Property Description
Experience luxury living at its finest in this exquisite Colonial, perfectly positioned on a breathtaking 0.42-acre lot with wooded views in the highly desirable River Hill neighborhood. Backing to the serene Patuxent Wildlife Preserve, this home invites you to enjoy peaceful outdoor living on a screened-in porch that boasts a gas stone fireplace, TV mount, tongue-and-groove wood ceiling, and skylights. Crafted with exceptional attention to detail, this home showcases custom features and premium upgrades throughout. A charming front stone walkway leads to the welcoming covered brick porch, framed by stately columns. Step through double doors into a dramatic two-story foyer, where a hardwood staircase with a custom Craftsman railing and wrought iron balusters sets the tone for the elegant interior. The heart of the home – the gourmet kitchen – delights with top-tier stainless steel appliances, including a commercial-grade six-burner gas range, oversized refrigerator, and built-in microwave and additional wall oven. Granite countertops and dual breakfast bars, a center island, and a designer tile backsplash highlight the kitchen’s superior design. Step into the family room, which exudes warmth with a wood burning fireplace and three sets of French doors, each topped with transom windows, leading to the screened-in porch and expansive IPE Brazilian hardwood deck. The deck is a standout, featuring cable railings, custom millwork, a built-in grilling station with cabinetry, and steps to the private backyard. This level also includes a dedicated office with wall mounted desk and a dual entry mudroom. Upstairs, retreat to a luxurious primary suite featuring a spa-inspired bath with a walnut double vanity topped with marble, a freestanding soaking tub, and a walk-in shower adorned with floor-to-ceiling custom tile, multiple shower heads, and massage jets. Additional comforts include a heated ceramic tile floor with programmable radiant heat and a wall-mounted towel warmer. The upper level hall bath offers a modern floating vanity with dual sinks and tub / shower with glass doors, and floor-to-ceiling upgraded porcelain tilework. Three spacious secondary bedrooms with hardwood flooring – one with a Cove ceiling, skylights, and a custom built-in bookcase wall – provide comfortable accommodations for family and guests. The light-filled lower level is ideal for entertaining, featuring a rec room with full-size windows, a wet bar with beverage cooler and built-in microwave, a potential fifth bedroom next to the third full bath with walk-in shower and quartz vanity, and a dedicated home gym with specialty rubber gym flooring. Walk-out French doors lead to the lower level patio and spacious garden shed with large windows and electric service. Meticulously maintained, this home also features dual-zoned HVAC, a new roof with 50-year architectural shingles (2025), three new skylights (2025), dual staircases, dual front entries, and upgraded crown molding throughout. Don’t miss your chance to own this extraordinary residence that combines timeless design with modern comforts in a truly idyllic setting.
