About This Home
As of June 2023Updated colonial with nearly 5000 square feet of finished living space, nestled on over 2 quiet (and incredibly private) acres, surrounded by woods. Neighborhood backs to C&O National Historical Park with 5 private walking trials to the towpath! This meticulously maintained 7 Bed, 4.5 bath home has it all -- bright open space for living, working, and entertaining.
The inviting foyer with warm, traditional oak hardwood floors leading you to the first of two potential home office spaces. A large, airy living room graces the front of the main level and features a wood-burning fireplace and large windows bringing in an abundance of natural light. The living room opens into a dining room with more than enough room for your largest table to seat friends and family for holiday dinners.
The kitchen is a chef's dream-- custom wood cabinetry, a separate pantry, and endless workspace on gorgeous granite countertops. Stainless appliances feature a Miele dishwasher and cooktop. A large, light-filled breakfast area completes the space. The kitchen opens into a family room spanning from the front to the back of the house with loads of space to gather around the second wood-burning stove set in a beautiful floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. Step through the new French patio doors from the family room to enjoy the expansive deck.
On the second level, a luxurious primary suite awaits. Features include a customized walk-in closet, a private sitting area, and a recently updated bath featuring heated floors! There is a second en-suite bedroom plus three additional bedrooms and an updated third full bath with a soaking tub! One of the 5 upper-level bedrooms currently serves as a clothes lover’s dream walk-in closet! Keep it as is, or use it as the 5th bedroom, nursery, or office.
On the lower level, you will find two more light-filled bedrooms with views of the stunning backyard. A large rec room completes the lower level- it’s currently used as a home office but could function as an 8th bedroom. A recently installed wet bar and fridge are sure to make entertaining easy. In addition, your family and guests will appreciate the privacy of a newly renovated full lower-level bath with a walk-in shower.
The outside will delight with a deck spanning the back of the house, a gorgeous paver patio, and a recently installed gazebo with electricity, a ceiling fan, and window system -- a true oasis in your own backyard! What a fun place to gather for drinks and a quiet evening of nature watching—perhaps after a long walk through this peaceful neighborhood (3 miles within the community) or on the towpath.
The current owner has lovingly maintained this property and made too many upgrades to list here! See disclosures for the extended list -- including an updated electrical system and a new two-zone HVAC system (2017). All exterior doors have been updated. There is nothing for you to do except move in and enjoy!
