Staycation Destination: 8120 Bard Street

Staycation Destination!!!  I love this Harbor View community and the home at Bard Street.  This adorable split level offers a tremendous recreational and commuter option for a lucky buyer. As an avid boater and lover of coastal and waterfront communities, this home is intriguing. Harbor View is idyllic with a community boat launch, boat slips, picnic area, boat ramp, and easy navigation into the Potomac River. Enjoy walking in the neighborhood with water views and tree-lined streets.  The homes in the community are well spaced and sited on large private lots.  8120 Bard enjoys an easy to live floor plan.   I love the large recreation room with a built-in bookcase and a huge wood-burning fireplace with a traditional brick hearth.  This level enjoys a full bathroom and a large utility area with a side exit.  The main level offers a spacious living room, a formal dining room, an updated eat-in kitchen with granite counters, and stainless steel appliances.  Four ample bedrooms to include a well-appointed master en-suite with a private deck overlooking an in-ground swimming pool.  The home also offers a 2 car tandem garage with dual entry, one in the front of the home, and one in the rear of the home.  A large separate office which has its own heating and air conditioning system has been used to run a family-owned business.  This space is perfect for "working from home" and being away from the rest of the family.  No interruptions here!!  The outdoor living areas are fantastic.  The large level lot features a beautiful covered porch with skylights and ceiling fan.  This is a perfect picnic spot and a watching spot as the views of the pool are unobstructed.  A large in-ground swimming pool with a deep end and diving board will ensure hours and years of family splashing fun.  No more worries about sharing a community pool when you have your own.  Only minutes away from 2 VRE Stations and Interstate 95. Easy access to the Pentagon, Fort Belvoir, Crystal City, Washington DC, and Quantico.  If you live in the city or high rise and want to get out to the Country but still be close in, this may be your perfect oasis.  No reason to go anywhere when you have a resort in your home!!
