We've brought this spectacular home back to the market after a MASSIVE price reduction. So give us a call and arrange a visit to see this fantastic home. We are thrilled to list this 5 bedroom, 5 bathroom craftsman just in time for the Spring market! This newer construction home has it all: 3/3 upstairs (including the Primary Suite), open kitchen/ living area with stacked stone fireplace, huge basement with bedroom/bathroom suite, as well as an exercise/ playroom and office space. And to top it off, there is an attached THREE car garage, which is a rare find in town. We've have had our contractor go over this home with a fine tooth comb, and the result is stunning: the entire interior and exterior of the home has been repainted, wood trim repaired/replaced, hardwood floors refinished, and systems serviced/updated. Our location just couldn't be better; just blocks from the heart of the Virginia Highland shopping district and right across the street from Ash coffee! This is Intown living at its best.

Tucked quietly into Virginia-Highland, 1224 Stillwood Drive NE feels like a retreat disguised as a city home. Recently refinished with modern finishes, the house opens with an easy, natural flow-living room, dining room, kitchen, and deck all connected in a way that makes entertaining feel effortless rather than staged. The back porch is the heartbeat of the home: suspended high enough to feel immersed in trees and privacy, large enough to host with ease, and accompanied by the soft sound of a trickling waterfall below. Mornings invite coffee and stillness; evenings stretch into wine-filled gatherings that linger. Inside, light moves freely through the home, highlighting an open living space and a versatile front room that works beautifully as a sunlit office or creative retreat-separate enough to focus, yet never feeling removed from the rest of the house. The kitchen, perched among outdoor greenery, is ready for the inner chef in you, while the bedrooms offer flexibility for guests, work, or quiet escape. Below, an unfinished basement quietly promises future potential, whether expanded living space, studio, gym, or something entirely your own. This house underwent extensive updates and renovation to preserve history, yet create a new home for you. Full kitchen renovation including cabinets, solid surfaces, appliances, and hood. New laundry closet with installation, and washer/dryer are included. Features new HVAC System and Ductwork, new gas line installation, new and updated plumbing, updated electrical. Repaired and improved foundation, footings and supports to begin the next 95 years. New hardwood floor installation, new framing and drywall/tile where needed throughout home. For comfort and future utility savings, all attic insulation was replaced, and a new basement water vapor barrier installed. The exterior brick and siding were fully repaired, with refreshed full exterior paint and deck stain. In the front yard you will impress your guests with gas lighting fixtures, new landscaping, irrigation, bluestone walkway and patio; and you have room to personalize the back yard with play equipment, pool or a swim spa. Perfectly positioned near the shops, restaurants, and energy of Virginia-Highland, this home offers a rare balance: close to everything, yet tucked away enough to feel truly personal. 1224 Stillwood Drive NE is an invitation to slow mornings, easy hosting, and a backyard that feels worlds away-without ever leaving the city. Welcome to your new home!
