Calling all Arts and Crafts Aficionados. This year 2012-built, bungalow-inspired, custom home will melt your heart. Typically you do not get this much charm and character unless you buy an early-century house. Sited on a half-acre lot in McLean's historic Franklin Park neighborhood, this close-in commuter haven has great driveability to Metro, Tysons, Arlington, Amazon's new HQ, and downtown DC. Walk in from the flagstone front porch to find thoughtful attention to detail, to include custom casings, lintels, and baseboards; period-inspired design elements; a stunning on-trend island kitchen with white Amish-crafted cabinetry and a breakfast area. The adjoining family room is anchored with an American art pottery-inspired tile surround gas fireplace, which also connects to a screened porch. Also on the main level is a library; a warm, lodge-inspired "snug" sitting room with a striking stone fireplace; and a handy mudroom complete with dog shower. The upper level has 5 bedrooms and 4 baths, to include a well-located owner's retreat oriented for optimizing views of the woods. A versatile au-paire suite (or professional home office) located above the garage features its own separate staircase and access. The lower level offers a separate outside entrance for flexible space and includes a second full kitchen, living and dining areas, 6th bedroom, 5th full bath, and ample storage. This is a fabulous space for an in-law suite or just perfect for gaming and movie watching. There is also a full laundry room on each level of the home (3 laundry rooms). Thoughtfully designed by Richard Foster Architects and built by McLean's renowned Buchanan-Price. Just 1.4 miles to EFC Metro!
