Property Description
The main living area features a modern chef's kitchen with an induction cooktop, two dishwashers, a beverage fridge, a serving bar, and a walk-in catering pantry. The kitchen and open dining area comfortably seat up to 17, while the entire main level, including the screened porch, can host 25+ guests, perfect for seamless entertaining. A natural wood-burning fireplace with a full-length raised hearth anchors the living space, adding warmth and character. Bifolding glass doors open onto the screened porch, creating effortless indoor-outdoor flow for larger gatherings. The expansive main level primary suite includes a large sitting room, a home office area, and a spacious bathroom. The suite also offers ample closet space for storage and organization. A separate den with vaulted ceiling and tons of natural light makes a welcoming home office, study or even a guest room, with easy access to the full bath.
An extension of the home's living space, the four-season porch has direct access to the back deck and yard. It features vaulted ceilings, skylights, seasonal plastic inserts, dining space for 12, a lounge area for 6, ceiling fans, and cedar-paneled walls that create a cozy, cabin-like atmosphere.
The upper level offers a unique and flexible layout, with vaulted ceilings and large windows that evoke a “treehouse-like” feel. Two bedrooms can be used separately with a sitting room positioned in-between them, or a hallway door can close off the space to offer the privacy of a two-bedroom, one-bath suite. The sitting room comfortably fits a U-shaped desk for work-from-home setups. The third upper-level bedroom and a full hall bath complete the space.
The exterior is both tranquil and low-maintenance with a private backyard surrounded by mature trees, two grilling areas, a fire pit, and seating for 12+ guests. Notable features include wood flooring throughout (marble entry and marble den); dimmable recessed lights and illuminated glass cabinets, clever storage solutions with pull-out, under-stair compartments and hall bath built-ins, outdoor storage: utility closet, garden shed, and bike hooks. The covered carport and fieldstone breezeway provide access with skylights to the front door. Located in the McLean High School pyramid, with public water/sewer, and just minutes from downtown McLean, Arlington, and DC, this home offers the perfect blend of serenity and convenience.
