Property Description
This is the Arlington home for buyers who want the charm of an established neighborhood without taking on someone else's renovation project. Thoughtfully reimagined from top to bottom, 2408 2nd Street South offers 4 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms and three finished levels in the heart of Penrose. This is far more than a cosmetic updatethe work has already been done, from the spaces you see every day to many of the major systems and improvements that matter for years to come. Step inside to refinished hardwood floors, new drywall, recessed lighting, new light fixtures, interior doors and trim, creating a bright, fresh interior throughout. At the center of the home is a completely renovated kitchen with new cabinetry, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances and modern finishes designed for everyday living and entertaining. All three full bathrooms have been completely renovated, while the upper level creates a private primary retreat with its own full bathroom, dedicated laundry room and additional flexible space for a home office, reading area or sitting room. The finished lower level adds an entirely different dimension to the home. With a bedroom, full bathroom, spacious family room, kitchenette, second laundry area and walk-out access to the backyard, it offers exceptional flexibility for overnight guests, extended household living, a private work-from-home setup or simply additional everyday living space. And the improvements go well beyond what you can see. The home features a new HVAC system serving the upper two levels, a separate mini-split system for the lower level, new energy-efficient windows, new exterior and interior doors, updated lighting, hardwired smoke detectors, and a whole-house backup generatorfeatures that allow the next owner to spend less time thinking about projects and more time enjoying the home. The roof was installed in 2023. Outside, the landscaping has been refreshed and the fully fenced, level backyard offers room to entertain, garden, play or simply unwind. A private driveway provides convenient off-street parking. All of this is set in Penrose, close to neighborhood parks, Columbia Pike's restaurants, shops and everyday conveniences, with easy access to Pentagon City, downtown Arlington and Washington, D.C. If you've been searching for an Arlington home where the renovation has already been handledfrom the finishes you notice immediately to the improvements you appreciate over time2408 2nd Street South deserves to be experienced in person.
