You will find it a delight to come home to El Nido Estates, your peaceful McLean neighborhood. Tucked privately into a landscaped natural setting, off the main roads, yet conveniently located…this house is a gem! Situated on a flat, 1/3 acre corner lot with plenty of space to make this house your own. Notice the beautiful hardwood floors as you enter the home; they continue throughout the main level. You will step inside the inviting and generous foyer. Find a versatile, more traditional layout when you enter through the front door. Park in the driveway and enter through the side door into the heart of the home. This addition to the original home was added in 2005, with 800 additional sq ft. on the main level and bonus attic storage overhead! This open floorplan space is immersed in natural light, and houses the kitchen, a lounge area, and one of the two half baths in the home. Note the crown molding, solid cherry cabinetry, granite counters, recessed lighting, and a gas fireplace. The main level laundry is accessed a few steps from the back door leading to your tranquil backyard. Head down the hall and you will pass the bar area, the wine/beer/drink fridge does convey. Cozy and bright, from this sitting room you will find access to 4 different areas of the home. French doors offer a second way out to the paver patio and fenced backyard. Enjoy dining al fresco? Relax on the back patio and watch the hummingbirds that return year after year. In the sitting room, you will also find fixed stairs to the attic space. With finished flooring throughout the entire attic level – including the space over the addition – this attic offers over 1800 sq ft of bonus storage space that is easily accessible. From the sitting room you will find another versatile room. Currently serving as a dining and entertaining space, this room could easily be a child’s playroom or a formal living room. Head down the hall and you will find a generous coat closet, a linen closet, and a full bath with a recently updated vanity, mirror, and lighting (2022). Continue down the hall and you will arrive at the bedrooms. The primary retreat offers an en suite full bath, and 2 large closets. While one of the closets is currently being used for extra space in lieu of a 2nd closet, it can easily be converted back to a dedicated 2nd closet. Two more bedrooms, both approximately 14’ x 10’, finish out the main level. Head downstairs to find more versatile spaces and storage areas. The lower level is the perfect getaway with a large rec room, gym area…you can fit more than one Peloton in the gym space, TONS of storage space, and a half bath!
