One Acre McLean Prime Location Lot with Tear-Down As-Is Property Amidst Multi-Million $ Estates
Incredibly Priced At $899,900
$899,900
Approximately 1 acre, 43,560 square feet, in a roughly square configuration,gently sloped from the South front Bellview (formerly Hitaffer) Road low elevation to the high North property line. The primary building site offers a pastoral view of the property and to an equestrian complex across Bellview Road that spans the entire road frontage of 213.99 feet. The property is fenced on three (North, West and South) sides, with the East side property line open to an easement for an adjacent property driveway. The existing chain link fence is not in keeping with the vernacular, and its removal or replacement with complimentary fencing design is encouraged. The approximate Northern-most third of the property is composed of a high level plateau, offering the possibility for multi-level access to a new building that would be sited to straddle the resulting ridge. Any contemplation improvements might include a careful study of possible integration of new building into site, to include options for additional grading, terracing of the site slope, and proper solar orientation. The existing slope affords the opportunity to design a building that could minimize Northern exposure and maximize Southern exposure, providing additional benefit of advantageous natural solar orientation and opportunities for passive solar design.
The existing improvement is a single-family dwelling, two-story frame structure of 1964. The existing dwelling is a likely candidate for demolition to prepare the site for a new dwelling, although the existing foundation may be considered for possible reuse as part of a new project. If reuse is to be considered, it is recommended that a structural engineer be consulted in conjunction with any proposed architectural schematic designs.
The wide site offers the possibility of a circular drive accessed to and from Bellview Road. The site offers a number of existing mature trees, with the Northeast location of the lost prominent of the deciduous trees providing further potential for the careful siting of a new dwelling to take advantage of shade and other design amenities. Existing ground percolation tests allow for improvements to include a septic system to accommodate a maximum of a four-bedroom dwelling. A small area of the low Southern portion of the site might be considered for use as a pond for storm water retention and possible irrigation.
Opportunities for sustainable “green” building design and implementation are available and encouraged. (Architectural professional review provided by ARCHITETC, Georgetown, Washington D.C.; call Carina for more info)
