Wake up to birdsong, pastoral views, and the peace of 3 private acres at this beautifully maintained 5-bedroom Colonial, where country living and modern convenience come together in a way that's increasingly rare in the DMV. With both cleared acreage and forest, this property borders an expanse of undeveloped rural legacy farmland while being close to shopping, dining, commuter routes, parks and recreation. This approx. 4,200 SQFT home has freshly cleaned and polished hardwood floors and newly painted walls on the first and second floors. The kitchen features granite countertops, wood cabinetry, a butler’s pantry, a closet-style pantry, stainless appliances and subway tile backsplash. A Samsung Flex Duo convection oven offers the flexibility of one large oven or dual cooking zones for holiday meals, entertaining, and those occasions when one casserole somehow becomes three. The adjacent breakfast area features relaxing views of the woods in the backyard and opens into the family room, where there is an almost-new Harman top-of-the-line pellet stove (2025, serviced/cleaned 2026). An adjoining sunroom/study with cathedral ceilings and copious windows provides a bright retreat. The upstairs level includes five bedrooms and three full baths. The spacious primary suite features cathedral ceilings, two closets, and an ensuite full bathroom. On the opposite end of the hall, a large private suite above the garage features dormer windows and an ensuite full bath, offering flexibility for multigenerational living, guests, hobbies, or work-from-home needs. A third full bathroom in the hallway is convenient for the remaining three ample and sunny bedrooms. An unfinished walkout basement houses the laundry room and plenty of space for storage or a home gym, and is ready for future expansion. Outdoor living is a defining feature of the property. The expansive Trex deck overlooks a peaceful backyard where the owners regularly enjoy visits from deer and wild turkeys and, on rare occasions, a wandering cow—a happy reminder that some places still move at their own pace. The mostly flat, usable acreage offers ample room for gardening, recreation, pets, outdoor gatherings, equipment/vehicle storage, or simply enjoying the extra space and privacy that are increasingly difficult to find. The front yard features native plantings, including a stately Southern Magnolia and a vibrant redbud, while the cherry- and pear-tree-lined driveway creates a welcoming approach to the home. Equally impressive is the care this home has received over the years. Major improvements include a roof replacement in 2012/2013, replacement windows (2013), Lennox HVAC systems (2017), a professionally permitted Tesla EV charger (2023), updated bathroom flooring (2026), fresh interior paint (2026) and professional exterior power washing (2026). Additional features include a side-load two-car garage, detached workshop shed (2016), motion-sensor exterior lighting, deep private well with passing water-quality test (2026), and extensive owner-maintained records documenting the property's care and improvements. Buyers relocating from Northern Virginia will appreciate the opportunity to enjoy significantly more land, privacy, and living space without sacrificing access to major commuter routes. This home is an opportunity to own privacy without isolation and room to grow.
