Welcome to this enchanting, expanded, freshly painted Cape Cod in the desirable Cabin John Park neighborhood, set on an incredible 17,000-square-foot lot. Originally built in 1938, a major addition by renowned architect Thomas Manion beautifully combines classic charm with modern living spaces. This home is highlighted by exquisite finishes, skylights, beamed ceilings, two cast iron wood-burning stoves, high ceilings, gleaming wood floors, and superb architectural details throughout.

The main floor features an inviting living room with recessed lighting and a fireplace with a cast iron insert. The heart of the home lies in its open-concept floor plan, seamlessly integrating cooking, entertainment, and relaxation zones. The updated kitchen opens to both the dining room and family room, offering granite counters, a stainless steel appliance suite, a Thermador gas range with a stainless steel hood, Mouser custom wood cabinetry with soft-close drawers, and two built-in China cabinets. The sun-drenched dining/family room has vaulted and beamed ceilings, with access to a rear deck under a pergola that provides shade for outdoor dining and relaxation. The spacious family room boasts a stone accent wall with a cast iron stove and portal windows. Two bright bedrooms and updated full bathroom complete the main level.

The newly carpeted second level features two en-suite bedrooms with attached bathrooms. A generous, light-filled primary suite features two walk-in closets and a primary bathroom featuring a double vanity and jetted soaking tub. The lower level is unfinished, offering a laundry area and two large storage rooms.

The quiet and picturesque grounds of this home are truly captivating, featuring a wildlife-friendly grass lawn, mature trees, native and ornamental plantings, and a large annual/vegetable garden. The southwest orientation of the house is ideal for capturing late afternoon light and beautiful winter sunsets. The back deck offers a tranquil place to eat, sit, and enjoy the abundant backyard wildlife. A long, gravel driveway leads to a detached garage.
