Opportunity to live in the COVETED Shelter Lakes community! First time offered for sale. Homeowners tend to stay for years in Shelter Lakes because it was developed as an environmentally-sensitive, planned 5-acre community -- a truly unique, upscale neighborhood in Haymarket! This home, built by Quaker Custom Homes, offers complete privacy and serene sunsets and winter views of Bull Run Mountain. The rear porch, with rooftop deck was a great addition in 2019 and offers a 3-season room with mounted Bromic heater and Sunscape windows that collapse to instantly convert to a screened porch! The composite deck and paver patio w/ firepit were also part of the 2019 outdoor living space transformation. The interior of the home has much to offer, too! You walk in to the two-story foyer with a private office to the right, and living & dining rooms to the left. There is a side door off the dining room ready for you to build a main level primary bedroom suite or a porch/deck overlooking a future swimming pool! The gourmet kitchen at the rear of the home, with wall ovens and lots of counter space, opens to the family room w/ a wood-burning fireplace. The kitchen also has direct staircase access to the upper level. The main level has hardwood floors throughout and vinyl tile (new in 2016) in the kitchen. The views are great from every window! The upper level has 4 bedrooms, one of which can be directly accessed from the primary bedroom, so it makes a great second office. The primary bedroom includes a wood-burning fireplace, beautiful acacia wood flooring (also in 4th bedroom), and access to the upper deck above the porch, a great place to wind down in the evening! The primary BR walk-in closet is enormous and has a door to additional attic storage that is perfect for luggage and holiday decorations. The second and third bedrooms are generously sized and adjacent to the hall bath. The upper level laundry room is convenient for all. The lower level was just finished in 2021 with LVP flooring and includes rec room space, a media room, a wet bar rough-in, a full bath, and storage areas. Other improvements to this property include: new concrete front walkway, 2022; new water heater, 2020; new roof, gutters, gutter guards, copper roof over bay windows, and vinyl siding , 2017; HVAC - main/lower level units new in 2016, upper level units replaced in 2006 and serviced semi-annually; driveway paved in 2012; windows were replaced in 2003-04. The HOA includes hiking trails and stocked ponds (e.g., HOA fishing area at the pond near the front entrance). Sought-after schools. Easy access to Dulles Airport, commuter lots, and I-66. Nearby Evergreen Country Club offers golf or social/swim/tennis memberships.
