Some homes are built. This one was crafted.

Tucked at the end of a quiet street in sought-after Alcova Heights, this stunning Nordic-inspired custom home stops you in your tracks before you even walk through the door. The crisp white exterior, dramatic gabled rooflines, and bold black-framed windows make a statement that's equal parts architectural and effortlessly cool.

Step inside and the design only gets better. The chef's kitchen is the heart of the home -- anchored by a one-of-a-kind layered waterfall countertop that you genuinely won't find anywhere else. Framed by dramatic wall-to-wall windows, it looks out over the home's secluded corner setting, drawing in soft natural light and a sense of privacy that elevates everyday living from hosting a dinner party, to savoring a quiet morning cup of coffee. Custom brass fixtures, Moroccan and marble tile, and thoughtful built-ins carry throughout, giving every room that "did they hire a designer for this?" feeling.

The primary bath is in a category of its own -- a light-filled wet room wrapped in floor-to-ceiling tile that feels more like a luxury treehouse retreat than a bathroom. You may never want to leave.

Outside, the fully fenced yard with an automatic driveway gate and irrigation system, is ready for everything -- summer evenings under string lights, kids on the in-ground trampoline and play set, and weekend gatherings on the patio. And the location? Unbeatable. Open green space next door, a scenic creekside trail to the neighborhood park right across the street, and Washington, DC just minutes away.

The cherry on top: a fully separate modern apartment above the garage with its own private entrance, ideal for rental income, guests, in-laws, or a work-from-home setup that actually feels like getting away from it all.

Homes like this don't come around often. Design-forward, move-in ready, and perfectly positioned, this is the one.
