Nestled within the highly sought after Chain Bridge Woods section of Chesterbrook Woods, this enchanting three-level colonial is just one stoplight to DC and exudes storybook charm at every turn. Its exterior, a combination of brick with stone accents, invites you into a world of timeless elegance. A pitched roof, punctuated by arched windows, adds whimsy to the silhouette, while a wide welcoming front porch beckons you to step inside.

As you enter through the arched doorway, you're greeted by an interior that seamlessly blends classic colonial architecture with cottage-inspired details. The foyer boasts gleaming hardwood floors that lead you toward the heart of the home. To your right, a large living room awaits, adorned with a brick fireplace framed by a wooden mantel, perfect for receiving guests or curling up with a good book on chilly evenings.

Across from the Living Room, the formal Dining Room offers an elegant space for gathering with loved ones. Sunlight filters through the large picture window, casting a warm glow over the hardwood floors and highlighting the intricate moldings that adorn the walls. 

The Kitchen combines modern amenities with old-world charm. Crisp white cabinetry, black and white tile flooring and stainless steel appliances create a bright and inviting atmosphere, while a dual corner sink and white solid surface countertops add practical appeal. A cozy breakfast nook nestled by a bay window provides the perfect spot to savor morning coffee and soak in views of the tranquil front yard.

A wide staircase descends from the Kitchen into the expansive Family Room with high ceilings.   Exposed wooden beams and an impressive floor-to-ceiling natural stone fireplace add character to the room, while oversized windows frame views of the serene outdoor landscape.  A sliding glass door leads to a picturesque patio and large flat fenced-in backyard with mature plantings. 

Upstairs, the charm continues with five generous bedrooms, all with hardwood floors and large windows, each offering its own ample layout. The master suite is accessed via a private hall and boasts a cozy sitting area with a wood burning fireplace and a large en-suite bath with dual vanities, private water closet, soaking tub and shower.  Four additional bedrooms and two full hall baths complete the Upper Level.

The lower level of the home offers even more living space.  This area with built-in bookshelves and a cozy fireplace is ideal for a recreation room, playroom, or home office .  A full bath, ample storage closets, direct access to the Garage and an unfinished storage area complete the Lower Level.

With its blend of timeless architecture, spacious interiors, and picturesque surroundings, this three-level brick colonial with storybook charm offers a truly magical place to call home.
