*Recently featured on "Best Address" with Joe Himali!* Located at the quiet junction of McLean, Arlington, and Falls Church, this extraordinary custom home combines thoughtful design, hand-curated Craftsman aesthetics, and precision engineering to achieve LEED Gold-certified energy efficiency — more than twice that of an average home. Flooded with natural light from oversized windows, 10ft ceilings on the main floor create expansive and inviting spaces, while warm wood accents and artisanal stonework impart traditional Craftsman charm. The open-concept floorplan is perfect for relaxing or entertaining, allowing family, friends, and guests to simultaneously enjoy the grand stone fireplace and gourmet kitchen, complete with custom maple cabinetry, onyx soapstone countertops, and top-tier Energy Star and Bosch appliances. French doors open onto an expansive backyard patio with an outdoor kitchen and grill surrounded by an organic garden, offering additional entertainment possibilities on warm evenings. Every element of this home has been thoughtfully designed to optimize comfort and efficiency. From heated stone floors and custom window treatments, to flexible closet configurations that maximize storage options, no detail has been overlooked. Upstairs, an expansive master suite enjoys a private, screened balcony and a stunning marble bathroom with separate shower, soaking tub, and wrap-around dual vanity. En suite bathrooms in three of the four other generously-sized bedrooms ensure that this home can grow with your family and offer plenty of options for guests. The large, fully-finished basement includes a 2-car drive-in garage, mudroom, workshop, and additional storage areas perfect for an exercise room and wine cellar. A masterpiece of energy-efficient design, this LEED Gold-certified property boasts a two-zone, multi-stage geothermal heating and cooling system, on-demand European-style hot water heaters, and state-of-the-art insulation technology to drive utility bills down to a bare minimum in the height of summer and dead of winter. With an energy-recovery ventilation (ERV) fresh air system, durable metal roof primed for solar installation, and rainwater catchment-fed landscaping irrigation, smart engineering seamlessly harnesses nature’s efficiencies for your benefit. Located in the Fairfax County Public School District, this home feeds into Haycock Elementary School, Longfellow Middle School, and Mclean High School. Just over a mile from East Falls Church Metro and Rt. 66, it provides easy commuting options to both Washington, DC and bustling Tyson's Corner.
