127 Academy Ln, Winchester, VA 22601

This house is pure charm with a long list of attributes, and located in Academy Heights makes it walking distance from Old Town. Originally built in 1950, the home was beautifully renovated a few years ago. The façade is a handsome combination of brick, stone, and siding, and is augmented by tasteful landscaping. Inside is the picture of fresh, light, and airy with fetching details like built-ins, archways, and trim. Pleasing paint colors and hardwood floors add to the ambience. The main level begins with the living room, where furniture can be perfectly situated before the gas fireplace. Segue into the dining area, which is adjacent to the kitchen on one side but also leads to an inviting family room with a higher ceiling and bank of windows. The galley style kitchen is resplendent with white cabinetry, sleek black counters, stainless appliances, and ceramic tile flooring. There’s tons of storage and prep space, and on the other end, a full bar style set-up, including an undercabinet wine refrigerator. The laundry facilities are also tucked into this space with a matching counter for folding, and dedicated cabinet space. The main level primary suite is a rarity for downtown homes and comes with an attached full bath and separate dressing room. Another bedroom (or use an office or craft room) and full bath are also on this floor. Two additional bedrooms command the upstairs. The backyard is a delight with a lovely paver patio, firepit area, and tidy lawn, the fencing and hedge creating a private outdoor oasis. A one-car detached garage plus additional dedicated parking also come with the property. With significant upgrades inside and out, a desirable location, and the option for one-level living, this home is a must see.
