Set quietly along the edge of Awbury Arboretum, this classic stone Colonial offers a rare opportunity to step into a truly special setting and make it your own. Framed by mature trees and anchored by a striking Japanese maple, the property is instantly recognizable by its newly installed fence and timeless curb presence. A gracious set of stone steps leads to a covered portico and traditional center hall entry, where the home’s original character is immediately on display. To the left, a massive living room unfolds with a wood-burning fireplace and elegant marble detailing, flowing seamlessly through a double entry into a sun-drenched sunroom. To the right, a formal dining room connects naturally to an expansive kitchen with an oversized breakfast room, pantry, and convenient first-floor powder room. Upstairs, the second level offers two generously sized bedrooms and a hall bath, along with a true primary suite featuring a large bedroom and walk-in closet. The third floor adds even more flexibility with two additional bedrooms, a full bath, and abundant storage. A partially finished basement with an additional powder room provides bonus space for work, play, or future expansion. Behind the scenes, the heavy lifting has already been done. The home has been extensively rewired and replumbed, giving the next owner a major head start. What remains is the opportunity to bring your own vision to the finishes and create something truly exceptional in one of Germantown’s most picturesque and storied locations.
