Additional storage and a secondary staircase to the upper level enhance functionality. The primary suite is a sanctuary, featuring an upper-level loft retreat/great room, spa-inspired bath with heated floors, and a boutique-style dressing room. Throughout the home, custom window treatments add both beauty and function, including bedroom blackout shades. Five additional en-suite bedrooms are complemented by three well placed half-baths, ensure comfort and convenience for family and guests. The lower level is an entertainer’s dream with a spacious den, wellness studio, recreation lounge with full wet bar, and a flexible space ideal for a media room or golf simulator. A large finished storage area provides abundant space for organization. Two laundry rooms, one upstairs and one on the main level, offer everyday convenience. Curb appeal is enhanced by extensive professional landscaping, RainBird irrigation, and custom landscape lighting. Everyday living is elevated by thoughtful details including an electric car charging outlet in the garage, built-in speakers, and whole-home technology features. The residence is also elevator-ready, with oversized elevator closets serving all three levels. Ideally located, this home offers easy access to downtown McLean, Tysons Corner, and Washington, D.C., while preserving a sense of privacy and retreat. Premier shopping and fine dining are just minutes away.
