About This Home
As of January 2025Located in the heart of sought-after Franklin Park, just over the Arlington line with access to exceptional
Fairfax schools, sits this gorgeous wooded half acre property enhanced by magnificent gardens and
mature landscaping. Designed by award-winning architect Robert Mobley, this absolutely stunning
modern interpretation of a classic four-square farmhouse offers its family exceptionally beautiful and
comfortable spaces. It was scrupulously constructed with materials that endure (like Marvin
windows/doors, Hardie cement siding and a standing-seam metal roof) and has been meticulously
maintained. You are welcomed by a spacious wrap-around, covered mahogany porch that previews the
sense of calm, warmth, and charm to be found inside. From the central foyer are gracious living and
dining rooms with arched entries, the start of the double-landing central staircase, and the entry to the
spacious open kitchen/dining and family rooms. Cooking will always be a joy with the ultra-luxe
Thermador fridge, six-burner Wolf stove/oven with pot-filler faucet, separate under-counter ice maker,
two sinks, and well-placed Decora cabinetry. The FR is highlighted by a natural stone wood-burning
fireplace and a recessed wall unit housing a 55” TV with Klipsch audio enhancements. Triple French
doors provide both glorious vistas and access to a huge (just refinished) Ipe mahogany deck
overlooking the beautiful private rear yard; what a great gathering place! Also on the main level are
two offices, one with its own entry from the front porch and one with shelving doubling as pantry
space, and a powder room. Level two has two corner bedrooms with ensuite baths, a corner primary
BR with a balcony, two walk-in closets and two luxurious marble bath areas (one an exercise room with
extravagant Kohler Infinity tub), and a laundry room with new top-tier GE appliances. Level three has
two huge (13.5’ x 25.5’) bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a cozy reading nook. The walk-out lower level
is truly exceptional: a full apartment (with a separate outside entrance) with a full kitchen, dining and
living areas, a bedroom, and full bath; a wood-paneled club room with a full bar with a sink and
wine/beverage fridge accented with a handsome stone wall; a Kohler powder room; a just-painted
laundry room with an oversized pet-washing sink; a three-section 608 sqft. conditioned storage area
with new floor coating. One section houses the equipment for the NuVo “Concerto” whole house audio
and Panasonic business telephone systems and the control centers for the rarely found but highly-
coveted heating systems. Encased in cement below each floor are copper water lines connected to a 9-
zone hydronic hot water radiant heating system powered by a Weil McLain “Ultra” aluminum heat
exchange gas boiler; this system provides gentle, comfortable, and efficient warming without noise or
dust/allergens. Hot water is provided throughout by two high-efficiency Rinnai tankless heaters with
recirculating lines/pumps. Even the air cooling in this home is rare, special, and coveted: two high-
efficiency Unico high-velocity, multi-zone heat pump systems. From the lower-level foyer door is a
covered breezeway to the 619 sqft. detached garage, which was just fully finished including an epoxy
slip-free floor coating. Besides the 2 oversized parking spaces is a separate area, great for cycles, yard
equipment, or a workshop, with its own overhead door; the garage has its own radiant floor heating
system and plumbing rough-in for a future bath. For extra protection and peace-of-mind, this home
was pre-wired with a ProTran switch block via an outside connection for a portable generator (deluxe
Yamaha unit conveys) to power selected circuits, and a new sophisticated Vector security system was
just installed. This home is ready for immediate move-in; everything you see will convey. Come
see why serenity, space, privacy, comfort and beauty are the hallmarks of this truly remarkable home.
