One of THE LARGEST homes in the community! And it feels like it, as soon as you step inside the soaring foyer and leave your bags, shoes and worries at the door, before deciding where to spread out next. Rooms for everything and everyone - working, study, play, crafts, entertaining, music, gym - this home provides it all.
What is the seller's most favorite feature? All the space, she said. Well that, and getting to everything she needs in nearby Manassas in just minutes - especially Paris Baguette.
The separate dining room is as oversized, as it is elegant. Convenient little butler's pantry begs for a coffee bar (or other kind of bar), as an afterthought to the kitchen. Speaking of the kitchen , it's beautiful and just waiting for you to bring it to life with the sounds and smells that make memories, like Saturday morning breakfast. Casual Breakfast area filled with sunlight from the bay window is great for a quick snack or lunch.
All within earshot of the grand Family Room - start your gaze on the fireplace and keep looking up. A bonus that comes with the house is what I'm calling a parent protection shield - it's really just mesh across the railing on the walkway overlooking the family room, to help prevent the unexpected impact of a lego, stuffed animal or toy car from above. But really, this gathering place is absolutely stunning and spacious, yet still your guests and closest friends can spill out onto the deck for laughs and storytelling well into the evening.
The other perks of this level are the powder room, and bright but cozy room with built in bookcases that you can focus, work or craft in the peace and quiet behind closed doors. It's this owners most favorite room! The main level still offers a front formal living room, and extra large laundry and mud room near the garage entry.
Heading upstairs, there are so many bedrooms and every one has a bathroom! Well two of the bedrooms share a jack-n-jill double vanity and bath time room. Third bedroom has its own bathroom, great for guests. They all leave you alone to your Master Suite - once again cathedral ceilings add to the space, the closet is more like a dressing room, and the bath has a soaking tub, separate shower and extra long dual vanity.
On days when you just want to retreat to the cooler lower level, it offers almost as much. A perfect room for guests, or dimly lit office, right across from another full bathroom. There is another official bedroom as well, that walks right out to the back yard through a glass sliding door. The main event is your choice - game day or movie night with the projector and screen? Just add a popcorn machine. Or room for the most rowdy play dates.
We just have to touch briefly on the storage though - the perfect amount of unfinished space for one of the largest water heaters you will see in a home (its even commercial grade so no worries about filling that soaking tub in the Master), updated HVAC and all your boxes, gym, decorations, you name it.
Pompom isn't just fun to say when you order things, it could be your source of pride to come home to!
