Property Description

Set on a bucolic two-acre estate behind wrought iron gates along one of Vienna’s most distinguished corridors, 1521 Hunter Mill Road is a residence of uncommon scale, craftsmanship, and sophistication. A long paver driveway framed by manicured landscaping creates a formidable approach to the central motor court revolving around an elaborate fountain. Classic architectural symmetry, a slate roof, expansive terraces, and a resort-caliber outdoor environment establish a sense of arrival and permanence. A residence exuding grandeur and recently enhanced with thoughtful modern upgrades, the estate offers more than 15,000 square feet of luxury across the main residence and pool house, each space designed to elevate daily living and lavish entertaining. Inside, a soaring two-story grand foyer lined with gleaming inlaid marble floors beneath a shimmering crystal chandelier introduces a generously proportioned floor plan. The space flows effortlessly ahead into the dramatic two-story great room crowned by an 18-foot cathedral ceiling. Formal spaces include richly appointed embassy sized living and dining rooms, as well as a dignified library, balanced by casual gathering areas. Natural light floods through UV-tinted windows along the rear elevation, framing views of the terraces and grounds while protecting interiors from the elements. At the heart of the home lies a chef’s kitchen. Fully reimagined in 2023, the transitional space is both functional and aesthetically cutting edge, appointed with quartz countertops, top-of-the-line Wolf appliances, a butler’s pantry, and a walk-in pantry, all adjoining a two-story breakfast room overlooking the pool terrace. The main-level primary suite is a private refuge, featuring a serene sitting room, dual walk-in closets, and a spa-inspired marble bath. Upstairs, five additional bedroom suites, each with its own full bath, including a private guest suite or tucked away office, offer exceptional comfort. A private guest suite on the uppermost level further enhances multigenerational flexibility or telecommuting capacity. Not so much an entertainer’s delight as it is an independent destination, the lower level’s roster of resort-like amenities includes a professional home cinema, multiple recreation and game rooms, billiards room, fitness center, and sauna. The level also features walk-out access to the backyard, allowing indoor leisure spaces to flow seamlessly into the estate’s outdoor environment. A full suite with private bath, extensive storage and utility rooms, and dedicated media and equipment spaces ensure the level is both functional and indulgent. Complementary culinary spaces on the lower level include a catering kitchen, wet bar, and a kitchenette in the in-law suite, completing the estate’s ethos of comprehensive hospitality. Modern systems seamlessly support the property’s scale. Multiple newer HVAC units, a Lutron smart lighting system, and upgraded infrastructure provide convenience, efficiency, and peace of mind. A three-car garage, supplemented by an additional single-bay garage, completes the offering. Out back, an expansive elevated stone terrace overlooks an immense manicured, level rear lawn with unbroken sightlines, granting a sensation of seclusion within a close-in location. At the center is a large heated lap pool and accompanying semicircular hot tub. An outdoor kitchen pavilion extends the living experience outdoors, creating a sanctuary for al fresco dining. An enclosed pool house is self sufficient, showcasing its own kitchenette and living space that can fully open onto the terrace to blur the lines between indoor and outdoor living. 1521 Hunter Mill Road is a rare opportunity as an estate which blends grand architectural scale with modern livability, luxurious amenities, and a resort-like outdoor environment — all within minutes of the vibrant heart of Vienna, Tysons, and the Capital Region — for a truly unparalleled lifestyle.
