6609 1st NW

This house is a big one. We already had two living rooms, a sitting room off the primary bedroom, and now, the agent wanted a large space off the basement living room staged. It was a massive room, with a bedroom off of it. So it couldn't be a bedroom or a sitting room, and although it is big enough, a conference room or banquet hall didn't make sense. So, we made it a game room. I don't want to lug around a pool table, so a ping-pong table that folds up just made logistical sense.

Mid-Century Modern is my love language. So when the agent said, I have a townhouse in Reston, I went... oh no, not again! When she said, it was an MCM, I said, ok, yes, please! I pulled out all my iconic MC pieces for this one. The canary yellow sofa, the quirky chairs, the dining table that's quintessentially mid-century, all of it. The buyers responded, and it was under contract in less than a week. This was another great listing by Rebecca Weiner of The Rebecca Weiner Group at Compass. 11713 Indian Ridge Rd. Reston, VA 20191 Offered at: $699,000.
