One of a kind “Beech Hill” is a superbly built custom home nestled on 17 magical acres in Leesburg Virginia. The internet service is FIOS and the property is only 3 miles to historic downtown Leesburg. Dulles International Airport is only 19 miles away. Sheltered by towering trees, the home at Beech Hill is the epitome of “Curb Appeal”.

A brick walk delivers you at the gracious front door with portico. The circular driveway reveals mature landscaping – boxwoods, azalea, hollies, just to name a few, and to the side of the home is a breathtaking board fenced field ready for your horses or any number of outdoor hobbies. The home was built by Tri County Construction, a revered Loudoun County home builder known for producing some of the most beautiful homes in Loudoun County and this home is no exception. While it was built only just a few years ago in 1986, you would never know it. The original owners created an ” New Old Home” with the charm and authentic character of yesteryear coupled with today’s advancements in newer construction. Inside this elegant yet unassuming home you will find lovely traditional features such as wood floors, pocket doors, window seats, smooth walnut handrails and crown molding adorning many of the rooms. The lofty ceilings and generous room sizes accommodate the scale and pace of modern day living. There are grand rooms for entertaining, including a beautiful dining room and sweeping room living room with a wood burning fireplace and adjoining library.

The Kitchen's Keeping Room is surrounded by windows with beautiful views and makes casual dining a fun and special event. The dramatic curved staircase leads to four very spacious bedrooms and 3 full baths, including a private upper-level guest suite on the second upper level. The laundry and mud room are located on the main level as well as a spacious powder room . The construction at Beech Hill is excellent, featuring cedar siding and an abundance of Marvin windows. The grounds are equally fantastic, with wonderful hardscape including stone and brick accents around the home and a lovely rear terrace. Over the years, the family's Steeplechase horses got their start galloping up the hill in the pasture . A three-stall stable and hay shed/run-in await the next owners’ horses, goats, or llamas. There is an additional single car tractor garage to make for a total of 5 garage spaces.
