Description

Most houses make you choose between one that is already taken care of and one that feels a world away from everything, and this one does not ask you to choose. The roof and skylights are from 2025, the entire HVAC system inside and out from 2023, and the tankless water heater, electrical panel and basement remodel from 2021, so the next few years can go to living here instead of fixing things. Mornings start in a kitchen with white shaker cabinets, granite counters and a center island under pendant lights, open to the breakfast area and a large family room so the person cooking is never cut off from everyone else. A two-sided gas fireplace glows through to the office, which has built-ins and French doors for the days you need quiet and the evenings you want to close the door on work and walk away. The formal living room and the formal dining room, just steps from the butler’s pantry, are ready for the long dinners. Newly refinished hardwood floors cover the main level, the stairs are hardwood, and vinyl plank runs through the upper and lower levels. Upstairs, the primary bedroom has a cathedral ceiling, a walk-in closet that is genuinely huge, and a bath with a dual sink vanity, a freestanding soaking tub and a seamless shower, made for slow mornings. Three more bedrooms are generous in size and share an updated bath, and every bathroom in the house has been updated. Downstairs, a huge recreation room and a bedroom with its own sitting area and updated full bath give you room for guests, hobbies, or a corner that is simply yours, and the two car garage still has space for storage. Summer evenings belong to the screened porch off the kitchen, and the two level open air deck puts you right at the height of the trees. The home sits very private, tucked off the path of a cul-de-sac, and backs to Algonkian Regional Park, so the trails begin where your yard ends. The Potomac Heritage Trail leads on toward the river, the Potomack Lakes Sportsplex with its playground and fields is a walk away, and the park’s golf course, hiking trails and boat launch are minutes from your door. Cascades adds five pools, 15 tennis courts, five community centers with fitness areas, bocce, and a full size outdoor basketball court, with Dulles Airport minutes away and Cascades Marketplace, Dulles Town Center, One Loudoun, Leesburg Premium Outlets and Historic Downtown Leesburg all close by.
