Welcome home to this stately colonial tucked into the natural beauty of Ft. Williams Park, yet close to every convenience. Nestled on a quiet, cherry blossom lined cul-de-sac with a generous backyard, this beautiful property offers unique privacy and open space mere minutes away from schools, parks, shopping, Old Town, and DC. Read on for all of the details of this gorgeous home.

Built in 2009 with over $130,000 in recent upgrades made by the current owner, your new home features 6 bedrooms (3 en-suite) and 4.5 bathrooms on 4 floors. Layout provides plenty of secluded work/play space during the week, while the open floor plan and outdoor space are perfect for entertaining. As you enter the home, you'll be awed by the 10 ft ceilings, wainscoting, 12 inch crown molding and 5 inch hardwood floors throughout. On the main level, the formal living and dining rooms feature large bay windows with plantation shutters that lead to the open floor plan kitchen, breakfast nook and family room. The gourmet kitchen delights with a large center island, gas range, pantry, bar seating, beautiful solid wood cabinets, quartz counter tops and quartz backsplash.

*Leave the cares of the day behind and step out to the amazing outdoor living space with a newly built 600 sq ft Trex deck specially braced for a hot tub, ample sitting and eating areas and a natural gas grill hookup. The spacious fenced in yard has plenty of room to kick the ball as well as a play area and fire pit.

As you walk back into the light-filled family room you will be greeted by a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace surrounded by built-in bookcases. On the 2nd floor, high ceilings and crown molding carry into the expansive primary bedroom featuring a large picture window, a fireplace and separate sitting area, dual walk-in closets, and a spacious primary bathroom with a jacuzzi soaking tub and a large walk-in shower. The 2nd floor also features built-in-bookcases lining the hallways, 3 more bedrooms and two bathrooms, as well as the bedroom-level laundry room with an LG smart washer and dryer.

On the 3rd floor, you'll find an additional bedroom with a large walk-in closet which is plumbed for an optional 5th full bath - a perfect guest suite or office. The walk-out lower-level features a 3rd fireplace, a wine closet, an expansive wet bar with a wine fridge and an ice maker, and a large recreation room with more built-in bookcases. You'll also find an additional full bathroom and a 6th bedroom with large closets that's perfect for a home gym.
