Welcome to 1503 N. Jefferson Street, a beautifully expanded and updated 1940's center hall colonial in the coveted Westover/Tara neighborhood and located minutes from Westover Village, five parks, and the Custis and W&OD trail.

Step inside to a sun-splashed main level showcasing hardwood floors throughout, elegant architectural details, and an easy, connected flow.

The inviting sunroom offers a peaceful retreat for morning coffee or afternoon reading.
The formal dining room welcomes large gatherings, while the gourmet kitchen impresses with a BlueStar 48" professional range, premium appliances, generous cabinetry, and a spacious island that opens to the family room, the true heart of the home. From here, French doors lead to an exceptional outdoor oasis, including a screened porch for year-round lounging, patio with built-in fireplace, 12-person Catalina hot tub beneath a lighted pergola, and firepit area, surrounded by lush landscaping for privacy and serenity.
On the upper level, the primary suite offers a luxurious escape with soaring ceilings, a spacious walk-in closet, and a spa-inspired bath with soaking tub and separate shower. Three additional spacious bedrooms share a hall bathroom thoughtfully updated to preserve its 1940's retro allure, blending nostalgic charm with modern comfort. A walk-up attic offers abundant storage.
The lower level becomes an intimate sanctuary, highlighted by a gorgeous floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace and a spa-quality bathroom featuring a 4-person sauna and a separate shower appointed with a river-rock floor and luxurious spa shower system. An expansive media room/in-law suite invites relaxation, while a fitness room, adds flexibility. A large storage room and laundry room complete this thoughtfully designed level.
