Welcome to this stunning 7,566 square foot brick estate, ideally positioned on a private, flat 2.05-acre lot in one of Darnestown’s most exclusive and peaceful locations. Backing directly to Muddy Branch State Park, this impressive residence offers the perfect blend of refined elegance, generous living spaces, and natural beauty. From the moment you enter the grand two-story foyer, you’ll appreciate the craftsmanship and thoughtful design throughout. With 4,693 square feet above grade, the home features an expansive floorplan with a huge gourmet kitchen, formal living and dining rooms with hardwood floors, a spacious sunroom, and a large private office with custom built-in bookshelves and wood shutters. The heart of the home is the updated gourmet kitchen—complete with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances (double ovens, six burner cooktop), a center island, gas cooking, and a large table space area ideal for everyday meals or entertaining. The adjacent family room is expansive and inviting, with a cozy fireplace and access to the flagstone patio overlooking parkland—creating a private, tranquil outdoor escape. On the main level you’ll also find an enormous formal dining room and sunroom drenched in natural light. Upstairs, there are four generously sized bedrooms, including one with an en-suite bath. The luxurious primary suite is a true retreat, featuring a tray ceiling, a sitting room, walk-in closets, and a fully renovated spa-like bath with jetted tub, frameless glass shower, and elegant finishes. The fully finished walk-up lower level is designed for entertaining and relaxation, featuring a home theater with projector and screen, a large recreation room, full wet bar, bonus room, luxury full bath, and an expansive storage area with daylight access through double doors and sunlight cascades through large windows. Additional features include four sides brick construction, zoned heating and A/C, custom wood shutters, and a spacious 3-car side-load garage, and Generac gas generator to ensure you never lose power. This is a rare opportunity to own a luxury estate that offers both privacy and proximity to nature—yet remains just minutes from major commuter routes, shopping, and top schools.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
