Enjoy sweeping Lake Thoreau views from all three levels of this waterfront townhome, with direct access to Reston's largest lake and a private waterfront mooring. Outdoor living shines here: a large Trex deck overlooks the water and leads via stairs to a professionally landscaped backyard with native plantings, wired landscape lighting, and hand-stacked flagstone retaining walls. A dedicated GFCI outlet near the water makes lakeside entertaining and water activities easy, while the patio and rear yard offer a peaceful setting just steps from the shoreline. Inside, the main living level is designed to maximize the views. A contemporary ProVia Signet fiberglass front door with 3-lite glass opens to a tiled foyer and an updated powder room with a floating walnut vanity and shelving that convey. Ceramic tile continues through the breakfast area and into the well-appointed kitchen featuring soapstone countertops, KraftMaid cabinetry with soft-close drawers, a Maytag 5-burner electric range, stainless built-in microwave, Maytag dishwasher, and KitchenAid French-door refrigerator. Through an arched opening, the dining and family rooms showcase expansive lake views, sand-in-place hardwood floors, and a corner wood-burning fireplace with dual exposure. Updated sliding glass doors from both rooms open directly to the deck. The upper level offers a hardwood landing, three bedrooms, a linen closet, and a newly renovated hall bath. The primary suite captures serene lake views and includes an updated bath with a mirrored sliding barn door, custom cherry vanity by Virginia Hardwood Artisans, frameless shower, private commode area, and premium whisper exhaust fan with heater. The lower level features luxury vinyl tile flooring, a spacious recreation room with sliding glass doors to the patio and yard, a full hall bath, and a fourth bedroom with tranquil water views. An unfinished storage area houses the Whirlpool washer, GE dryer, Carrier heat pump furnace (2013), and 50-gallon AO Smith water heater (2014). The exceptional location places you just a short walk to South Lakes Village Center and provides direct access to Reston's 55-mile trail network, perfect for walking, kayaking, paddleboarding, and fishing.
