About this home
Introducing Eleven-Eighty-One Ballantrae Lane—a one-of-a-kind estate completed in 2018, set behind private wrought-iron gates in the heart of prestigious Langley Farms, one of McLean’s most storied and exclusive enclaves. Developed and inspired by the great manor homes of Europe, this architectural masterpiece redefines luxury living just minutes from the Nation’s Capital.
Set on one of the final open lots in historic Ballantrae, the estate rises three spectacular levels, each richly appointed with bespoke finishes, imported materials, and exquisite design. From the moment you step inside the grand foyer—beneath a soaring 25-foot domed ceiling—you’re immersed in a world of refinement. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame the Versailles-style pool and manicured garden plazas, inviting natural light to pour into the expansive interiors.
Every inch of this residence is a showcase of artisan craftsmanship. The chef’s show kitchen, featuring Italian cabinetry by Bordignon Camillo, is paired with a fully outfitted caterer’s kitchen with UNICA cabinets—creating the ideal setting for intimate family meals and large-scale entertaining. Flanked by a formal cordial salon, the embassy-sized dining room sets the stage for elegant hosting. Rich 5” white oak floors flow throughout the home, complemented by custom Murano chandeliers, intricate trim work, lighted tray ceilings, and artistically forged scrolled iron accents.
The main level also features a private esquire’s library, multiple entertaining salons, and a seamless flow to outdoor living spaces. An elevator services all levels, adding ease and accessibility throughout.
Upstairs, world-class bedroom suites provide luxurious comfort and privacy with spa-style baths and generous wardrobe space. The primary suite is a sanctuary with dual dressing rooms, a lavish bath, a sitting area, and direct terrace access.
The lower level is an entertainer’s paradise. A circular party room, club lounge, central bar, state-of-the-art cinema, gym, sauna, and a professionally designed wine cellar await—all grounded by Versace-imported ceramic flooring from Italy. Whether hosting a gala or relaxing in the spa, the club level seamlessly blends indulgence and utility.
Situated at the corner of Ballantrae Lane and Dolley Madison Boulevard, this home occupies a rare and prominent position in one of Virginia’s most distinguished neighborhoods—home to ambassadors, dignitaries, and captains of industry. With its meticulous craftsmanship, timeless European inspiration, and state-of-the-art amenities, 1181 Ballantrae Lane is a legacy estate.
This is your opportunity to own a modern manor of rare distinction and become part of Washingtonian history.
