Welcome to Taylor Run a neighborhood as desirable as it is convenient. Tucked just off the main thoroughfare of Duke Street, 133 East Taylor Run Parkway offers the best of both worlds: close to everything, yet a quiet retreat. Love walkability? Youll be about a mile from King Street Metro, Amtrak, and VRE, with all the dining, shopping, and historic appeal of Old Town Alexandria just beyond. Everyday conveniences are at your fingertips with Whole Foods and Wegmans nearby, Douglas McArthur elementary school within walking distance, plus Angel Park just one street over complete with a playground, basketball court, and baseball field. Commuters will also appreciate quick on/off access to I-495. The home itself is a charming brick semi-detached with lovely and thoughtful updates. Gleaming hardwood floors span the top two levels, with ceramic tile flooring in the kitchen and lower level for easy care. Upstairs youll find three bedrooms sharing a retro-style hall bath, while the fully finished lower level (with walk-up access to the side yard) has a full bath and provides flexible space ideal as a rec room, home office, or even a 4th bedroom. The kitchen, with its own side entrance, features stainless steel appliances, expanded and striking granite counters with waterfall sides, and a matching backsplash. A wide pass-through connects seamlessly to the open dining and living rooms, creating an open and airy main level with loads of light! Outside, the front yard is fenced and adjacent to a driveway that easily fits two cars in tandem. The back is fully fenced with a large patio that abuts a terraced hillside, and is complete with an extensive drainage system (approx 2003) designed to handle even heavy downpours. With its great condition and enviable location, this home is truly one to see. Updates include A/C (approx 2006), W/D (approx 2004), Roof (approx 2018).
