*(Open Sat. 1-3PM, Sun 1-4PM)*Welcome to The Modern Cottage on Jackson St that came to life under the dual vision of premier builder BCN and the current sellers. This transitional design offers 5200 square feet on three levels and sits on an impressive .20 acres in Ashton Heights (a generous size for this neighborhood). Built in 2011 and since modernized, one can enjoy indoor-outdoor entertaining with three different outdoor spaces; a sweeping front porch, a backyard screened porch and a private flagstone patio. Once inside the foyer, the main level's plan and design maximizes the use of traditional molding and transitional yet timeless finishes. The main living space features a library or living room with floor to ceiling built-ins, formal dining room with butler's pantry with wine fridge, a gracious great room with a beautiful floating gas fireplace flanked by built-ins, an oversized walk-in pantry with second fridge, a private home office, mudroom and powder room. The kitchen is sun drenched from the wall of windows along the backside of the house and offers a large center island, wolf six burner range and hood, beverage fridge, stainless steel appliances, modern lighting, eat-in kitchen table space, and access to the screened in porch. An inviting openness between the kitchen and living areas allows life to flow easily from one moment to the next. On the upper level you will find the Primary Suite retreat with a modern luxuriant bath and spacious walk-in closet with built-in closet system. The luxuriant spa bath is complete with a soaking tub, large shower, a water closet, and dual vanities. Also on the upper level are three additional bedrooms, and two full baths. The lower level houses a large entertainment room with wet bar and 2nd beverage fridge, playroom, exercise room, 5th bedroom, 4th full bathroom and two storage rooms. Other features include custom window treatments, built-in speakers, gorgeous hardwood floors, generator "ready" hook-up, lots of storage, new designer paint, and updated light fixtures. Sited beautifully on a landscaped .20 acre lot, the home has a fully fenced rear yard, a long driveway that can park three cars, a detached one car garage with custom shelving and storage, a swing set and plenty of yard for a soccer pitch. Located on the desirable Jackson Street in Ashton Heights, this home is only a couple of blocks to the Clarendon Metro, Trader Joes, boutique fitness gyms, coffee shops and enjoyable restaurants.
