Description
Offer deadline 5 pm on Monday, June 19. Nestled in the heart of Arlington on a lovely wide street, this remarkable 5-bedroom/5.5-bathroom property offers an unparalleled combination of luxury, distinctive taste, and timeless elegance. No detail was overlooked in this Arts & Crafts-style home, with every design choice sourced by the highest quality artisans and makers. This home unfolds like an architectural showcase, while remaining a highly livable oasis.
The bright and inviting open floor plan seamlessly blends modern design with warm, refined accents like the custom mahogany front door (with handmade stained glass!) and garage door, stone accents and rich color choices. The spacious living area, including an irresistible main floor library with built-in bookshelves, features large windows - all the home's windows are Pella and replaced in 2020 - allowing abundant natural light to complement the hardwood floors and natural wood throughout. The lighting choices - all in Arts & Craft style - complete the intentional, distinctive ambiance throughout the entire home.
The chef's kitchen, redone in 2020, is a true masterpiece, boasting top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances: 36-inch Wolf gas range, dual Wolf wall ovens, Sub-Zero refrigerator, Cove dishwasher and Sub-Zero under counter beverage center. The backsplash is its own showcase, featuring hand-painted Motawi decorative tile designed by celebrated mid-century style wildlife artist Charley Harper. The absolute black granite countertops set off the sleek custom cherry cabinets, with a large island for additional cooking space and ample storage space. The butler’s pantry can be used as a dedicated beverage station, complete with a wine fridge.
The main level includes a spacious yet cozy great room with a gas fireplace set off by a gorgeous Motawi custom tile surround and mahogany wood mantle. The back doors lead out to a perfect screened in porch featuring coveted and durable Brazilian Ipe wood flooring. The yard - professionally done by celebrated Arlington landscape designers Concepts and Contours and featured as part of the Annual Tuckahoe Home and Garden Tour in 2013, is a true gem. Created with intention and incredible attention to detail, the beautifully and lushly landscaped yard has an expansive stone patio and an outdoor kitchen surrounded by stone. There is no rivaling the mature, well-tended landscaping - this yard has been loved and nurtured for many years, and it shows. The front yard - just as stunning as the back - has a custom mahogany trellis and Arts & Craft style door leading to the backyard.
The upper level of the home, with a wide staircase, features a primary suite with two walk-in closets with custom organization and storage, and a luxurious ensuite bathroom with a tiled shower, soaking tub, and cherry cabinets. Three additional bedrooms upstairs, each with its own ensuite full bathroom, provide ample space for family, guests or office space.
A fifth bedroom in the spacious basement has been converted to a wine connoisseur’s dream, with a full-size wine refrigerator, second stainless steel full-size refrigerator, built-in cabinetry and wine storage, with an ensuite full bathroom. The rest of the basement, with easy access to the backyard, is perfect for an office, playroom or media room. The two-car garage completes this endlessly usable lower level space.
New heat pumps, water heater and a whole house humidifier were installed in 2018. There is a sump pump and back-up battery. The convenient upstairs laundry has an LG washer and dryer that are approx 5 years old.
Located in North Arlington's highly sought after Lacey Forest - with sprawling Lacey Woods park mere blocks away, this home has access to the best of Arlington: both Ballston and East Falls Church Metro stations, 66, the Custis Trail, proximity to VHC and many beloved local restaurants. McKinley Elementary, Swanson Middle and Washington-Liberty High School district.
