Colonial

Welcome to 5791 Valley View Drive, a beautifully updated Austen model on a quiet street in Alexandria’s sought-after Oakbrook Knolls community. This stately brick-front colonial has a 2-car garage and great curb appeal. As you enter, you are greeted by the grand two-story foyer, and gleaming hardwood floors flow throughout the main level. This terrific home has been freshly painted, and the many windows fill the space with natural light. Elegant crown molding in the living and dining areas adds a touch of class, while sophisticated columns frame the entrance to the dining room, enhanced by classic chair rail. Charming French doors open to the main-level home office, making working from home a breeze. The gorgeously updated eat-in kitchen features recessed lighting, Corian countertops, sleek stainless appliances, including a Bosch double oven and GE Profile stove, and a useful island with an overhang for barstool seating. It opens seamlessly to the spacious family room featuring a cozy fireplace with a marble surround and classic white built-in bookshelves lining the walls. Step out to the expansive back deck with views of lush evergreen trees, a perfect place to unwind or entertain family and friends. Upstairs, you’ll find three full baths and four generously sized bedrooms, each featuring a closet with built-in shelving for enhanced organization. The roomy and light-filled owner’s suite has a triple window and a large walk-in closet complete with custom built-in organizers. The luxuriously remodeled en-suite bath has floor-to-ceiling subway tile in the glass-enclosed shower, which features a rainforest showerhead, a chic vanity with double vessel sinks, and a modern freestanding soaking tub beneath a sunny window with plantation shutters. The lower level includes an additional bedroom and full bath, a laundry and utility room with ample storage space, and a grand rec room boasting high ceilings and additional recessed lighting. Some of the many updates include the upper-level HVAC and primary bath remodel (2024), air-purifying systems for both HVAC units (2023), hardwood floors (2021), and a 240-volt EV charger in the garage (2019). This exceptional home is conveniently close to Metro, major commuter routes, two town centers, and just a short drive to historic Old Town Alexandria.
