Hidden away on a private street, in a quiet community just a stones throw away from the Potomac River, 130 River Park lane is the quintessential Great Falls colonial. Grand in all proportions, the estate boasts over 10,000 finished square feet of luxurious living space encased within its sturdy brick facade. The winding, tree-lined driveway gradually reveals an elegantly symmetrical elevation with concrete trim and a gracefully arched Palladian window framed by columns and crowning the double door entry. Stepping inside reveals a palatial greeting hall that introduces a gracious floor plan meticulously updated over the years. Inlaid marble floors underfoot reflect speckles of light from the chandelier twinkling overhead. Embassy-sized formal living and dining rooms anchor the main reception area on both sides and are ample in scale to accommodate even the grandest of evening festivities. Immediately ahead lies the great room, whose wall of windows looks out into the whimsical tree canopy in the distance. The informal spaces of the home are part of a new addition and are ideally suited to cater to a modern lifestyle. A chic double-sided linear fireplace wall separates the morning tea area from the breakfast room, which has direct outdoor access and is open to the grand family room, whose raised coffered ceilings and large picture windows establish an ethereal ambiance. The kitchen is a complete showstopper. Twin islands, full-height cabinets, professional-grade Wolf/Sub-Zero/Miele appliances, and stunning matching quartzite countertops and backsplash create what would be any chef's dream. Twelve-foot ceilings throughout, a gentleman's library, a stunning private conservatory, and a thoughtfully designed mudroom complete the main level. At the top of the sweeping staircase, through double doors, is the owner's retreat. A cozy gas fireplace, separate walk-in closets, and a newly renovated spa-inspired marble bath make it a real oasis. The secondary bedrooms are ample in scale and served by equally spacious baths. The walkout lower level is an entertainer's dream, boasting a billiards room and a stylish full-service wet bar complete with a glass-enclosed wine cellar. A home fitness center, multiple office areas, abundant natural light, and additional storage space complete the amenities. Stepping outside from the heated screened-in porch reveals a spacious patio area with an outdoor kitchen and alfresco dining space. Further beyond lies a picturesque, large flat grassy expanse extending into the trees. Behind the scenes, new mechanical systems, a recently replaced roof, full house generator, extensive water purification system, and comprehensive hardscaping with outdoor lighting ensure the highest standards of living. With its private path leading to the Potomac River and incomparable construction quality, 130 River Park Lane is a hidden gem fit for the most discerning home buyer.
