5801 WESTCHESTER STREET

ALEXANDRIA, VA 22310

Welcome to 5801 Westchester Street, a magnificent 6 bedroom and 5 full-bath custom brick-front colonial by highly respected Morris Construction backing to trees and sited on a third of an acre lot in Alexandria’s popular Bush Hill Woods. Professional landscaping and curved planting beds tastefully frame the home and provide great curb appeal. A slate walkway, brick steps and stoop and covered front entrance provide a classy welcome. The impressive 2-story foyer has a large Palladian window with sidelights, ceiling medallion and a plant shelf. There are classic sand-in-place solid oak hardwood floors on the main and upper levels. Extensive upgraded moldings adorn the main and upper levels too. Working from home is a breeze with the main level office, with its built-in shelves and cabinets. It could easily serve as a main-level bedroom too as there’s a full bath down the hall. Custom built-in bookcases flank the inviting gas fireplace with its granite surround and wood mantel in the family room. The formal living room has elegant chair-rail, crown and box moldings and the second fireplace with a marble surround and detailed wood mantel. There’s a bay window in the eat-in kitchen along with rich solid cherry cabinets with under-cabinet lighting, white tile backsplash, granite counters and stainless appliances that were new in 2021. The microwave is brand-new. Off the kitchen, glass-panelled doors lead to the cheerful sunroom with walls of windows with transoms above and a high ceiling. Step out from the sunroom to the huge deck overlooking trees - the perfect spot for grilling, relaxing or entertaining. Steps descend to the private and beautifully landscaped and maintained rear grounds. Upstairs, there are 4 spacious bedrooms - all with ceiling fans - and 3 full baths. The stunning owner’s suite has a sitting room the size of a bedroom, two walk-in closets, two dormer windows with window seats, vaulted ceilings and lots of extra storage in the eaves. You’ll see a jetted deep-soaking tub in the owner’s bath along with two vanities with quartz countertops, seamless glass shower doors, nice tilework and recessed and dimmable lighting. The expansive lower level features two large bedrooms - one with 4 windows - a full bath, two storage rooms plus a separate finished storage/office room and the tremendous rec room with lots of windows and lights. Step out from there to the excellent wrap-around patio. Keep your vehicles pristine in the oversized garage, which has a window and door to the side yard. This fine home is tucked away on a quiet street, yet close to everything - within 10 minutes of three Metro stops, all commuter routes, shopping, restaurants and just a quick hop to Old Town Alexandria!
