419 GLYNDON STREET NE

Vintage charm, a huge lot, bedrooms galore, superb location. This home has five usable bedrooms, large living-dining area with original hardwood floors, a compact eat-in kitchen and three full bathrooms. There's authentic knotty pine paneling in many rooms, including a huge top level that could be the 5th bedroom or a delightful children's playroom. The home has two wood-burning fireplaces, one of them in an enormous downstairs family room, with a bonus nook large enough for a piano or home office. Book lovers will enjoy the many built-in shelves, while parents will appreciate the lower level mud room with a door to the back yard. The kitchen is dated, but very serviceable, and a huge stainless steel refrigerator will be hard to fill up. There's a screened sun porch off the living room, with direct access to the back yard, and an attached 1-car garage accessible from indoors, and generously sized -- 13' wide and deep enough for any car, plus space for a workbench. Behind it is a gas-fired furnace providing luxurious hot-water heat -- even temperatures and no drafts. Outdoors, a park is just down the street and downtown Vienna is a 10-minute walk. There's also easy access to Tysons along Route 123, or the Vienna Metro station a couple of miles away. It's almost impossible to find a house this large to rent in such a great location, especially at an affordable price. Occupants are in the process of moving out, but it will be painted and professionally cleaned afterward. Also, carpeting in downstairs office/bedroom is being replaced.
