About this home
OPEN THIS SUN 2p - 4p!
Steeped in Arlington history, Military Road traces its origins to the Civil War era, when it served as a vital route connecting the chain of forts that defended Washington, D.C. Today, this storied corridor is home to some of Arlington's most distinguished residences, and 3824 Military Road is among its finest. Set far back from the road atop a gentle rise and enveloped by nearly two-thirds of an acre, this exceptional Gruver Cooley custom home enjoys a rare sense of privacy and tranquility. The elevated setting, mature landscaping, and substantial setback create a secluded estate-like retreat just moments from the George Washington Memorial Parkway and the conveniences of Washington, D.C.
A center hall foyer introduces interiors defined by impeccable craftsmanship. Formal living and dining rooms flank the gracious entry, while a series of interconnected gathering spaces unfold beyond, creating an ideal setting for both grand-scale entertaining and comfortable everyday living. The living room transitions into an inviting sunroom anchored by its own fireplace and opening to a covered porch.
A spectacular family room captivates you with soaring floor-to-ceiling windows, a dramatic stone fireplace, and sweeping views of the lush grounds. French doors open directly to the flagstone terrace and expansive backyard, creating a natural extension of the home's entertaining spaces. The home's design is remarkably intuitive, with each room flowing effortlessly into the next while maintaining warmth, intimacy, and purpose.
The kitchen is a true showpiece—drenched in natural light and thoughtfully positioned to capture beautiful views of the landscaped rear yard from nearly every angle. Anchored by a generous center island, the space combines beauty and functionality with premium appliances, including a Sub-Zero refrigerator (2024) and Thermador cooktop (2023) The adjoining breakfast area and family room create a welcoming hub for daily life or hosting family and friends. Throughout the home, exceptional attention to detail is evident in the custom millwork, tailored built-ins, refined finishes, and carefully curated architectural elements that speak to Gruver Cooley's reputation for enduring quality.
Additional main-level highlights include a private office with custom cabinetry, a spacious laundry room, an ensuite guest bedroom ideal for visitors or multigenerational living, and dual staircases that enhance both convenience and circulation. Every detail has been thoughtfully considered to balance beauty, comfort, and functionality.
The grounds are equally impressive. Mature plantings and thoughtful landscaping create a private outdoor sanctuary centered around an expansive flagstone patio, elegant stone sitting walls, and beautifully integrated terracing. The upper lawn offers exceptional flexibility, with ample room for a future pool, recreation area, or additional outdoor living spaces. Together, the home's architecture and landscape design create a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living rarely found in such a close-in location.
Upstairs, five additional bedrooms provide generous accommodations, including a spacious primary suite with dual walk-in closets and a luxurious ensuite bath that overlooks the serene backyard. Two secondary bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath, while two additional bedrooms are served by a hall bath. The lower level offers abundant flexibility with recreation and media spaces, room for play and hobbies, and extensive unfinished storage.
Completing the property is the exceptional location within the highly sought-after Yorktown, Williamsburg, and Jamestown school pyramid. Moments from Gulf Branch Nature Center, scenic Potomac River trails, and Washington Golf and Country Club, 3824 Military Road offers a rare opportunity to enjoy estate-like privacy, timeless architecture, and unparalleled convenience in one of Arlington's most coveted neighborhoods....
