966 BELLVIEW RD Mclean, VA 22102

Sited on almost 2-acres with pastoral views, this charming farmhouse has been completely rebuilt, refurbished, renovated, and expanded. Rustic details in this home integrate reclaimed wood from a circa 1790's Southern Maryland log structure into a thoroughly modern context, preserving its character through wood-beamed ceilings, wide-planked hardwood floors, painted walls with a hand-hewn effect, stylized barn doors, exposed brick and elegant wood paneling to round out the finishes. The heart of the home features what is believed to be the original fireplace with its fieldstone hearth located in the wonderfully warm kitchen with classic English-style cupboards and gourmet appliances, A circular driveway, separate guest house and detached three car garage add to the enchanting property. Two covered porches and a stone patio allow the outdoors to blend seamlessly with the interior, and large beautiful windows enhance almost every room. A family entryway from the rear yard leads to the kitchen, the true heart of this home, flanked by both formal and casual wings. Two staircases connect to the second level where bedrooms are bright, spacious, and restful and baths are updated, accented by clean marble tops and classic tile finishes. The owner's suite's expansive sitting area with fireplace leads into a generous walk-in closet and fresh spa-like bath with steam shower. The lower level with wine cellar, wet bar, full bath, exercise room and recreation room maintains the theme of restful living, as do the perfectly proportioned living quarters in the separate guest house. Friends and family will benefit from the separate studio suite with bathroom and full kitchen, where au-pair living configurations can also abound. Offering ultimate privacy and plentiful greenery views, the almost two-acre grounds are a secluded retreat with easy access to both Georgetown Pike and Old Dominion Rd, maintaining the convenience of accessible amenities while preserving a countryside feel that is utterly timeless.
