About this home
Where LOCATION is the ultimate luxury— this home is in the Dogwoods, a highly sought neighborhood that is one stoplight to the D.C. line, with unrivaled access to McLean, Tysons, Bethesda, the GW Parkway, Reagan Airport and more!
Perched proudly on a terraced hill, this commanding residence stands apart with the presence and grace of a distinguished estate. While the homes in the neighborhood were built in the same era, this one feels like the original—its elevated setting, expanded layout, and architectural character make it truly incomparable.
The main level is both expansive and elegant, beginning with a grand living room anchored by a stone fireplace flanked by built-in bookcases. The formal dining room makes a statement with its own fireplace and built-in shelving—ideal for hosting memorable evenings. A stunning family room with cathedral ceilings and a third fireplace offers warmth and volume, all while connecting beautifully to the tranquil outdoor space. All main-level living spaces—each with their own French doors—open to the stunning rear courtyard, creating an effortless indoor-outdoor flow. Additional main-level highlights include a charming breakfast room, a dedicated laundry room, two powder rooms and garage access.
The kitchen is positioned to take in backyard views and offers both function and charm, with an adjoining breakfast room that feels delightfully tucked away. Upstairs, you’ll find four spacious bedrooms. The primary suite is generous in size with walls of windows, a sitting area and ample closets. The primary bathroom features an oversized tub, walk-in shower, and space that provides endless potential for a fresh, modern redesign. The upper level is fully carpeted with hardwood floors underneath.
The partially-finished lower level combines character with function, showcasing rich knotty wood paneling, custom built-in shelving with a dedicated work station, and a flexible bonus room ideal for a private gym or studio. The utility/storage room is generous in size with a bilco door offering discreet exterior access, enhancing convenience for both storage and entry.
Step through any of the French doors to discover a private flagstone courtyard surrounded by lush landscaping and anchored by a gracefully shaped swimming pool. With grace of a Cotswold retreat, the courtyard/pool sanctuary evokes a hidden treasure - tailor made for both quiet moments and lively hosting.
Perfect for those who value both sophistication and convenience. A location and home where there is nothing that compares.
