Property Description
First time EVER to market, this charming home located in one of Alexandria's most desirable neighborhoods, George Washington Park, was lovingly maintained by the original owner for nearly 70 years.
Larger than many other ramblers on the street with an original bump out on both levels, this property features a total of 2472 square feet to spread out in. With a smart blend of original 1950s features and modern updates, 608 Putnam will be a must see.
On the main level, the newly renovated eat-in kitchen (2020) boasts a bay window addition with gorgeous sunset views, along with white cabinetry, s/s appliances, granite counters, new electrical, and hardwood floors. The refinished original oak flooring extends throughout the main level living spaces as well as into each of the three bedrooms, while the full bath has retained its yellow and black tile, keeping the vintage charm.
A surprising treat, the fully in-tact and rare 1953 Kitchenette in the basement makes for an ideal in-law suite in the finished, walk-out lower level. There is also a generous amount of living space downstairs with both a recreation room and a 4th bedroom or office/gym area, plus a large storage room. The full bathroom is timeless with the original black and white tile.
Stepping outside to the fully fenced 8,000+ square foot lot, there is a playset and plenty of space to run around, as well as room to expand or build an addition one day.
The home stays warm and cozy with four sided brick, extra insulation, double paned windows (2011 and 2010), and a gas fireplace in the living room. Recent substantial updates include the roof, kitchen skylight, and chimney cap in 2020,A/C in 2019, and HWH in 2016.
GW Park is a quiet neighborhood within one walkable mile to King St Metro and Old Town, and incredibly convenient to DC via metro, train, or car - the location cannot be beat. Plus, zoned for MacArthur ES which is undergoing complete reconstruction.
