Welcome to this majestic, sun drenched 5-bedroom, 8-bathroom colonial manor privately nestled on nearly 2 beautifully rolling acres overlooking deep woods and meandering fields. This 8000 square foot beauty is one of Renaissance’s flagship models known as the Grand Monet, and is the absolute pinnacle of timeless design, eternally popular for its perfect blend of awe-inspiring beauty and functionality. There is something for everyone to love here…. For owners who enjoy an upscale soiree, they can take pride in guests visiting the formal living room filled with natural-light and garden views, located just off the dramatic, vaulted ceiling foyer then enjoying dinner in the expansive formal dining room, featuring a butler's pantry to store your fine dining ware and serving pieces. All three areas offer gorgeous, gleaming upgraded hardwood cherry flooring.If you favor more casual entertaining, the expansive kitchen with custom cherry cabinets combined with the spectacular two-story family room and its breathtaking backyard views will be a gathering long remembered by your guests. For more intimate occasions with your closest friends and family, you might plan to host an ultra-relaxing barbecue, lounging on the custom Trex deck and unwinding to the sights and sounds of nature and of course those stunning woods and fields vistas - so picturesque, it feel like a painting that’s come to life. And regardless of which type of entertaining or relaxation you enjoy, it’s sure to be enhanced by enjoying a good bottle of wine, which you can select from the amazing climate-controlled wine room addition, conveniently located just a step from the kitchen and capable of holding an impressive 1500 bottles – a wine connoisseur’s dream. This ultra-luxury feature must be seen to be truly appreciated. For those who work from home, the main level also features a spacious office/library with custom built-in shelving. This room also offers stress reducing views out the Back. And for your weekend family enjoyment, there is the splendid lower level, which though technically a basement, doesn't feel like one at all – with full windows all along the entire back, this space allows maximum light to stream in and really feels more like a main level space. The recreation room is both spacious and cozy, perfect for movies and gaming. Adjacent to this is the pool hall and sitting just between is the kitchenette with bar seating, convenient for quick access to drinks and snacks. Beyond this space lies the large, private guest quarters – which makes for an excellent au pair / in-law / teen suite with a full bath. On the other side is the home gym, great for those morning workouts – this space could also be used as a second home office or re-imagined as a 6th bedroom. This level also features a walk out to the patio area and a half bath allowing the full bath to be dedicated to visitors staying in the guest suite. When it’s time to finally turn in for the night, head to the upper level, which is highlighted by 5 bright, spacious bedrooms, all with en-suite baths, including the primary bedroom, which offers a dramatic coffered ceiling, a huge luxury bath, loads of walk-in closet space and a private sitting area / work out nook. Other notables of this majestic home: cavernous 3-car side load garage, curved paver walkway and 3 sides brick. Mention must be made of Timberlake, which is one of Oakton’s most exclusive neighborhoods – a splendid community of upscale estates and home to wide streets lined with mature trees and expansive community property, plus two private lakes. All this within the secluded gem of Oakton, famous and sought after for its calming, wooded setting that feels so remote but offers awesome amenities and access to major roads just a few minutes away. To complete the package, this zip code offers excellent schools, including easy access to a variety of private schools, including Flint Hill. Enjoy your visit!
