About this home
A remarkable reinvention in the heart of McLean, 1209 Aldebaran Drive is a comprehensively reimagined estate by Cecchi Homes, where enduring architecture meets contemporary sophistication. Set on nearly a one-acre lot within the sought-after Lynwood enclave, the residence has undergone an extensive 2026 reconstruction, introducing a new chapter of craftsmanship, thoughtful design, and modern functionality. Encompassing 6,800 finished square feet, the six-bedroom, six-full-bath estate combines single-level living, expansive entertaining spaces, and resort-inspired outdoor amenities.
A graceful circular driveway, anchored by a central fountain, establishes an elegant sense of arrival. Generous grounds and established greenery create a private atmosphere close to downtown McLean. A covered front porch welcomes guests into a gracious foyer, where thoughtfully arranged living spaces emphasize architectural character and effortless livability.
At the heart of the residence, an open-concept kitchen and family room form the centerpiece of everyday life. Designed for culinary precision and gracious entertaining, the chef's kitchen features a substantial center island complemented by designer lighting fixtures from Visual Comfort. The professional appliance package includes a six-burner Wolf dual-fuel range, a panel-ready Sub-Zero refrigerator, Miele dishwasher, Wolf drawer microwave, and supplementary refrigeration. A generous pantry, beverage refrigeration, and dedicated ice maker accommodate gatherings of any scale.
Adjoining the kitchen, the family room offers an inviting setting for casual entertaining, anchored by a gas fireplace and opening toward the outdoor deck. A formal dining room provides an elegant backdrop for celebrations, while the expansive living room introduces a second fireplace and an atmosphere of understated refinement. The considered layout flows naturally between formal and informal spaces while preserving the comfort of distinct living environments.
Privately situated on the main level, the primary suite is a retreat of convenience and serenity. The generously proportioned bedroom is complemented by a spa-inspired bath and two separate walk-in closets, balancing comfort, privacy, and everyday functionality. A main-level laundry room, powder room, and attached two-car garage further enhance the residence's practicality.
The fully finished, walk-out lower level significantly expands the home's versatility. An expansive recreation room opens directly to the rear patio, seamlessly connecting indoor entertaining with the grounds. A dedicated wet bar with refrigeration provides an ideal setting for hosting, while a spacious exercise studio offers a private destination for fitness and wellness. Five additional bedrooms, multiple full baths, a secondary laundry area, and ample storage accommodate guests and a variety of lifestyle needs.
Beyond the interiors, the estate unfolds as a private recreational sanctuary. An expansive rear deck and adjoining patio invite al fresco dining and outdoor entertaining. A swimming pool anchors the outdoor experience, while a private tennis court introduces a sporting amenity seldom found in a residential setting of this caliber. Together, these elements create an exceptional environment for relaxation and gatherings amid mature landscaping.
Ideally positioned within one of McLean's established residential neighborhoods, 1209 Aldebaran Drive offers convenient access to downtown McLean, Tysons Corner, the George Washington Memorial Parkway, and Washington, D.C. Thoughtfully reconstructed by Cecchi Homes, the estate represents a compelling marriage of renewed architectural character, modern luxury, and the enduring appeal of a private, amenity-rich setting....
