Over 7,000 sq. ft. of luxury on over half an acre, with solid oak flooring, custom wood casings, 5+ bedrooms, 2 large offices with river views, 4.5 baths, rare 3-car garage, plus an exercise room, bonus room, and recreation room.

These include custom stone walkways and patio, Trex deck, professional landscaping, fencing, irrigation system, Restoration Hardware lighting, and custom closets. Enjoy the country setting and water views from the main and upper levels. Sit and relax on the front porch and chat with neighbors in this friendly, walkable neighborhood. The main level offers a chef's kitchen with a center island and gas range, a Butler’s Pantry, dining room, and breakfast room with an exit to the back deck and fenced yard. The 3-car garage opens into an enormous mudroom just off the kitchen. An entertainer’s dream, hosting large parties for friends and family is easy thanks to the inviting open floor plan. The primary suite is its own wing with 2 walk-in closets, a spa bath with a soaking tub, shower, and double vanity. In addition to the primary suite, there are 3 more bedrooms and 2 baths on the upper level plus the laundry room. The walk-out lower level with spacious recreation room has an additional bedroom with ensuite bath, exercise room, bonus room, and two large storage rooms with shelving. Two sump pumps, a HERS energy rating of 56, and three HVAC units provide effective storm management and temperature control for the entire family. An opportunity to own a one-of-a-kind home in a neighborhood once part of George Washington’s personal estate. Live amidst the beauty and richness of Virginia’s history just minutes from it all!
