This thoughtfully custom-designed contemporary home built by P.D. Gravett, AIA offers open concept living for easy entertaining. Created with balance, to allow separation of spaces without disconnection, the home's architect designed the house so as to bring beautiful natural light throughout the day to the main rooms, thanks to its many windows, skylights, glass doors, and high ceilings. Approaching the home, you immediately get the sense of nature’s beauty.  The earth tone exterior lends its way to the natural interior. With gleaming hardwood floors and soaring ceilings, the welcoming first floor is unique yet timeless. Complemented by distinctive architectural features, the first-floor living spaces offer plenty of room for both formal and informal gatherings. All enhanced by an angled oak staircase with multiple decorative shelves and nooks to display your favorite art/collections. The smartly designed kitchen with premium finishes includes a center island and breakfast bar, stainless steel appliances, abundant Woodmark Cabinetry, granite countertops, an adjacent breakfast area, a butler’s pantry, and a comfortable family room with a gas fireplace. On the upper level, the primary suite is a true retreat with a walk-in closet and a light-filled bath with a large shower and lofty skylights. Two additional bedrooms, a large hall bath, and a laundry room conveniently complete the upper level. Ideal for movie night, the lower level provides a recreation room, guest suite or den, full bath, private kitchenette, future wine room, and plenty of storage space. The beautifully landscaped property contains mature plantings to give the feel of an urban oasis and is enhanced by a charming Trex deck with a retractable awning located off the family room and kitchen; perfect for evening cocktails and dinner. Found down the long driveway, is the oversized 2-car garage and exterior attached storage room. Located in the quiet and coveted neighborhood of West McLean, this house is located just blocks from all of downtown McLean’s stores, shops and restaurants, Mclean Farmers Market, and local parks, and offers easy access to Tysons, DC, major commuting routes, plus airports.
