Experience unparalleled luxury in this extraordinary estate, boasting over 10,000 square feet of expertly crafted living space. Designed by acclaimed architect Ted Visnic, this residence showcases timeless design with an impressive use of locally sourced Carderock stone from Bethesda, featured throughout the exterior--from the stately front elevation and twin chimneys to the entry pillars and retaining walls. A newly widened and paved driveway, framed by stone columns and wood fencing, sets the stage for a truly grand arrival. The circular driveway and additional parking pad provide ample room for hosting guests with ease. Step through a solid wood front door beneath a graceful transom and into an expansive foyer with soaring arches, rich wood trim, and custom plantation shutters on every window. Warm walnut flooring is paired with exquisite wood wainscoting, creating a welcoming yet refined atmosphere. The formal living and dining rooms flank the entry and feature large windows and fireplace. A butler's pantry with wet bar and wine fridge leads seamlessly into the dining area--perfect for entertaining. Sunlight pours into the rear of the home through glass atrium doors, opening to a lanai overlooking a private backyard oasis with new landscaping, a spacious stone patio, and a sport court. The main-level library offers two full walls of built-in shelving, a cozy fireplace, and French doors for added privacy. At the heart of the home lies the gourmet kitchen, complete with custom cabinetry, McKenzie Childs light fixtures, a massive granite island, and high-end appliances including a Sub-Zero refrigerator and freezer, six-burner gas range, double ovens, and designer hood. The adjacent breakfast room is wrapped in windows and flows into a stunning family room with a coffered ceiling, custom built-ins, and yet another fireplace. The walk-out lower level is designed for entertaining, featuring a full guest suite, private patio, wet bar, and a professional home theater outfitted with reclining leather seating. Upstairs, five spacious bedrooms offer comfort and privacy, each with new custom hardwood floors. The primary suite is a retreat unto itself with three walk-in closets and a spa-inspired bath. An additional bedroom suite occupies the top level, complete with new flooring and a private full bath. Modern amenities include a full Control4 smart home automation system with integrated cameras, geo-thermal heating and cooling, and a whole-home generator powered by a 1,000-gallon propane tank. Impeccably maintained and thoughtfully upgraded, this home offers a rare combination of architectural beauty, premium finishes, and everyday functionality.
