Escape to the magical and peaceful setting at 6900 Petworth Road. Hidden away amongst a lush, private setting is a stately, beautifully maintained brick colonial on one of the ten largest lots in Stoneleigh, offering a distinctive blend of historic character, modern luxury, and generous scale. All four levels of this move-in-ready home feature high-end systems, extensive renovations, and thoughtful finishes. Inside, center-hall proportions, high ceilings, and original 1926 touches — crystal chandeliers, a stained-glass landing, heart pine, and inlaid hardwood floors — meet a century of careful stewardship.
The main level showcases a tastefully updated kitchen with a professional Thor gas range, Monogram dishwasher, Calacatta Belrose quartz counters, refinished cabinetry, and original glass-front butler's pantry, plus a stylishly refreshed powder room and reimagined mudroom with covered radiator bench. The gracious living area features a millwork fireplace surround with Mendota gas insert, built-in bookcases, and an adjoining window-wrapped sunroom/playroom through two sets of French doors. Across the hall, fluted columns open to a true dining room, while a large three-season screened porch with built-in infrared Infratech heaters extends main-level outdoor living past summer.
Upper levels offer five bedrooms, including a renovated primary suite with a serene spa bath featuring a zero-threshold shower, a skylit soaking tub, and designer finishes, and another bedroom with a fitted walk-in closet. Additional baths are equally refined, led by a marble hall bath with double vanity.
The finished lower level offers a wet bar with wine refrigerator, family/media room, full bath, laundry suite, and built-in bookshelf and reading nook. Outdoors, an expansive two-level deck with retractable pergola, mature specimen trees, perennial gardens that bloom spring through fall, hardscaping, fenced yard, and outdoor lighting create a year-round retreat, while the original matching brick two-car garage completes the home.
Major system upgrades include dual-zone high-velocity central air, a Navien tankless water heater, integrated audio wiring and GoldenEar and Paradigm in-ceiling speakers, weatherization and insulation, a 2013 natural gas boiler, and a 30-year roof (2010).
Set on an exceptional, level corner lot, the home enjoys a genuine sense of space in one of the area's most coveted neighborhoods, known for its tree-lined streets, close-knit community, and year-round social events. The cherished neighborhood pool and schools, elementary through high, are all within a short walk, along with coffee, dining, a gym, and everyday shops. With just six owners in a century — original blueprints convey to the seventh —homes like this rarely come to market. Meticulously improved and truly turnkey, with exceptional attention to detail inside and out — this is Stoneleigh living at its finest, ready for your next chapter.
