Grand custom brick colonial on a half-acre lot on the prettiest cul-de-sac around - simply gorgeous at night. The Tower House itself anchors the street and it's just a jewel of a neighborhood - where neighbors are neighborly - hidden nicely off the George Washington Parkway. Year round view of the Potomac from the top floor and winter views from the Main bedroom. It is spacious in general, with over 6,000 finished square feet, and can accommodate many people in different spaces - and in these unusual times it is especially nice when folks can spread out and not be on top of each other. Super kitchen with breakfast room is a nice gathering spot with a lovely family room with vaulted ceiling and fireplace attached. His and her offices, one is very private with gorgeous built-ins, pocket doors and spectacular light. Gracious dining room, a sweet sitting room with ample book shelves, a mud room, pantry and a powder room round out the wonderful main floor plan. Enjoy five upper bedrooms and three and a half baths (three full upstairs) and the master suite has two walk-in closets and extra space for a couch and chairs - just right for that parent retreat. The other four bedrooms are good size with nice closets and the laundry room is centrally located on the same floor. The top floor offers an enormous recreation room (or think Entertainment/Homework/Game Center for the kids) with an adjoining exercise area + more storage and a utility room. The well lit 1,550 square foot walkout basement is a combination of a finished office, roughed-in bath, a separate storage room and a tremendous amount of unfinished space. The three car side load garage has extra storage space. The covered front porch and the rear patio lead out to a large yard for playing or entertaining - a pool would work perfectly. This loved one-owner home is so close to the parkway for dog walking, biking, running and you can walk to all of it! There are at least four different swim clubs in the surrounding area to join and it is super convenient to the shopping center with Safeway, Village Hardware, Iconic Variety Store, a few dine-in restaurants, vet, hair salon, drugstore, women's boutique, dog store, bakery and a gas station. It is a 30-45 minute commute to downtown D.C. and it's hands down the prettiest commute on the East Coast.
