About this House
NEW ON MARKET! This superb Craftsman-style home blends timeless character with modern comfort in one of the most sought-after neighborhoods, Cabin John. Exquisitely and thoughtfully created for timeless elegance, this well-appointed home achieves the perfect harmony between luxury and the comforts of everyday living. Surrounded by lush greenery, the expansive grounds offer a wealth of privacy and exclusivity like no other. The gracious floor plan flows seamlessly from indoors to out, ideal for entertaining. Thoughtfully refreshed with professional landscaping and fresh interior updates, this home is as inviting as it is impressive. Step inside to discover over 4,000 square feet of beautifully finished living space, featuring 5 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms, including a flexible layout ideal for today’s lifestyle. Three fireplaces, one gas and two wood-burning—add warmth and charm throughout. Every room speaks to quality and care: hardwood floors, abundant custom built-ins, vaulted ceilings, and expansive windows and skylights that fill the home with natural light. The gourmet kitchen boasts granite countertops, premium stainless steel appliances, and opens to a sunny breakfast area and great room. An elegant dining room, a dedicated home office, and a living room with a wood-burning fireplace offer both function and style. Upstairs, the home currently offers three spacious bedrooms, including a luxurious primary suite with vaulted ceilings and a spa-like bath. The second bedroom is a true en suite, offering its own private full bath. The third bedroom—an expansive space created by combining two original bedrooms—has a full bathroom accessed from the main hallway. If desired, this room can easily be reconfigured back into two separate bedrooms, restoring the original four-bedroom layout upstairs. The walk-out lower level features a light-filled living area with fireplace, the 5th bedroom and full bath, a bonus room with direct access to the backyard, a mud room, access to the 2-car garage equipped with built-in organizers, plus a large utility & storage room. The exterior of this home is a true outdoor oasis, perfect for hosting memorable gatherings or simply retreating from the outside world. As a bonus, the home comes with a membership to the Palisades Swim and Tennis Club—a rare and valuable perk!

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMs. McCawley is such an amazing 3rd grade teacher. She's truly changed my son's attitude towards school singlehandedly. TheClassroom atmosphere is so positive and all the children enjoy being in her classroom. The lessons are well-structured and organized. Her passion for teaching is evident, she has a strong ability to identify struggling students and bring them up to par without slowing the other students down. She's an excellent and consistent communicator with parents. Her instructional pacing is appropriate andShe seems to always find ways to add more opportunities for enrichment tasks to challenge high-achieving students. She's a perfect fit for this school and I'm so lucky that my child was fortunate to have her as a teacher.Parent Review2y ago - Walt Whitman High School

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageGrade inflation is rampant here - meaning a student who coasts looks on paper the same as an engaged student who does their best, which is unfair when they’re competing for the same college spots. Seriously, at graduation they ask students with a 3.8 or higher to rise, and 3/4 of the kids stand!Parent Review2y ago - Thomas W. Pyle Middle School

10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageHonestly, as a person that has moved around a lot, this school has been the best one yet. Most of the teachers genuinely care about you, and they create a really fun and engaging classroom environment. The counselors are amazing, and I had a lot of friends going through things that got tons of support from counselors and teachers. It’s a nice school and honestly Exept for a select few has a lot of really amazing people.Student Review1mo ago
