2423 N OHIO Street

"Welcome to 2423 N. Ohio. A custom created cape situated on a beautifully landscaped lot on a picturesque street just a .07 mile walk to the East Falls Church Metro. Don’t let your eyes fool you, this home is much larger than you might imagine from the front elevation view. Design elements inspired by the popular ""Not So Big House"" series provide for long views from front door to backyard, soffeted ceilings and lighting to create defined family spaces and French doors to create two sound-contained task spaces, perfect for working at home. This traditional Arlington cape has been transformed & expanded into an entertainer’s delight, with a generously sized screened in porch, an expanded family and dining area, as well as the oversized upstairs primary suite. As daily life might dictate, you’ll enter through the mud room door to a beautifully appointed space with radiant floor heat to keep your toes toasty in the winter. The mud room is outfitted with 2 large reach-in closets, a storage style window seat with custom uppholstery and additional cubby hole storage and coat hooks for keeping organized. Glass on three sides provides views to the garden as well as the Adirondak-inspired porch and backyard beyond. It’s evident much thought was put into the layout as ample storage was created in this space you are sure to appreciate. The living room greets you with beautiful hardwood floors, a classic wood burning fireplace and replacement windows casting an abundance of natural light throughout this space as well as the 2 separate office spaces housed on this level.

The family room and dining addition is the perfect space for families to gather and is directly off of the kitchen. It is also the second of 2 accesses out to the screened-in porch which feels just like a mountain top resort with ceilings fans, vaulted beamed ceilings, skylights and a gas fireplace to allow three-season use.
