This is a rare opportunity to own one of only 17 homes in Congressional Country Club Estates. Built in 1963, and sited on a 1-acre gardeners paradise, this home has been lovingly maintained and renovated by its owners over the past twenty-five years. The interior features include custom moldings and built-ins, beautiful oak hardwood floors, a recent upgrade of the master suite and bath, an abundance of closet space throughout the house, and a light-filled, walkout basement with a guest bedroom and bath.The lawn and gardens are vibrant and inviting from early spring to late fall, with year-round greenery and blooms from every view. The sophisticated variety of perennials, shrubs, and hardwoods, reflecting the influence of a Master Gardener, showcase the beautiful outdoor spaces that transition from formal plantings in the front to a shaded woodland in the rear of the fenced property. The flagstone patio is ideal for large gatherings, the three ponds offer a peaceful habitat for fish and frogs, and the firepit deck is the perfect spot to spend cool evenings in both spring and fall. The outdoor Weber grill is only steps away from the kitchen, and is connected to the homes natural gas service.The propertys off-street, gravel parking area can comfortably accommodate three cars. The two-car garage, featuring custom-made barn doors, is currently configured to provide separate spaces for a large workshop and to store a full array of gardening equipment, but it can easily be converted to its original purpose. The garage connects to the main house through a covered breezeway, leading directly into a thoughtfully designed mudroom for easy storage of shoes and outerwear.
