4374 ISLAND VIEW LN King George, VA 22485

Welcome to 4374 Island View Lane, located in The Meadows, approximately 6 miles from Dahlgren. Situated on just under 18 acres, this property is unlike anything else on the market. Known as the Crabapple Cottage, this home was designed by architect John Tee for Southern Living and was known as their Plan of the Year. This spectacular home awaits you down a long, paved private driveway leading to a three-car garage, each with a separate door. From the deep, brick front porch, step through the front door and youll immediately recognize that this home is truly one of a kind. From the wide plank hard-wood flooring to the large chandelier adorning the foyer, no detail has been overlooked. To your right youll notice the formal dining room with crown molding and an elegant ceiling medallion framing a gorgeous crystal chandelier. With easy kitchen access, its ideal for entertaining. In the kitchen, buyers will appreciate custom knotty alder wood cabinets, truly custom high-end stainless-steel appliances, and accentuating granite countertops. The kitchen also boasts a quaint, recessed breakfast nook allowing you to enjoy breakfast while taking in the gardens. Adjacent the kitchen, step into the keeping room, with a gas fireplace, exposed beams, and oversized windows for plenty of natural light. Enter the living room and you will immediately be struck by the genuine stone gas fireplace with Rams head mantle. Other accents include custom lighting fixtures, drapery, and hardwood cathedral ceilings. The primary bedroom suite features access to the screened-in brick back porch, crown molding, and a recessed nook ideal for a wardrobe. There youll also find two very spacious walk-in closets, measuring nearly 80 square feet each, as well as two shoe closets. Once inside the primary bathroom, youll notice the custom, comfort-height granite countertops, soaking tub, stall shower and convenient, large linen closet. Head upstairs and youll find three more bedrooms, one with a full bath and walk-in closet, the other two sharing a full bath. There is also a sitting room as well as a balcony overlooking the living room and easy attic access. Also on the upper level is a large office with a separate storage room. As you enter the basement, youll see endless opportunities. There is plenty of storage, a workshop, a 5th bedroom (Not to Code) with full bathroom, and a safe room with a steel door set in concrete. Nearby, yet a safe distance from the house youll find the whole-house propane-fueled generator. Never fear a storm again knowing your HVAC and electronics will continue to operate as will your refrigerator and freezer. The stone patio beyond the screened porch invites a fire pit or crab pickin. The neighborhood would warmly welcome another equestrian as theres ample room for a barn, pasture and paddock. Outdoorsmen will enjoy direct access to Chotank Creek via a short walk to the rear of the home or by use of the private community dock, as well as enjoy the abundance of turkey, deer and other wildlife and a small target range on the property. A home like this only comes around once every few years. Dont miss your opportunity to own something truly special.
