    What's special

    Private elevatorDesigner cabinetryWalk-in closetDual-sink vanityRooftop terraceRetractable awningGranite countertops
    Some homes feel exposed. This one feels like a sanctuary — and one of the rarest in the community. The Harrison by EYA is one of the largest models in Grosvenor Heights, and one of the few with a private driveway in front of the garage. At over 3,500 square feet across four light-filled levels — connected by your own private elevator — this is the kind of space that makes you wonder why you ever settled for less. Yes, there's a sound wall along the rear property line. The sellers will tell you themselves: after years here, it simply faded away. What stayed? The privacy. The seclusion. The sense that this home sits apart from the rest — tucked behind a canopy of trees that makes every level feel like its own retreat. The main level sets the tone: soaring 10-ft ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows flooding the space with light, and a Thermador chef's kitchen with designer cabinetry, granite countertops, and an island built for real life. The great room anchors it all with a modern gas fireplace — the kind you actually use. Up top, the rooftop terrace takes it somewhere else entirely: Viking Professional outdoor kitchen, gas BBQ grill, retractable awning, and a treetop view that makes golden hour feel personal. The primary suite is a genuine retreat — frameless glass shower, dual-sink vanity, walk-in closet. The entry-level flex space handles whatever your life demands: home office, gym, guest suite. And the Grosvenor-Strathmore Metro is just minutes away, with top dining and Rock Creek Park right in the mix. Rare size. Private feel. A rooftop worth coming home for.
