Sublime luxury living is in store for you in this elegant baroque mansion surrounded by 5.63 acres of land that creates your own private compound in historic Clifton, Virginia. This opulent four-level home plus a newly constructed stucco and slate carriage house offers over 17,000 square feet of conditioned space for you, your family and guests, plus your car collection! The main house begins with a soaring two-story foyer, ornate millwork, 10' ceilings, multiple fireplaces with custom mosaic surrounds, a private elevator that serves all 4 floors, five full upstairs bedroom suites plus additional sleeping quarters, six full and three half-baths in the main structure alone, a daylight walk-out lower level that offers a walk-in climate-controlled wine cellar, a catering/entertaining kitchen, and a private home movie theater. From the magazine worthy main gourmet kitchen to multiple additional cookeries throughout the property, you'll never be wanting for spaces to prepare meals and entertain! Smart house technology includes Lutron lighting and a full security system with video. There's even two professional dog-grooming facilities, one in the carriage house and the other in the main house mudroom, just in case your furry friends track dirt back from their nature gambol. The lot is fully fenced and offers your own private park with towering trees and fully groomed forest floor for walking, hiking or running, all in complete privacy. The rear deck showcases a fully equipped outdoor kitchen overlooking the handsome patio below with its massive stone fireplace, the perfect gathering spot. Want a pool? That can be added before closing for an additional fee once your design has been finalized. All this is just a mile from Main Street and the Clifton Historic District, and inside Virginia's vaunted Tech Corridor.
