Walls have been knocked down to create a one-of-a-kind open concept, light-filled kitchen, and main living area in this Burke townhouse.  Wonderful updates include contemporary light fixtures and tile backsplash detailing and a very functional but gleaming silver exhaust fan to complement the stainless steel appliances and warm wooden cabinetry. This very cozy and central part of this home leads to, on beautiful hardwood flooring that really warms up this main level space, the living room and dining area. From here, one can expand the entertaining and eating space to the beautifully situated pavered patio outdoors that looks out to a gorgeous view of a seemingly private forest.  Head on up to the bright and airy primary bedroom, bedrooms 2 and 3, and an updated full bath which completes the upper level.  The scent of fresh, new, neutral-toned carpeting guides you down to the lower level with its generously sized recreational area.  Worth noting - thousands of dollars of savings with the installed egress window - in case you want to convert to a large bedroom number 4.   A second full bath and an equally large sized laundry and utility room complete the lower level. Other noteworthy features: 2017 roof with 25 year warranty; 2015 energy efficient windows; wired for both Fios and Cox. With the local neighborhood elementary school across the street, as well as shops and restaurants in close proximity, locals love the small town feel.  Commuters will appreciate the range of convenient transportation options such as:  public transportation via the VRE and Fairfax Connector, plus quick and easy access to major arteries like the Fairfax County Parkway and Route 123. Lots of outdoor opportunities such as community playgrounds and extensive walking trails are available close by as well as community swimming pools and a nearby indoor pool. This townhome is a gem ... definitely worth having to call home!
