TOTAL ASSESSED VALUE IS $2,775,930. OPEN SAT 4/19 2p-4p. This timeless 1912 white clapboard home is nestled on 1.14 acres (now subdivided into two separate buildable lots) in the sought-after Franklin Park area. The home, surrounded by lush landscaping and mature trees, exudes historic charm, elegance, and warmth. In the back yard, on a hill overlooking a stream, is a four-level guest cottage, providing a rare opportunity for extended family accommodations, a private home office, or rental income. As you enter the gracious foyer of the main house, you are immediately transported to a home that feels rich with history and character, filled with modern touches that make it both functional and stylish. The primary living room is anchored by a wood-burning fireplace and accented by large windows that flood the space with natural light while offering stunning views. The formal dining room provides a perfect setting for memorable dinners with family and friends. Adjacent to the dining room is a spacious sunroom with comfortable seating, large windows, skylights, and a glass door opening onto a spectacular deck with breathtaking views of the expansive grounds. This sunroom, with adjacent to a full bathroom, can also be used as a first-floor bedroom. The light-filled kitchen features skylights, a beamed ceiling, ample counter space, a dining area, and a cozy seating area with a wood-burning stove. Just off the kitchen, the mudroom provides excellent additional storage for groceries, appliances, and coats. Upstairs, the primary en suite bedroom features serene views of the lush grounds below. This spacious room is designed with comfort in mind, creating a peaceful sanctuary where you can relax and recharge. Four additional bedrooms on the upper level provide ample space for family, guests, or a home office, and they share a well-designed hall bathroom with timeless finishes. The lower level of the home expands the living space significantly, adding a walk-out family room with a wood-burning fireplace and many windows, an exercise/game room, a guest bedroom, and a full bathroom. The four-level guest house features its own kitchen, breakfast area, living room, bedroom, and full bathroom. With views of the lower yard and stream, it offers both privacy and tranquil comfort for guests or residents alike. This sought-after location combines the peace of a secluded retreat with easy access to urban amenities—only a short drive to both Washington, D. C. and Tysons Corner. The Chesterbrook Shopping Center is just a short stroll away, offering Starbucks, Safeway, Sorn Thai, South Block, and more. The additional buildable lot offers options as a separate investment or future additional home. Whether you’re looking for a home to raise a family, host unforgettable gatherings, or simply enjoy the serenity of nature from your own backyard, this one-of-a-kind residence provides the perfect setting.
