This model, crafted in 2015, spans four spectacular levels of carefully designed, light-filled living space featuring four bedrooms, three full bathrooms, and one half bathroom (with rough-in for an additional full-bath on 1st level). <br> <br> As an end-unit, this home is wrapped in extra windows that drench the generous 2,244 above-grade finished square feet in beautiful natural sunlight. Step inside to the main level, where an open-concept layout connects the expansive living areas and a gourmet kitchen, perfect for preparing meals or stepping out onto the private balcony to enjoy the fresh evening air. The layout continues up to the tranquil bedroom levels, offering peaceful retreats and pristine bathrooms. The top-level loft provides an incredible, flexible area that easily transforms into a premium executive office, fitness studio, additional guest bedroom, or secondary entertainment zone. It has added security of an indoor sprinkler system and convenient water hose bibs in the garage and 4th level deck. There are also 2 HVAC systems to ensure you have a comfortable indoor climate year round. <br> <br> Located in the prestigious Fairfax County Public Schools district, the home offers close proximity to highly rated neighborhood schools, including Floris Elementary School, Carson Middle School, and Westfield High School. <br> <br> This premier location seamlessly connects you to the best entertainment and history Northern Virginia has to offer.
