a solid walnut desktop, walnut inlay in the cutlery drawers, European tile backsplash, a farmhouse sink, and the list goes on.The rest of the house is just as incredible, from the dining room with coffered ceilings, living room with built-in bookshelves, and sun/play room comprising the main level, to the master suite with custom closets and a renovated marble bath, two additional bedrooms and a second renovated full marble bath, to the finished lower level, complete with an inviting family room with a gas fireplace and a third remodeled bath.
Then we have the backyard. Where to begin? Everything is ready for your alfresco summer dinner parties. The first tier of the flagstone patio functions beautifully as a table and grill area and steps up to a second flagstone patio around an exquisite outdoor fireplace. Also included in this dream yard are a lush lawn and magnificent landscaping, third patio off of the kitchen, a picture-perfect insulated shed (yes, even the shed is photo-ready), and a majestically landscaped front yard with solar-powered up-lighting that makes the house shine at night.I’ll stop talking here because, really, these pictures speak for themselves.
6033 Grove Drive will be open Sunday, May 6th from 2-4pm.
