A Thoughtful Restoration | Historic Belle Haven Colonial with Water Views Originally built in 1929, this stately Center Hall Colonial has been reimagined through a meticulous 16-month restoration and expansion, uniting timeless architectural craftsmanship with the finest in modern luxury. Set in the prestigious Belle Haven neighborhood, this masonry residence showcases restored millwork, graceful original arches, and bespoke designer finishes throughout—every element thoughtfully curated for elegant living and effortless entertaining. Spanning over 6,300 finished square feet across four fully finished levels, the home features formal living and dining rooms, an open-concept kitchen and family room, and a light-filled sunroom or game room. Six bedrooms, five and a half baths, and two home offices provide flexible living space, while the primary suite offers a private Ipe river-view terrace with Chippendale-style railing, dual walk-in closets, a sitting room or office, and a luxurious marble bath. At the heart of the home, the chef’s kitchen—designed by St. Clair Kitchens—combines artistry and function with custom inset cabinetry, a 100-inch walnut island, and dramatic 2.5-inch Calcutta quartz countertops finished with a coved Dupont edge and matching floating shelves. Top-tier appliances include a 48-inch gas range, 42-inch French-door refrigerator, dual dishwashers, three sinks, an ice maker, and a separate wine refrigerator. The home’s exterior balances historic charm and refined modern detail with original brick masonry, nickel-gap cement siding, and stone retaining walls accented by low-voltage lighting. Additional highlights include a stamped-concrete driveway, cocktail terrace, white picket fence, oversized gutters, and year-round Potomac River views. Inside, the craftsmanship continues with white oak flooring, 1 ¾-inch solid-core doors, 9-inch baseboards, oversized 5-inch window and door casings, and 7-inch, two-piece crown molding. Recessed panel wainscoting enriches the foyer, staircase, and dining room, while designer lighting adds warmth and sophistication throughout. The bedroom-level laundry room includes a folding station, quartz counters, sink, and Oslo Oak cabinetry. The fourth-level retreat—highlighted by original pine floors, dormer windows, skylights, and a window bench—adds architectural character and flexibility. Every system has been completely renewed, including dual HVAC units, a new hot water heater, 200-amp electrical service, recessed lighting, and Decora switches. Lincoln wood double-pane windows grace the first and second floors, complemented by restored original specialty windows on the upper levels. The two-car garage is equally refined, featuring a custom double bay door, 10-foot ceilings ideal for a golf simulator, pull-down attic storage, original slate roof, and gas line rough-in for a future outdoor kitchen or grill. The landscape, designed by Campbell & Ferrara, completes the property with mature boxwoods, spruce, maple, ornamental grasses, and rose bushes, creating an elegant, established setting befitting this exceptional Belle Haven address. Open Saturday 10/11 from 1-3 PM.
