Available immediately! Ideally seeking 6-month lease with option to extend, but negotiable. Don't miss this absolutely charming and recently updated duplex in one of Arlington's most convenient neighborhoods, which can be rented fully furnished, partially furnished or unfurnished - to suit your needs. This beautifully restored historic WW2-era home is built on the highest point in Arlington county, which was a Civil War artillery battery emplacement (Fort Barnard). Backing up to green space, the special property provides privacy and feels like a treehouse with its partially fenced, well landscaped and shaded yard. The lovingly updated 2 bed / 2 full bath home has been completely renovated with an eat-in kitchen and modern bathrooms. With original hardwoods throughout the main living areas, and in-floor electric heat in all tiled floor spaces, this home is full of character and high-quality details. All rooms have new, dedicated mini-split HVAC systems providing both air conditioning and a secondary heat source for maximum comfort. Primary heat is from restored vintage radiators and supplied by gas at a significantly reduced expense. The new water heater is on-demand, meaning unlimited hot water for showers. Also features all new appliances, new roof and new HVAC within the last 2-3 years. Moreover, it comes furnished with tasteful decor including 2 queen beds, dressers, desk, living room couch, tv, side tables and bookshelves, and if desired, is well-appointed with other necessities: towels, glass and dinnerware, cookware, coffee maker and more! The backyard boasts a private patio with a grill and a mix of mature trees and new landscaping. Regular lawncare and yard maintenance included in monthly rental price so you don't have to lift a finger! Just unpack your bags and enjoy! Nearby Fort Barnard park has a new playground and ball fields. The neighborhood is walkable, blocks to the 84 bus stop (commuter connector to blue line at Pentagon City), and nearby Shirlington Village has wonderful restaurants, a library, and movie theater. W&OD trail is within walking distance, providing bike connections and a wonderful running trail by Four Mile Run. This home is truly a haven all within a 10 minute drive of downtown DC!
