Sun-filled and impeccably built, this custom 2019 residence offers 5 bedrooms and 5.5 baths across three finished levels.

Steps to hundreds of shops, grocers, and restaurants; 7 minutes to DC, easy access to I-395, Route 50, and I-66. Designed and built by the owner with materials chosen for permanence, not price point. Heavier framing and upgraded insulation well beyond code keep utility costs low, paired with two-zone Trane HVAC at high SEER ratings. Copper supply lines throughout — no flex piping. Andersen wood windows with aluminum cladding. Solid wood interior doors, all but unheard of in new construction. A concrete safe room for severe weather.
