Coolest house in Vienna! Colonial meets Contemporary with over half a million in upgrades. A plush and beautiful professionally landscaped lawn greet your eye as you pull in to the ample driveway. Walk by the flora towards the front door, perchance to glimpse a chipmunk scurrying about. Enter into the foyer, and you'll immediately feel the contemporary flair as you observe the eclectic dining room chandelier to your right and the custom staircase with ash wood-slatted railings leading you towards the kitchen. There you'll find a contemporary culinary haven, replete with sleek white slab cabinets, quartz countertops, Sub-Zero fridge, gas Gaggenau cooktop, all Miele ovens (conventional, microwave and speed) and pantry. Turn to face the 2-story family room and soak in 2 levels of windows, an overlook and tons of ambient light. The SPD Smart Glass on the top windows will keep you cool during the day and let in the maximum ambient light at dawn and dusk. The office with adjustable wood shelving, half bath, laundry room and below stair Harry Potter room round out this level. Don't forget the 2-car garage, with plenty of room for 2-cars and ample storage to boot. Head up the fanned-out staircase to the upper level and saunter into the master bedroom. There you'll find a spacious bedroom, fit for a King (bed), with a deep walk-in closet and custom shelving system. When you walk into the master bathroom you'll be blown away by the 12' x 4' double-headed Roman-style shower with a steam generator (Steamist), frameless glass doors, dual vanities in contemporary style and water closet. The other three bedrooms and hall bath on this level are connected by a sweeping hallway and bridge that overlooks the 2-story foyer and family room. Head to the basement via the completely redesigned floating staircase. There you'll find a wide open floor plan with every amenity you could want for a child or adult. A counter-sized drawing area with drafting-size cabinets lets the kids doodle to their heart's content, while a terraced bookshelf and reading nook under the stairs offers another secret hideaway. Two separate areas with rubberized matting over tile will allow everyone to exercise and play, with a long wall of sliding wood paneled closets in the larger area. A space in the center features a media center for television and video games. The full basement kitchen features all Bosch appliances -- fridge, gas cooktop, speed oven/microwave and dishwasher -- and is beautifully complimented by contemporary Poggenpohl cabinets and countertops. Japanese Nakamoto paneling frames the kitchen area. The full bathroom has a contemporary flair, and the permitted bedroom with ample closet space rounds out the areas in the basement. Truly a perfect haven for the kids, in-laws or au pair! Now head to the backyard, where the teak ironwood deck greets your feet as soon as you step out of the kitchen. Cable railings add that contemporary flair again. You'll enjoy the professional landscaping amid the hydrangeas, hostas, birch, magnolia and pine trees as you soak in the privacy. A curved flagstone patio awaits you at the bottom stair of the deck, and the bubbling fountain will serve as a welcome retreat from a hard day's work. The neighborhood climbing tree is just a few feet away in the common area, so relax while the kids burn off some energy within sight. Did we mention how awesome the location is? Walk a minute down the trail and hop in the pool at the Dunn Loring Swim Club. Bike 5 minutes to the W&OD trial, or bike up to 15 minutes to any one of 7 Vienna playgrounds. Harris Teeter is a 3-minute drive. If you want to leave and go to work, Vienna Metro, I-66 and the Capital Beltway are all just a few minutes drive from home. If you need to work from home, no worries; the office has hard-wired ethernet access to the Verizon FiOS. Power out? No worries, the 24Kw Generac generator with ATM switch will keep your computers running no matter what. Hurry!
