Welcome to a very special offering in Cobblestone, an 11-house enclave of executive custom homes by Van Metre. The elegant brick exterior has been refreshed with a modern entry with sidelites and garage doors with frosted glass. As you walk through the red door, the fun begins with a reimagining of what a center-hall colonial can be. Notice brushed stainless steel banisters and aircraft cables leading upstairs. The living room has a classic wood fireplace, roomy built-ins, crown molding, and a circle of lights above. Traditional formal dining is possible here, too, with crown molding, wall sconces, chair rail, and French doors leading out to the patio. The beating heart of the living space is the expansive renovated kitchen and family room area. Here, please don't keep your hands to yourself. Feel the smooth quartz countertops, the sturdy stone island with Jenn-Air gas cooktop, the sleek European cabinetry with under-mount lighting and phone chargers, the Grohe pull-out faucet over a Blanco double sink, the confident touch of stainless steel of the Cafe refrigerator. Return victorious from a grocery run and restock with ease with the cabinet and pantry organization systems. The bar seating means you'll have company when something good bakes in the oven. In the family room, kick back and flick on the gas fireplace where flames dance on stone. Oops, better check those grilled portabellas on the hardscaped patio edged with leafy greens. Amp up the fun downstairs in the media room with built-in bar area and secret refrigerator. (We stocked it with water bottles to keep you hydrated.) Speaking of, save a trip and do your workout in, in your professional gym. A large bedroom, full bathroom, storage, and utilities finish off this level. On the top floor, sneak a nap in the owner's suite or treat yourself to a soak in the Duravit tub for a spa day. The glass enclosure features a rain shower with seating. The second, third, and fourth bedrooms are well-proportioned and have excellent storage. The second bathroom has floor to ceiling tiles, sliding glass shower doors, dual vanities, and thick stone counter tops. Throughout this home, you will see the evidence of quality materials and workmanship. Two Trane HVAC systems keep you comfortable (2009). The roof was newly rejuvenated with RoofMaxx. New water heater. The location is superb. Air travelers: walk out the front door and arrive at the gate at National airport with Starbucks in hand in 15 minutes. Metro is accessible, and biking is easy with routes into DC. Less than a mile stroll to Del Ray and its shops, dining, coffee, and ice cream. Park two large vehicles in the garage plus three in the driveway. This is a rare, pleasurable opportunity. Looking is one thing - come experience this beautiful home.
