Welcome to nearly 3,000 square feet of bold, modern luxury in the William M. Meredith School Catchment—where soaring 16-foot ceilings, a wall of windows, and an open-concept design create a showstopping first impression. The chef’s kitchen is built to impress, with custom 42-inch cabinetry, a quartz island, stainless steel appliances, and a tile backsplash. And because great design should elevate everyday moments, the dining area flows seamlessly to a Juliet balcony. Upstairs, the second level offers two spacious bedrooms, a private marble ensuite, a full Carrara bath, and a dedicated laundry space—complete with a new washer and dryer. Then there’s the primary suite—your private retreat. An entire level just for you, featuring two walk-in closets, a spa-like bath with a Jacuzzi tub and rain shower, and a private office leading to a deck. Downstairs? A fully finished lower level—the ultimate flex space. Media room, gym, playroom—you decide. And the extras? A new hot water heater. New dishwasher. Built-in speakers throughout. Plus, two-zone HVAC, a security system, and potential for a second parking spot in the QVNA lot. Style. Space. Location. This is the one.
