8404 Chillum Court, Springfield, VA 22153 US Washington Home

     You will love this traditional 5 bedroom Center Hall Colonial perfectly sited on a pretty, wooded, cul-de-sac lot in the conveniently located subdivision of Terre Grande. It is well maintained and beautifully updated – a perfect place to enjoy from the moment you move in!  This popular floor plan has room to spread out with 5 bedrooms upstairs, formal areas, lovely casual living spaces, wonderfully redone kitchen and a partially finished basement.  From the leaded glass front door to the birds and wildlife in the wooded back yard, this is a place you will be proud to call home.  And, with approximately 3000 square feet of    comfortable and updated living space, you can settle right in for years to come.

• Spacious Foyer area with ceramic tile floor (12 inch tiles).
• Replacement front door with leaded glass window.
• Formal Living Room with crown molding and neutral Berber carpet.
• Formal Dining Room with crown molding, chair railing and Berber carpet.
• Beautifully renovated Kitchen is the focal point of the comfortable gathering space on the main level.  Corian countertops with integral sink, Center Island, upgraded Maytag stainless appliances and large ceramic tiles on the floor make this a lovely work space.  The French door refrigerator with bottom freezer, double ovens, electric glass top stove, built in microwave and dishwasher are all only 3 years old and in great  condition. There is plenty of space for a table, too!
• The adjoining Family Room is a generous space but cozy at the same time.  The hardwood floors are easy to maintain and the custom built in bookcases that flank the raised hearth fireplace provide great storage as well as nice display cabinets.  The TV area above the fireplace has been cleverly designed to conceal audio/visual and electrical power cords.  The Avalon wood burning stove can practically heat the whole house in a pinch, according to the sellers!
• The door to the Deck has been recently replaced.  You won’t need window treatments here; there are mini blinds between the panes of glass and offer a custom look.
• Main level Laundry Room and Powder Room are tucked privately away behind the Kitchen.  The Powder Room has been updated to include a pedestal sink and ceramic floor.
• Upstairs includes 5 ample sized Bedrooms – or, 4 bedrooms and a Sitting Room.  The Hall Bath has been recently updated to include fresh paint, new double bowl vanity top, new faucets, new lighting and mirrors.  It is an ideal arrangement for multiple users to share, with the water closet separated from the vanity area.
• The large Master Bedroom offers generous spaces for all your furniture.  It includes a ceiling fan, large walk in closet, updated vanity, lighting and mirrors.  The adjoining Bath has been recently updated, as well, with newer counter tops, commode, lighting, faucet, and hardware.
• The partially finished Lower Level Recreation Room is a great place to escape!   It offers even more room to spread out so that everyone in the family can have their own space!  The unfinished portion of the basement is wonderful for storage, workshop, etc, and contains the mechanical equipment, water heater and radon remediation system. 
• Inviting back yard is wooded and landscaped.  The trees provide a lush green privacy screen for most of the year.  The large deck is a great place to entertain guests or to just relax in solitude and listen to nature at your backdoor.
• Easy maintenance – brick and vinyl siding exterior

     This home has been a labor of love for the current owners as they have systematically replaced or redone lighting fixtures, faucets, bathroom accessory hardware, some plumbing components, flooring, and appliances.  It’s ready for you to place your personal touches and make it your own!

      The location of the Terra Grande neighborhood and this home in particular is fantastic for anyone who must commute to just about anywhere in Northern Virginia — 5 minutes to I-95, 10 minutes to Ft. Belvoir, 5 minutes to the Fairfax County Parkway.   The cul-de-sac location makes it an ideal place to get away from the chaos of the city life!
