The view from the Master Bedroom is unparalleled and extends into Maryland and the Catoctin Mountain Range. Back from the hall is the Mudroom,a half bath and the entrance to the extended three car garage. Above the garage, with access by a well hidden door, stairs climb to partially finished spacewhich could be an office, storage, exercise or studio area. Upstairs are three bedrooms, two of which have sitting alcoves with fireplaces and en suite baths.These are cozy retreats and also afford wonderful mountain views. The third bedroom, now used as an office is paneled in rich glowing wood and haswalls covered in a soft linen fabric. There is a wall of windows and an en suite bath. A spacious activity room completes the upstairs living area. It has beenused as a sewing and crafts area, but would be a very suitable playroom, studio, exercise room, office or bedroom. The lower level is a surprising, luxuriousmedia room with fabric covered walls. Two of the walls hide Murphy Beds which pull down for extra guests or children’s sleepovers. Through heavyarched wooden doors is the wine cellar, perhaps the best in Northern Virginia. The ceiling has huge hand hewn chestnut beams supporting the whiteoak barreled ceiling. The wine racks are made of white oak and accommodate 3500 bottles. The lower level extends below the entire house. It also includescopious storage rooms and cabinets and extra refrigerator/freezer off the media room, work shop, and a full bath. The utility room is reminiscentof the engine room of an ocean liner.
