Located in the Poplar Hill section of the Moyaone Reserve, < https://www.moyaone.org/ > a quiet wooded retreat under 20 miles from the District of Columbia, this stately center hall brick colonial sits on 5.9 private, wooded acres with winter views of the Potomac River and Mount Vernon. This natural light-filled home features many large windows facing green space, high ceilings, and hardwood floors in the living and dining rooms, the office, and all five bedrooms. A large custom cedar deck by Buzzi3 Construction in McLean, VA runs nearly the full length of the rear of the home and overlooks the nearly six acres of private woodland on this serenely quiet property. Access to the deck is available through the dining room, kitchen, and family room. Slate and copper finish dark sky exterior lighting illuminate the deck area. The home has a separate formal dining room and an eat-in kitchen with an island height 6 -8 person dining area. The family room has a fireplace and views of the woodland. This brick and block home was custom built by early Moyaone Reserve property owners using the same handmade bricks used to build the lovely Saint Mary’s College of Maryland. A full bath on the main floor makes the spacious office, which has a small closet, suitable for use as a mother-in-law suite. The laundry room is on the first floor off of the family room. The home is wired for both FIOS and DIRECTV to fulfill telework and entertainment needs. The circular driveway provides easy access and bountiful off street parking. “Dark sky” exterior lighting automatically lights the entrance to the garage and the front walkway upon arrival. The full basement includes a large built in tool bench and work table area. The perimeter of the landscaped yard contains a culinary surprise; a grove of Pawpaw trees which produce fruit prized by locals and foodies alike. https://www.foodandwine.com/lifestyle/pawpaw-fruit-history-facts
