Property Description
Welcome to 8817 Gateshead Road, where you will discover so much more than the charming curb-appeal may reveal upon first glance! Beautifully updated and meticulously maintained by long-term devoted stewards, you will be delighted with the generously sized rooms and thoughtful reconfiguration of the original floorplan, which maximizes the living space to it's most optimal design. A beautiful flagstone walkway leads you to the welcoming front entry, with inviting slate-floored foyer. Once inside, you will begin to realize that the home is so much larger than it appears from the street. Hardwood floors lure you through to the spacious main level living room with crown molding and large windows overlooking the peaceful and private backyard. This level boasts a total of four bedrooms and THREE FULL baths (with a FOURTH FULL bath on the lower level). The expansive primary suite features a dedicated office overlooking the freshly landscaped front yard, an attached renovated primary bathroom with glass-enclosed walk-in shower and dual showerheads, multiple closets and built-in storage, a delightful Trex deck with views of the backyard, and gleaming hardwood floors. Three additional bedrooms (two with carpet, hardwoods underneath, and one with whimsical painted hardwoods) are generously sized with ample closet space, including one with an updated ensuite bath. The third full bath on this level is conveniently located for the remaining two bedrooms to share.
The lower level is the heart of the home with access to the picturesque shaded brick patio that sits underneath the most beautiful canopy of mature trees. The updated kitchen with custom 42" white cabinets, granite counters, tile backsplash, and newer stainless steel appliances (including a five burner Frigidaire gas stove and French door refrigerator) is the perfect place to test out your culinary adventures. Carrying your groceries in has never been easier, as you can enter the kitchen directly from your oversized carport! The English kitchen opens to the dining room with built-in desk, tile floors, custom built-in display shelves, and storage cabinets; as well as a cozy bay window seat with views of the backyard - perfect for snuggling up on an enjoying your morning coffee. The wood-burning, brick facade fireplace, newly installed recessed lights, and architectural details such as chair rail and wainscoting create the perfect comfortable family room that opens to the great outdoors. A full bath and laundry room with additional storage and room for a workshop, complete the lower level.
Freshly painted throughout with many upgraded lighting fixtures, including the newly installed recessed lighting in both the living and family rooms, and nearly all the major systems replaced within the past 10 years (including new sewer line & main water line) this home is the epitome of move-in ready!
Situated on an idyllic .7 acre wooded lot. You really can have the best of both worlds: conveniently located near several commuter routes with access to DC in less than 30 minutes, AND have the peaceful suburban retreat of your dreams.
