Glorious News on the Corner …. At the intersection of fun and comfort, a sparkling classic Georgian colonial home is now on the Spring Market in the unique Mount Vernon on the Potomac neighborhood. Standing tall on almost one-half acre, this stunning Eugene Cullinane-built home was the Model for the water-privileged community of 116 houses & all of its features – curving streets, private waterfront park & delightful residents all around.
Sited with a wide front lawn & circular drive to the front, 9329 Mount Vernon Circle will again soon to be wrapped in flowering bushes, bulbs & plants. Azaleas, peonies, coleus abound – there are even magnolia trees & a dear Pollinator Garden designed to attract butterflies & birds. The huge 2-car garage + driveway are tucked around the corner out of sight. Don’t overlook the beauty of the hand-molded brick wrapping the exterior – a signature feature of the builder Cullinane, who earned his stellar reputation for quality construction.
The welcoming. columned entry opens into a wide, center hall foyer as the home spreads broadly for casual and formal living inside. 10-foot ceilings & generously-sized rooms are just the beginning – so much to see, from the egg & dart ceiling moldings with dentil molding accents & elaborate details in the public rooms, rich wood floors everywhere, recently updated eat-in kitchen and plenty of bedrooms & baths for family and visitors.
Well-placed rooms allow for parties in the family room, games in the recreation room & work spaces/offices upstairs and down. The large Primary Bedroom is blessed with a private bathroom & a hideaway sitting room for late night reading or TV watching, while the other 4 bedrooms upstairs are well-served with 2 additional bathrooms. Big windows throughout grace the home with bountiful light. The fully finished lower level offers a full bath, laundry area & mechanicals, as well as a den, storage & romping space.
The MVOP waterfront park is a beautiful walking destination after dinner. The pond, play area, updated docks & tennis/pickleball courts overlook the Potomac River. All day long, permanent picnic tables encourage you to sit & visit. The annual $1,500/home fee, which is paid to the Mount Vernon on the Potomac Citizens Association, covers professional management, the common area near entry on Ferry Landing Road, private park maintenance (including tennis courts, bathrooms, grounds and occasional MVOP gatherings), road maintenance including snow removal, trash pick-up (twice a week) & recycling (once a week). Marina slips are available for a separate fee.
