About This Property
Some houses simply give you rooms. This one gives you an entirely
different way to live. Designed by architect Ken Bonner, whose work
helped shape Reston's earliest residential identity, Wedge Drive is
a true piece of local history and was notably featured in the 2019
Reston Home Tour. Bonner became known for creating homes around
sunlight, mature trees and the natural contours of the land rather
than forcing nature out of the way, and you can feel that
philosophy here. Brick walls, warm wood, oversized windows and
unexpected architectural details make it clear this was never meant
to look like every other house. The main level begins with a family
room wrapped in windows, centered around a gas fireplace and
finished with a clever hidden wall system that keeps everything
streamlined. The kitchen is enormous, with an island made for quiet
breakfasts, holiday gatherings and everything in between, along
with chef-grade stainless appliances, a cooktop, wall ovens,
built-in microwave and an incredible amount of storage hidden
behind Italian cabinetry. Just beyond it is a true bar with
seating, a beverage refrigerator and separate wine refrigerator,
while the dining room has an illuminated garden wall that brings
something living and unexpected into the space. Then there is the
office, although calling it an office barely does it justice. Two
brick walls, large-format porcelain tile in a herringbone pattern,
a cathedral wood ceiling and an open catwalk above give it the
feeling of a private city loft hidden in the woods. Two sliding
glass doors create a wall of glass and open directly to the
backyard, so even a workday can feel connected to the outdoors. And
that backyard deserves its own story. The deck stretches across the
rear of the house beneath towering trees, with places to dine,
gather, sit by the fire or slip into the hot tub, while winding
paths lead through layered gardens to a secluded firepit tucked
into the trees. At night, landscape lighting glows beneath the
canopy and the house becomes the backdrop to what feels like a
private woodland retreat. Back inside, contemporary open stairs
rise between brick walls to the upper level, where hardwood floors
continue throughout. The primary bedroom is surrounded by windows
on two sides and has its own wood-burning fireplace, a European
closet system and a sitting area that can become a reading corner,
private office, place for morning coffee or simply somewhere to
close the door and breathe. The primary bath pairs rich soft-close
cabinetry and exotic granite with moodier tile and a seamless glass
shower with a built-in seat and niche. Down the hall is a generous
secondary bedroom, while the third bedroom has been transformed
into a dressing room worthy of Barbie herself, complete with a
makeup vanity, custom built-ins and incredible closet storage. An
upper-level laundry room with built-ins makes daily life easier.
The lower level adds even more flexibility with a spacious rec
room, Murphy bed for overnight guests, sitting area, built-ins, an
updated full bath, substantial storage and a second oversized
laundry room that also works beautifully as a mudroom and utility
space. A two-car garage with custom doors and tile floor completes
the home, although the Porsches are not included. The location
makes daily life just as easy. Reston Station is about a mile away
with Metro access, restaurants, cafes, fitness, JW Marriott, and
more, while Reston Town Center is only minutes away. Lake Anne
Plaza is walkable for lakeside dining, coffee, the farmers market,
events and access to the lake. Beyond that, Reston gives you miles
of trails, pools, lakes, tennis, pickleball, parks and a year-round
calendar of events. This is not a house that can be fully
understood by counting bedrooms and bathrooms. It is a home filled
with light, texture, creativity and places that make everyday life
feel a little more interesting, all set beneath the trees in a way
that feels unmistakably Reston.
