Some homes are simply beautiful. Others have been so thoughtfully cared for that you can feel it the moment you arrive. This exceptional Victorian-inspired home in the heart of Countryside is one of those rare opportunities. Offering over 3,600 square feet across three beautifully finished levels, this meticulously updated 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home blends timeless character with the confidence that comes from knowing nearly every major improvement has already been completed. With more than $160,000 invested in thoughtful renovations and upgrades, this is a home you can simply move into and enjoy. The story begins with the grand wraparound front porch, an inviting place to sip your morning coffee, greet neighbors, or unwind at the end of the day. Inside, rich hardwood floors, elegant crown molding, and beautiful custom millwork create warmth and character throughout the main level. Traditional living spaces offer room for every occasion, including a formal living room, elegant dining room, private home office with custom built-in bookcases, and a cozy family room that flows seamlessly into the heart of the home. The beautifully updated kitchen features granite countertops, updated cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a bright breakfast area overlooking the backyard. Whether hosting holidays or enjoying a quiet weekday dinner, this home was designed for gathering. Just outside, the newly updated Trex deck (2025) overlooks professionally landscaped gardens, mature trees, and expansive community open space, creating a peaceful backdrop that's difficult to find. Upstairs, four spacious bedrooms provide comfortable accommodations, while the sun-filled primary suite offers a true retreat. The spa-inspired ensuite bathroom underwent a stunning $50,000+ renovation in 2022, featuring luxurious finishes, impeccable craftsmanship, and timeless design. Combined with the walk-in closet (2022) and abundant natural light, it's a space you'll look forward to ending every day in. The finished lower level with rebuilt stairs (2023) adds even more flexibility with new luxury vinyl plank flooring (2023), a spacious recreation room, an additional finished bonus room (2019) perfect for a gym, media room, or playroom, plus generous storage. What truly sets this home apart, however, is everything you don't have to worry about. The current owners have invested extensively in the home's long-term quality, replacing virtually every major system and many of the home's biggest-ticket items. In recent years, they've installed a new roof, siding, gutters, exterior paint, foundation paint, (2023) HVAC system, furnace, air conditioner, blower, water heater, (2024) windows, (2008) resurfaced and repainted the front porch, (2017) and replaced the refrigerator, oven, dishwasher, (2022) washer, and dryer (2020) . Every improvement reflects the same thoughtful approach that defines the entire home, carefully maintained, beautifully updated, and ready for its next chapter. Perfectly located in the sought-after Countryside community, residents enjoy multiple pools, tennis and pickleball courts, miles of walking trails, playgrounds, and scenic common areas. Commuters will appreciate the easy access to Route 7, Route 28, Algonkian Parkway, commuter bus lots, shopping, dining, and Dulles International Airport. Homes with this level of charm are hard to find. Homes with this level of care are even rarer. Beautifully updated, exceptionally maintained, and nestled in one of Sterling's most established neighborhoods, this is more than a home, it's the one buyers have been hoping would finally come on the market.
