About the Listing COMPASS1 - 3293456
Set deeply back from coveted Gravers Lane, this unique home offers the elusive combination of "Top of the Hill" convenience and complete, immersive privacy, defined by an extraordinary quarter-acre garden oasis that is truly rare for a home of this manageable scale. Functioning like a private, four-season treehouse where the home's ample windows frame spectacular views of nature at every turn, this meticulously cared-for home, one of the last of the storied Woodward builds, is a true gardener’s paradise that feels blissfully disconnected from the outside world. Wander down the long stone path from Gravers Lane, flanked by lush plantings and a striking paperbark maple tree, to arrive at the home's entrance. The seamless connection between the interior and these gorgeous grounds is established on the main level, where a roomy foyer with a convenient coat closet and powder room leads to an open-layout living and dining space. The living room features two walls of striking windows which frame the lush landscape, and a cozy gas fireplace surrounded by custom built-in shelving. Just steps away, the ample dining area transitions beautifully to the outdoors via French doors, leading to a stone-paved side patio perfectly positioned for al fresco dining or quiet afternoons lounging beneath the weeping cherry tree. The recently refreshed kitchen is well-equipped with brand new stainless steel appliances, and was utilized as the home kitchen of a professional chef. A convenient door opens right out to a beautiful brick-paved patio, perfect for grilling. Upstairs, the home's elevated treehouse vibe comes alive across three bright bedrooms that offer sweeping views of the canopy and garden below, including a serene primary suite with an en suite bathroom and a second full bath off the hallway. The finished lower level functions beautifully as a rec room or fitness space, directly adjacent to a clean, dry utility area, dedicated laundry room, and a large storage pantry equipped with wine storage. Back outside, the expansive, street-to-street grounds slope gently behind the house, weaving together a lush tapestry of mature shade plants, Japanese maples, hydrangeas, hostas, and more. At the rear of the home, a meandering path is anchored by a stately Katsura tree at its center. Heavy foliage and mature forsythia block the rear cul-de-sac of Sunrise Lane from view for most of the year, amplifying the sense of total seclusion. Conveniently located just to the side of the home, a detached garage offers ample space for parking, plus a full second level for storage. The driveway can host two additional vehicles. 126 W Gravers Lane is a peaceful, plant-filled sanctuary that feels worlds away from everything, yet is positioned just an easy stroll from the charming bustle, boutiques, and dining of Germantown Avenue.
