About 1181 Ballantrae Ln

Behind private wrought-iron gates in the heart of Langley Farms lies 1181 Ballantrae Lane. A modern European manor conceived as a legacy estate and executed without compromise. One of the final grand residences built in historic Ballantrae, this property occupies a setting long reserved for ambassadors, dignitaries, and global leaders who value discretion above all else. A soaring 25-foot domed foyer announces the home with quiet authority. Handcrafted ironwork, rare Murano chandeliers, and wide-plank white oak floors reflect a level of artistry increasingly difficult to replicate. Walls of glass invite natural light while framing formal garden plazas and a pool terrace inspired by the great estates of Versailles. The residence was designed to host on a diplomatic scale while remaining intimate for daily living. Formal salons and an embassy-sized dining room are supported by a show kitchen handcrafted in Italy by Bordignon Camillo, complemented by a separate professional caterer’s kitchen with UNICA cabinetry. A private elevator discreetly connects all levels, ensuring effortless living for every stage of life. Above, four expansive bedroom suites offer refined privacy and spa-quality baths. The primary suite is a sanctuary unto itself, featuring dual dressing rooms, a lavish marble bath, a private sitting room, and direct access to a terrace overlooking the estate grounds. The lower level rivals the amenities of a private members’ club. A circular entertaining salon, sophisticated lounge, private cinema, fitness center, sauna, and a professionally designed wine cellar are finished with imported Versace ceramic flooring an unmistakable statement of global luxury. Outdoors, the estate transforms into a secluded resort. A grand pool court, heated spa, pavilions, and illuminated water features create an atmosphere of calm grandeur. A four-car garage and an expansive motor court capable of accommodating up to thirty vehicles ensure seamless arrivals for private events and official functions alike. Prominently positioned at Ballantrae Lane, just minutes from Washington, D.C., 1181 Ballantrae Lane is not merely a residence; it is a rare opportunity to own a true legacy estate, built to endure and designed to be remembered.
