RARELY AVAILABLE penthouse condo in Evans Farm WITH 3 GARAGE SPACES, a serene super-select gated community in the heart of downtown McLean. With its high ceilings, architectural detail, large window line, outdoor space, and expansive light-filled rooms, this magnificent 3-bedroom residence - 3500 SF! - on two levels, exudes gracious elegance and privacy. This is not your typical condo building, nor your typical condo unit. The cozy marble clad lobby is reminiscent of an elegant classic Parisian brownstone. With only two units at the penthouse level, the entryway is private. Once inside you will be captivated with the elegance of the foyer -- its high ten foot ceilings, graceful moldings, limestone floors, and golden light. The feel of the home is definitely akin to a single family home or large townhouse. The dining room is embassy sized (it can easily accommodate a table for 12) -- flanked by the spacious living room with marble fireplace, oversized windows and French doors leading to the large terrace. Both living and dining room have tray ceilings raising the height to 12 feet, further enhancing the aura of spaciousness and grandeur. Also on the main level is the large gourmet kitchen (with a Subzero built-in refrigerator, ample high quality cabinetry, and double ovens) two bedrooms/2.5 baths and a comfortable office/study with custom built-ins, laundry room with utility sink, and a built-in sound system trhoughout. The master suite is a spacious, sunny retreat with large windows, 12 ft tray ceiling, a terrace, sitting room, two walk in closets, and a marble clad master bath. Upstairs offers a large loft area with an open sitting room with a view on the pond, full bath, bedroom and bonus room which could be a second office for those many buyers working from home or transformed into a huge additional closet. The upper level loft area offers privacy and autonomy uncommon in most condo floor plans. One of the best features of the Evans Farm condos is the security (fully gated with cctv camera surveillance including at the building), and the serenity of both the building and its surroundings. The landscaping is lush and meticulously tended (by the HOA), so every view from the many windows is lovely, as well as offering a beautiful and tranquil place for neighbors to walk. The large terrace is a delight for al fresco dining or lounging with a good book, giving a nice element of outdoor living, again uncommon in condo life. The unit is conveyed with THREE garage spaces and a storage unit. There is also ample street parking for guests. Finally, the location of Evans Farm is superior. Situated at the edge of downtown McLean, shopping is easy, and the farmers market on Fridays - located just across the street - is beloved by the locals. The location is also prime with quick access to the 495 and 66, minutes from Tysons, and blocks from the Silverline Metro. Wonderful McLean schools.
