Perched elegantly along the 11th fairway of the Hope Valley Golf Course, this premier home offers exceptional views from its front porch, dining, and living rooms.

Four fireplaces grace the home, including two custom sandstone fireplaces crafted by sculptor Robert Milhay in his younger years, who later became the artist in residence at the Washington National Cathedral. The library fireplace boasts Dutch tile, while the living room showcases attractive marble. The preservation of original doors with their vintage hardware reflects the care and attention to detail lavished upon this property.

The two walk-in attics and the basement storage, and workshop bench, make storage and projects a delight. The house roof was replaced in 2017 by Baker Roofing with CertainTeed 50-year shingles.
