About This Home
As of February 2025Welcome to 5617 Bellington Avenue, an expanded split-level home offering 4-5 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and situated on a beautifully landscaped 0.27-acre lot in the highly sought-after North Springfield area. This thoughtfully updated residence seamlessly blends charm with modern updates, providing the ideal setting for both relaxation and entertainment.
As you approach the home, you'll immediately notice the meticulously designed landscaping, featuring a beautiful, mature magnolia tree, Japanese maples, flowering laurels and azaleas, black-eyed Susans, and more. A charming brick walkway leads you to the freshly painted front door, welcoming you inside to the spacious living, dining, and kitchen areas. The inviting living room boasts a large bay window and a cozy gas fireplace—perfect for unwinding on a snowy day. Oak hardwood floors flow throughout the living, dining, and upper-level bedrooms, while wide-plank flooring graces the lower level, adding a touch of elegance.
The expansive dining area is ideal for hosting gatherings with friends and loved ones, while French doors open to a serene patio that overlooks your private, naturally landscaped backyard oasis. Fully enclosed by a privacy fence, the backyard provides ample space for outdoor activities and entertainment, complete with a custom water feature and rock gardens that add a tranquil ambiance. For additional outdoor storage, you'll find both a high quality, detached shed and a covered storage area attached to the rear of the carport.
Back inside, the kitchen has been fully renovated with 42" maple cabinetry with task lighting, sleek granite countertops, and chef-quality stainless steel appliances, including a JennAir gas range - perfect for culinary enthusiasts.
Upstairs, you'll find 3 spacious bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, including a primary suite with an en-suite bathroom. Custom closet organizers provide ample storage, ensuring that everything has its place.
The lower level offers surprising versatility and space. The cozy family room features custom built-ins, a side entry, and a spacious laundry room with a utility sink and second refrigerator. A 4th bedroom, complete with two closets, could also serve as an ideal home office. A convenient half-bathroom offers easy access.
The standout feature of the lower level is the rear great room addition. Designed and constructed during the current owner’s tenure, this 500+ square foot expansive space offers endless possibilities as a master bedroom, mother-in-law suite, or additional family room. The large walk-in closet with organizers provides the option for a secondary primary suite, while the room’s abundant natural light, soaring ceilings, recessed lighting, and wall-mounted flat-screen TV make it perfect for a rec room or home theater. With a separate entrance, this space could also serve as a short-term rental or AirBnB with great potential for additional income. And don’t miss the hidden storage/safe room, cleverly tucked behind a pivoting custom built-in - a truly unique feature!
Additional home upgrades demonstrate the pride of ownership, including a professionally encapsulated crawl space, cellulose attic insulation with pull-down stairs to extra storage, an upgraded electrical panel, a replaced main sewer line, and oversized gutters. The entire interior of the home has also been freshly painted.
The location of 5617 Bellington Avenue strikes the perfect balance of tranquility and convenience. Enjoy easy access to major commuting routes, shopping, dining, and groceries, while nearby Lake Accotink and the Cross County Trail offer opportunities for outdoor recreation. The St. James sports and fitness complex is also just a short drive away.
