Wow! Every inch of this home has been thoughtfully updated, creating a warm, move-in ready space that blends classic character with high-end modern comfort. Inside, nearly all of the original windows have been replaced with Marvin vinyl clad wood windows, enhancing energy efficiency and natural light throughout the home. The… Read More Family Room was renovated in 2005 and refreshed again in 2020, and now features a floor to ceiling stone surround with gas fireplace, a Pella bay window, Pella French wood sliding glass door, circle top Marvin windows, and rich Maple hardwood flooring. The Kitchen was renovated in 2005 and updated again in 2025, with all new Maple cabinetry, ceramic tile flooring, recessed and undercabinet lighting, marble counters and backsplash, and updated appliances, creating a bright and functional heart of the home. A brand new Laundry Room renovation in 2025 adds everyday convenience, with ceramic tile flooring, custom cabinetry, a Quartzite countertop, cast iron sink with new faucet, marble backsplash, and recessed lighting. This is probably the prettiest Laundry/Mud Room in Herndon! The bedroom level has been transformed with be; inch Brazilian Teak hardwood flooring installed in 2015 over the stairs, second floor hallway, and all bedrooms and closets, giving the upper level a cohesive and luxurious feel. The Primary Suite Bath was fully renovated with an expanded tiled shower and custom mud pan, updated toilet, dual sink vanities with tall storage cabinet, granite counters, updated lighting and plumbing fixtures, and a new frameless shower door (scheduled for installation in December). The Hall Bath has also been renovated with a new soaking tub, ceramic tile, updated vanity and sink, plumbing and lighting fixtures, medicine cabinet, and mirror. On the main level, the Powder Room was recently refreshed with shiplap walls added, a new vanity and sink, updated lighting, and a new mirror. Additionally, the wall between the Living and Dining Rooms was opened to create better flow, with new molding, lighting, a bay window, and Maple hardwood flooring tying the spaces together. Outdoor living and major systems have been carefully upgraded as well. In 2018, a STUNNING 17 foot by 19 foot Sun Room was added, featuring a solid Mahogany floor, Cedar walls and mantle, six wall lights, multiple electrical outlets, a cathedral ceiling, EZ Breezy windows, and a gas fireplace with stone surround and TV, offering a true three season retreat. This is the room you'll entertain and relax in - never wanting to leave! Just outside is a 14 foot by 22 foot Azek composite deck with an octagonal sitting area, built in benches, and discreet outdoor lighting along the stairs and under the benches, ideal for entertaining. Stone flagstone walkways, installed in 2010 and 2018 over a poured concrete base, lead to the front door and from the driveway around the side of the house to the rear deck, providing both beauty and durability. A custom stick built 8 foot by 12 foot wood shed with window, double doors, and new shingle roof offers additional storage. The exterior and mechanical systems have been brought up to date for peace of mind. In 2023, the roof was replaced with Landmark Pro shingles, and all new plywood sheathing and roof vents were installed at the same time. In 2025, the entire exterior of the house, including trim, shutters, porch, and shed, was freshly painted. The home is served by a high efficiency Carrier Infinity HVAC system with integrated humidifier and connected digital programmable thermostat installed in 2015, and an oversized Navien tankless gas water heater installed in 2020. Together, these thoughtful upgrades reflect years of careful investment in both comfort and quality, offering the next owner a beautifully updated home inside and out.
