Description
Welcome to 5757 Governors Pond, where thoughtful, high-end updates and meticulous maintenance make this truly move-in-ready home stand out. With over $30,000 in upgrades completed within the last year alone, virtually every detail has already been taken care of for the next owner.
The renovated gourmet kitchen features modern flat-panel cherry cabinetry, granite countertops, a marble backsplash with designer detail, quality stainless steel appliances, built-in shelving, pantry storage, and ample space for dining or a sitting area. An archway leads to the formal dining room, currently used as a TV room, overlooking the dramatic living room with vaulted ceilings, three palladium windows, built-in bookcases, and French doors opening to a Trex deck shaded by a maple tree for added privacy.
Upstairs, the oversized primary suite features vaulted ceilings, a walk-in closet with custom Elfa shelving, and an ensuite bath with cherry cabinetry, Mission-style tile work, glass-enclosed shower, jetted tub, and updated fixtures. Two additional bedrooms, an updated hall bath, and upper-level laundry complete the second floor. The bright lower level features brand-new Mohawk scratch-resistant flooring, modern baseboards, a gas fireplace, sliding glass doors to the patio and backyard, generous storage space, and plumbing already in place for a future bathroom or wet bar.
Recent improvements include a new HVAC system and thermostat, hot water heater, smart exterior lighting, garage door motor, upgraded lighting and hardware throughout, new smoke and CO detectors, and custom closet systems in every closet. Additional major updates include renovated bathrooms, replacement windows, a newer roof, and Trex decking, creating a home where there is truly nothing left to do but move in and enjoy. Ideally located close to Old Town Alexandria with easy access to Washington, DC, shopping, dining, and commuter routes, Governors Grove also offers a tranquil natural setting with walking trails, pond views, tennis courts, playground, and dog run.
