Situated on a quiet street tucked between two private cul-de-sacs, this extraordinary home began as the standard Stanford model by M/I Homes and was masterfully reimagined by the original owners during construction, resulting in a floor plan rarely found and truly one of a kind. Beautifully maintained and thoughtfully improved over the years, it reflects exceptional pride of ownership throughout. With five spacious bedrooms, three full and one half bathrooms, and a large bonus room, every detail speaks to careful intention, quality craftsmanship, impeccable care, and enduring value.
From the moment you arrive, the charming flagstone front porch, lush landscaping, flagstone walls, and a storybook setting create a warm and memorable first impression. Step through the ProVia fiberglass front door and you’ll see this home has been cherished. New atrium doors and a new storm door further enhance style and function, while most of the exterior wood trim has been wrapped for easy maintenance and long term peace of mind.
Rich maple hardwood floors, finished in a custom stain, bring warmth and elegance throughout the main level. Gracious formal living and dining rooms are complemented by a welcoming family room with a wood-burning fireplace, creating inviting spaces for both entertaining and everyday living. At the heart of the home is a beautifully renovated kitchen completed in 2019, featuring Taj Mahal quartzite countertops, a marble tile backsplash, custom cabinetry, high-end GE Café appliances, a handcrafted range hood, and a Zephyr exhaust system. A thoughtfully designed pantry, conveniently located just off the garage entry, adds both charm and everyday functionality. The powder room on this level was also fully renovated as part of the kitchen update, reflecting the same attention to detail and cohesive design.
Upstairs, you’ll find five generously sized bedrooms, including a luxurious primary retreat featuring a spa-inspired bathroom and an expansive walk-in closet. The additional bedrooms are well proportioned and share a beautifully updated hall bath. A conveniently located laundry room on this level adds to the home’s everyday ease and functionality.
Downstairs, the finished basement offers a welcoming space to relax and entertain, featuring a custom wet bar, new mini fridge, a built-in keg, striking tile work, and open sightlines created through thoughtful structural reconfiguration. A finished storage room with a utility sink and ceramic tile flooring provides flexibility as a work or hobby room, ideal for organizing bulk items or storing seasonal décor.
Step outside to your own private retreat. A screened porch, spacious deck, and flagstone patio are beautifully framed by lush, mature landscaping. Perfectly positioned, this exceptional lot offers added privacy with a pipestem driveway on one side and a quiet cul-de-sac on the other. As a premium corner homesite with minimal immediate neighbors, the setting feels serene, secluded, and truly your own.
Peace of mind comes easily with major updates completed over the years of homeownership, including the roof in 2016, siding in 2016, windows replaced in 2010, a new garage door in 2017, a Carrier variable speed furnace in 2023, and a water heater in 2023.
This is more than just a home. It is a story of care, creativity, and thoughtful investment. A place where every corner has been touched with love, and it shows. Life in Cascades offers an exceptional blend of value and lifestyle, with low HOA fees and abundant amenities including five pools, tennis and pickleball courts, tot lots, and scenic trails. Just minutes away, Algonkian Regional Park adds even more to enjoy with Potomac River access, a waterpark, and an 18-hole golf course.
