6500 Hillview Avenue might be everything you’ve looking for in a home: A lovingly maintained single-level rambler that’s turnkey and move-in ready, copious amounts of natural light that stream through the windows and skylights, an open floorplan, designer-level/modern finishes, ¾-inch solid hardwood throughout, a shaded and leafy corner lot, incredible outdoor living spaces, a fenced in backyard, and two detached, stick-built garage structures with electricity.

It's also close to everything, with a 10-minute drive to Old Town Alexandria, about a 30 to 35-minute commute to the Pentagon and downtown’s L’Enfant Metro Stations respectively (including driving to and parking at Huntington Metro), a five-minute drive to shopping and dining, less than five minutes to the serenity of Huntly Meadows Park and walking distance to Fairfax County’s Franconia Rec Center and sports complex.

When it’s time to disconnect and unwind, step into a home that was curated to evoke feelings of relaxation and tranquility, while carefully working in statements of personality and color into each space.

The large kitchen was renovated in 2022 and features professionally refinished solid maple cabinets, a timeless tile backsplash, new Samsung appliances (gas smart range and dishwasher in 2022 and a refrigerator in 2024), externally venting range hood, and custom accent wall underneath the bar.

All the interior walls, doors, and trim were repainted in 2022. The neutral, but impactful palette makes those previously mentioned injections of color and personality shine throughout.

The main bedroom – which is large enough to comfortably accommodate a king-sized bed and a full bedroom set – features another custom, dimensional accent wall that adds depth and interest to the space, a large closet, a west-facing window that lets in tons of sunshine and a sizable ensuite bathroom that has its own room-width closet for ample storage.

The guest bedrooms are nicely sized as well. One comfortably accommodates a king-sized bed and a nook for a desk, while the other is set up as a home office for full-time remote work.

You’ll love the recently replaced (2024), massive 300+ square feet of decking at the back of the house. It’s great for al fresco dining and entertaining friends and family. You’ll also fawn over the large, covered front porch; it’s a sheltered retreat to lounge with a glass of wine while enjoying spring, summer, autumn, and (occasional) winter days. For hotter afternoons, an outdoor ceiling fan was installed to help keep you cool and comfortable.

Speaking of ceiling fans, every bedroom has one that’s remote-controlled (installed in 2023)! Additionally, most rooms in the home feature new and upgraded lighting, including many that come from high-end retailers West Elm, Crate & Barrel, and CB2. The home’s exterior lights have been replaced as well.

6500 Hillview also features new interior and exterior door hardware (2024), new Moen bath fixtures (2024), a rebuilt chimney chase (2023), new front door (2023), smart locks (2023) that convey, full HVAC system inspection and UV light installation to reduce germs and allergens (2022), newer garbage disposal (2022), and newer roof (2019).

We hope you’ll have the opportunity to come by and see this incredible home for yourself. It’s a place to enjoy and make your own lifelong memories, just as the current owners have.
