About This Home

As of November 2024

Freshly painted with a chic, on-trend color palette, this home is filled with an abundance of natural light. The kitchen is a true showstopper, featuring newer stainless steel appliances, a new dishwasher, gas cooking, and striking granite countertops. The kitchen also boasts a new sink, backsplash, hardware, and hardwood flooring—perfect for both casual meals and entertaining.

The dining room, with its gleaming hardwood floors, opens onto a newer sliding glass door leading to a charming deck and newer fully fenced backyard—ideal for outdoor relaxation. The cozy living room is highlighted by a beautifully updated fireplace with new shiplap and a mantle for added warmth and style.

The spacious primary bedroom offers two large closets and an updated en-suite bath. Bedroom two has been refreshed with new luxury vinyl plank flooring and fresh paint, while the generously sized third bedroom is rare for a townhome of this caliber.

Other recent improvements include fresh landscaping in the front and back, newly painted shutters, new window shades throughout, and a new backyard shed for extra storage. Enjoy the outdoors on the deck, perfect for grilling and entertaining.

This home also comes with two assigned parking spots and is conveniently located near top-ranked schools, shopping, dining, and the VRE for an easy commute to DC.

All that’s left is for you to turn the key and make 5888 Kara Place your new home!
