What a beautiful exception we proudly present - 1312 Merchant Lane in McLean's Clearview Manor is unlike any home in Northern Virginia, a surprising offering certainly worth your time and serious consideration! I have watched the owners' talents and passions shine through with their smart decisions and exciting renovation, detailed in the brochure and featured in two Summer 2026 design magazines. The short video tour, sure to delight, accompanies this listing to visually highlight the extensive work accomplished over two years, inside and out. The successful expansion, as well as the landscaping and hardscaping work, shows off the craftsmanship the owners insisted upon and participated in. Now, if owning 3.6 acres of parklike grounds wrapping a striking home featuring space, style, privacy, location and comfort sounds intriguing, simply call for a private tour. Bring your friends and family members along to see how well everyone would fit into your new lifestyle! Then fire up the grill . . . What makes it so different, you ask? Beyond the striking, reimagined residence, see the large woodworking, antique car restoration or lapidary workshop building, separate 1-bedroom apartment for long-term guests or family, the fish and frog-filled Grace Pond, and the rolling lawn for croquet or touch football. And to say “and so much more,” is an understatement since I'm not mentioning the infinity pool, hot tub, cold plunge, fire ” pit, outdoor grilling kitchen and lounge, and music room - early congratulations to all ready to make this a fun, forever home. Look at your calendar and plan a visit sometime very soon!
