1170 Bandy Run Rd

open house is Cancelled- offer accepted. Rare privacy is yours in this tranquil home tucked away in a natural setting bordering extensive county parkland. This bucolic backyard retreat is almost a full (.86) acre, and that’s only the beginning. The property accesses Sugarland Creek Trail by way of a woodland path that would inspire Christopher Robin and Beatrice Potter. The Trail, laced with playgrounds and basketball courts, runs for miles and connects with the W&OD Trail. Step out the back door of this tranquil home and the natural world surrounds you. Inside, windows aplenty, multiple skylights, and blonde hardwood floors make this home joyful and light-filled. The open floor plan, with a spacious and handsome kitchen on one end, a cozy den with a brick-framed gas logs fireplace in the center, and a sunny observatory on the far end with a bay window, make living here fun and easy. Upstairs are four bedrooms–all freshly painted with Behr’s “Blank Canvas” making them ready for your personal touches. The lower level is a sunny walk-out dream. A sliding glass door opens to a lower patio and the tranquility of a private parkland. The windows are framed with natural oak that compliments the floors. The downstairs offers opportunities for work or play–ideal for an office, a guest suite, a rec room, photo studio…or a combination of all of the above. Storage space is abundant in the lower level and in the large backyard shed that incorporates a covered outdoor workspace. The deer-fenced garden is ready for flowers or vegetables; the soil is fantastic. Fifteen minutes to Dulles Airport, about the same to the downtown Reston, Herndon, and the Village of Great Falls. What a fabulous location–and, the cherry on top is that neighborhood kids go to Langley High School and the family pup stays in a canine paradise bordered by an Invisible Fence.
