Home Details for 13259 Greenwood Church Road

Positioned behind a tree lined private drive in the Hanover countryside, Ivy Knoll is a nearly 9,000 square foot estate of uncommon intention, conceived as a complete environment where architecture, materials, technology & landscape work in concert. From the motor court, the statement is immediate. A facade of solid white rises with quiet authority, its custom stone surrounds & sills framing every arched window. An Italian fountain confirms what is already understood. After dark, soffit lighting, architectural uplighting & professionally designed landscape illumination give the estate a theatrical, refined nocturnal presence. The foyer opens onto rooms of genuine depth: a custom Italian marble fireplace in the living room, designer wallpaper in the master suite, custom cabinetry throughout. The kitchen is appointed with professional grade appliances. The master bath features a zero entry shower. A hidden pantry with a sliding library ladder is concealed behind a seamless wall. The piano room occupies the turret, its custom built in bench following the curve of the rounded walls. A walk up third floor attic expands the footprint further still. No room speaks more directly to the spirit of Ivy Knoll than the Jungle Room, opening off the kitchen. A hand painted tropical mural covers every surface, a custom octagonal bar anchors the space, & guests arriving from the back of the property move directly into the gathering without touching the rest of the home. A saltwater heated pool & spa finished in bullnose travertine, flanked by fire bowls & a fire pit table, is managed through a single integrated system. Water spouts animate the pool. A putting green with LED cups extends the grounds into the evening hours. The heated screened porch, accessible through an accordion door, closes the distance between inside & out. Forested land frames the property on all sides, with ample space to add equestrian facilities if desired. There is no comparable property in the Richmond region.
