    What's special

    Irrigation systemFully finished lower levelBeautifully fully fenced yardSpacious en-suite bathElegant finishesPainted two-car garageAbundant natural light
    Main-level bedroom suite, five full baths, and a 2026 roof — the Clara Bow model in Brambleton's Legacy Elementary walk zone. Three fully finished levels, built for households that need flexibility: a full bedroom and full bath on the main floor for parents, guests, or a private office; four bedrooms and three full baths upstairs; and a finished walk-up lower level with two extra rooms and its own full bath. Five bedrooms, five full baths, no compromises. The expensive work is done. New roof (2026), both HVAC units replaced within the last five years, major kitchen appliances under five years old, and upgraded closet systems throughout. The painted two-car garage includes an EV charging port and built-in storage shelving. Extra features included: The lower-level walks up to a fully fenced backyard with an irrigation system, and currently serves as a recreation room and fitness center — the full-size billiard table, fitness equipment, and two fireproof safes convey with the home. Brambleton Town Center, with its shops, restaurants, gym, theater, and library, is minutes away; Hanson Regional Park and Beaverdam Reservoir are a five-minute drive, and Metro is about ten. HOA fee includes upgraded Verizon FiOS internet and cable. Zoned for Legacy Elementary (walk zone), Brambleton Middle, and Independence High. One year home warranty offered. Lockbox showings, same-day welcome.
