Rare opportunity to purchase a showcase residence on Lake Thoreau! Property Collective proudly presents 1926 Upper Lake Drive, a modern industrial masterpiece in Reston, Virginia. Professionally designed and featured in Lauren Liess’ second book, Down to Earth, this property has undergone a full-home renovation and expansion under the expert direction of Rill Architects and Woodhaven Contractors. The result is a one-of-a-kind lakefront retreat with breathtaking views – A peaceful escape and the perfect blend of luxury design and elevated living. The exceptional interior that has been completely reimagined to flood the home with light and bring the surrounding nature in. An industrial aesthetic complements the contemporary architecture throughout with elements like exposed steel post and beams, punched-metal railings, hickory floors, soaring windows framing views of Lake Thoreau, planked ceilings, a staircase inspired by an early-1900’s design and subtle maritime details. The high standard of quality craftsmanship and finishes is undeniable from the very first moment you step inside the home. The hardworking kitchen is beautiful and functional for both quiet daily enjoyment and lively gatherings alike. It features handpicked elements like a soapstone sink and counters, vintage factory lights, top of the line appliances and a massive butcher block island with seating for 6. A combination of white oak, glass front and richly painted cabinetry, floating shelves, a subway backsplash and an industrial brass faucet add to the collected and authentic style. The main living spaces seamlessly flow between the kitchen, great room and dining room with large sliding doors that allow life to spill outdoors. The impressive natural stone patio offers epic lake views and all the elements necessary for epic entertaining - A built-in grill, high top table seating, lounge areas, a plunge pool with waterfall feature, lighting, professional hardscaping, landscaping and private dock for direct access to countless activities on the lake.

There are delightful touches at every turn including a cozy library loft, built-in benches and shelves and relaxing daybed seating on the balcony overlooking the great room. The primary bedroom is intentionally designed to put the focus on the powerful simplicity of the architecture and views of the lake. In the primary bath, his and hers vanities with custom marble shelf backsplash details and features like heated hexagon floors, a steel and glass shower door and a separate soaking tub create a vibe of modern mixed with vintage nostalgia. Located directly on the water on Reston’s desirable Lake Thoreau and minutes to Tysons Corner, I-495 and Dulles Airport, this is a true lifestyle property that even the most discerning buyer will find to be a meaningful and unique place to call home.
