SECOND CHANCE - BACK ON MARKET! Nestled within the highly sought-after Chain Bridge Forest section of Chesterbrook Woods (10 acres of HOA-protected lush woodlands) this classic 5-bed/4.5-bath/4,159-sqft colonial exudes timeless charm and feels integrated with the surrounding scenery. Elevated from street level and sited on a spacious 13,098 square-foot lot with a large front/side yard (which may be fenced in), the home is framed by exquisite mature landscaping that perfectly complements its clean lines, classic architecture, and slate roof.

Step inside, and you're greeted by large, airy spaces that flow seamlessly into one another, highlighted by new Anderson windows (2021/2022) that flood the home with natural light. The main level is anchored by a newly renovated kitchen (2023 by Case Design) featuring Thermador appliances, a built-in breakfast nook, and an adjoining family room, perfect for gathering with loved ones. The spacious living room, complete with a wood-burning fireplace, and the formal dining room offer elegant spaces for both entertaining and everyday living. A convenient powder room completes this level. Upstairs, the charm continues with a king-sized primary suite, offering a private retreat with a custom-built dressing room and an ensuite bath that features a jacuzzi, separate rainfall shower, and dual vanities. Three additional bedrooms and two full baths complete this level. The walkout lower level expands the living space with a large family room, a fifth bedroom, a full bath, and a spacious mechanical room, all with direct access to the two-car garage.

The true highlight of this home are the outdoor spaces, which includes the spectacular flagstone patio, thoughtfully designed across multiple tiers, where layers of lush landscaping and mature trees create a serene backdrop for relaxation or entertaining. This patio has exquisite built-in-lighting and a 7-zone sprinkler system. Whether enjoying peaceful summer evenings in the perched seating area or tending to the koi pond, the outdoor spaces are a private oasis. A large front and side lawn provide the opportunity for a fenced in yard.

***Other Recent Updates include: new flues for all chimneys, 22KW Generator, new exterior doors, new toilets, and more.***
