**Offers Due Monday, May 5 at 6pm** Lyon Village Cottage, designed by Deborah Blair, is a stunning five-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bathroom home that has been thoughtfully customized from top to bottom. A charming white picket fence and professionally landscaped garden create a welcoming first impression. Enter through the sunroom, featuring a custom-painted cement floor, Stark Rustic sisal cut to fit, and solid brass dog hooks for leashes. Throughout the home, Farrow & Ball paints complement custom color-finished hardwood floors, handmade solid brass and crystal doorknobs, and an overall attention to artisanal detail. >> The open-concept main level boasts a cozy living room centered around the fireplace, and a dining room with matching hand-blocked Galbraith & Paul linen Chinoiserie-style light fixtures by Urban Electric. Windows are dressed in custom Belgian linen-cotton blend treatments with Brimar Border trim. The space is anchored by handmade wool rugs and a stair runner by Elizabeth Eakins/Holland & Sherry. A spacious kitchen includes stainless steel appliances and a UK-style handmade antiqued freestanding pantry. This level also includes a powder room and laundry room for convenience. >> Upstairs, the three bedrooms are each appointed with Stark wool carpeting cut to fit, custom window treatments by Carleton V and Elizabeth Eakins, and elegant ceiling fixtures by Colleen & Co. A large Visual Comfort fixture graces the hall, while the bathroom features a custom-sized and color-matched light fixture by Hwang Bishop. >> The expansive lower level, with its own private entrance, includes a full kitchen and bathroom. It is finished with Sanderson and Cowtan & Tout wallpaper and Stark wool rug cut to fit. >> A serene retreat awaits in the carriage house above the garage. This charming space includes a morning kitchen, full bathroom, Skyler Samperton wallpaper, Cowtan & Tout window treatments, and Stark carpeting. >> The oversized garage is equipped with a Tesla EV charger and features an arbor draped in wisteria. The backyard offers a beautiful slate patio, grassy lawn, mature plantings, and an irrigation system. While this home may make you never want to leave, you’re just two blocks from the vibrant shopping, dining, and Metro access in Clarendon.
