Looking for a country estate home with tons of charm in one of the prettiest equestrian communities in northern VA? This is it! Nestled at the end of a cul-de-sac on almost seven wooded acres, your private retreat awaits you. This delightful property welcomes you with over 5600 sf of finished living space in a serene setting and ideal location. Upon entering the house, you will notice the beautiful wide-planked wood-pegged hardwood floors. Like so many other features in this home, quality and craftmanship abound. Bright and filled with light, the rooms are spacious in size, yet feel cozy and inviting. This is the ideal setting for entertaining large groups or small intimate get-togethers. The large foyer welcomes you with an impressive staircase and opens to the family and living room areas. There are 9' ceilings throughout the main level. The family room's focal point is a huge brick wood burning fireplace reminiscent of an era where a large pot was simmering over the fire. (There is an iron rod in the fireplace for doing just that!) Next to the family room is a completely renovated chef's kitchen (new in 2017) with a five-burner gas Thermador cooktop, double wall ovens (including microwave/convection), beautiful custom cabinetry with soft close doors/drawers, separate vegetable/prep sink, wine/beverage refrigerator, concealed pop-up electrical outlets and a pass-through window to the formal dining room. The dining room has French doors that open to an inviting screened-in porch with a skylight & ceiling fan. Down the hall is a fantastic library with a wall of built-in bookcases and a two-sided wood-burning fireplace. Two sets of double doors create an alcove leading to the living room and third fireplace. On the upper level is a primary bedroom suite with two walk-in closets, two additional sets of double closets, a sitting room and adjoining primary bathroom. A second bedroom also has two walk-in closets and an adjoining bathroom and could also serve as a primary bedroom. There are two additional bedrooms on this level and a third full bath. On the 2nd upper level are the 5th and 6th bedrooms (both huge), each with a vanity sink and walk-in closet. Both bedrooms share a Jack & Jill bathroom. The lower level has a finished walk-out rec room, media room, half bathroom and workshop with workbenches and a window. (This could be finished into another bedroom.) The exterior of the property is equally charming. To the side of the house is an herb garden with a white picket fence surrounding it. In the backyard is an expansive two-tiered deck and a large outdoor brick fireplace which is ideal for enjoying star-lit evenings with family and friends. Also on the property is a four-stall barn with tack room, creek, and nearby pasture and trails. In addition to the trails within the community, there is access to fifty miles of trails for riding horses or hiking without ever having to cross a major road. The house has many updates including: energy efficient Pella windows and new front door(2020), an updated 74 gallon hot water heater & furnace boiler (2017) and a new disposal. There is also a whole house generator (natural gas). All three upper levels have hardwood floors and have just been freshly painted. The English Hills is highly sought after for its beauty, amenities, and location. The historic town of Clifton, Paradise Springs Winery and Burke Lake Regional Park are close by as well as a variety of shopping and dining options.
