Inside, the home features just-refinished hardwood floors throughout the main and upper levels. The kitchen has been updated with brand-new cabinets and backsplash, along with granite countertops and stainless-steel appliances. Upstairs are two nicely sized bedrooms, both with beautiful hardwood flooring, along with an updated full bathroom. The lower level adds valuable additional space, including a recreation room with an exterior door to steps that lead to the back yard. A large separate utility room includes a washer and dryer, utility sink, and plenty of room for storage. Recent updates also include HVAC in 2022 and a hot water heater in 2023.

There is no shortage of shopping and neighborhood eateries nearby. The charming Hollin Hall Shopping Center offers a number of locally owned restaurants and businesses, including River Bend Bistro & Wine Bar, Via Veneto Italian Restaurant, Hollin Hall Pastry Shop, Nepenthe Gallery, and Hollin Hall Variety Store. Belle View Shopping Center offers a Safeway along with additional shops and services, and nearby The Haven is a popular neighborhood spot for pizza and casual dining. The Richmond Highway corridor provides even more grocery and shopping options, including Walmart, Aldi, Giant, and Costco, while Wegmans is just a little farther north. There are plenty of options for enjoying the outdoors nearby as well, including Huntley Meadows Park, River Farm, and the parks and trails along the Potomac River. The area is also rich in history, with George Washington's Mount Vernon and historic Woodlawn among the notable sites just a short drive from home. With its fresh updates, flexible living space, private back yard, and convenient location, 6817 Radcliffe Drive offers something increasingly hard to find this close to Washington: a home of your own with room both inside and out, without an association fee.
