About This Home

As of April 2022

This spectacular Tudor, nestled in the bucolic Colonial Heights neighborhood, is a home of unparalleled beauty and charm, with a setting to match. Renovated from head to toe by its current owners just years ago, this 5 bedrooms and 4.5 bath home and the 17,000+ square foot lot means that you *can* have it all - a pool, yard, and entertaining patio in an idyllic setting, just blocks from the Lowell School and in bounds for Shepherd Elem, Deal Middle and Wilson High.

Just across from a woodsy Rock Creek Park tributary, enter through the front to find a formal dining room and large contemporary kitchen with breakfast bar, Sub-Zero refrigerator, 48" range, and enough counter space and Porcelanosa cabinetry to suit all of your entertaining and storage needs. The main floor boasts two living spaces, a gas fireplace, an additional breakfast area, and a powder room and can be accessed from the two-car attached garage in the back. There’s even an EV charging port outside!

Upstairs, find the primary en-suite bedroom, complete with a primary bath that’s a pièce de résistance - relax in your free-standing tub and soak in the southern light and backyard views through the large picture window. You will also find 4 more generous bedrooms, all with expansive closets and custom organizers, as well as three full baths.

Go up one more floor to the large bonus room - tons of space for another bedroom, den, office, or whatever your heart desires, plus even more storage. Downstairs, find the perfect movie room and recreation area, a 4th renovated full bath, wine refrigerator, and a meticulously laid out laundry room with walk-out steps to the backyard.

This is the one you've been fantasizing about - the perfect setting, an immaculately renovated home, and all the fun of your own private pool, just in time for summer. Your friends will be beating a path to your front door! What more could you want? Come, enjoy and rest easy - you're home! **See 3Dtour**
