**** THE ART OF LANDSCAPE**** This beautiful Post and Beam Home is perfectly sited on a rise in the middle of this 4 acre lot. It is a very unique home that is like cross between a Mountain Lodge and a Zen Temple. The whole home is positioned to look out at the land. You feel that you are outdoors from most every room. From the time you enter through front gate into the circular drive, you will notice all the natural landscaping and leafy canopy encircling the home, offering privacy and seclusion. The owner, a landscape architect, has planted ferns, grasses, lady slippers, wildflowers and Japanese maples. The dry-stack stone walls with built-in stone benches guard the paywall. It all fits together gracefully and looks like it has been that way forever. The patios, the pool, the decks and waterfalls all set the stage for one extraordinary property...... Once you get to the entry way you find a Japanese styled entry that leads to the front door, as you step inside you find the m lange of woods, mahogany, teak, walnut and pine that give the Acorn Deck Home a rustic feel, as does the stone fireplace that anchors the family room. To the left you find the living room with wood floors, beam and wood plank ceilings and walls of glass. As you go to the rear of the home there is a meditation or yoga room that over looks the spa/garden room that is truly an indoor Zen space. As you move along, you come to the updated kitchen that that looks over rear yard and pool. All stainless steel appliances, the sink in the center island is placed so you look outside while using it. Lots of light..... Then you enter the Great room with large stone fireplace cathedral beam and wood ceilings. The Dining room is set off to the back of the home open to the great room and off the kitchen. To the front off a private hall is a 1st floor bedroom with a full bath. As you find your way up the open stair way to the upper level loft, great as an office/library /homework or sitting area. There are also two large bedrooms up with a full bath. Both with wood and beam cathedral ceilings...... Owner uses the entire upper level as her offices, so you will need to look past that. The best part is still to come, as you go down to the lower level, you enter a very private space just for you. The large sitting area as you first enter the room is bordered by an enormous master bedroom with 11 foot ceiling and large palladium bay window that overlook the outdoor pond with waterfall in the stone garden. On the otherside you find the two story solarium with four skylights a heated stone floor, cedar walls, a stone waterfall and the hot tub. In the corner you find a stone fireplace and this all walks out to the side and front court yard........ As you continue though the master level you will find an exercise room the opens to the court yard. A sauna and his and her baths that meet in the middle in a shower room. There is also find plenty of closet space that will satisfy even the most demanding. At last you will now stroll out to the woodland gardens, enjoy a moment of quiet reverie in the tea house that overlooks the waterfall and the rumbling of the much larger Great falls........ Enjoy the in ground Pool the grass open areas or the secret gardens. Birds and chipmunks are always on hard, as they love this yard as well. No deer however, there is a 8 foot deer fence surround the entire yard. If you are a little more adventurous you can hike down to Riverbend Park and enjoy the 12,000 acres of Great Falls National Park, bike it or even ride horses on the bridle paths, you can rent or put in your kayak or boat at the park, and fish the Potomac, there is always something to do........ You are only 10 minutes to Tysons Corner and the schools are the best in the area. This is truly a place of peace and inspiration. A rare gem.
