Property Description

2120 Elliott Avenue is one of Franklin Park's most recognizable homes—an iconic yellow farmhouse set on over an acre of sweeping, tree-framed grounds. Introduced by a broad, manicured lawn and anchored by mature trees, the home presents with a sense of permanence and quiet distinction rarely found. Its authentic wrap-around porch and classic proportions define a silhouette that is both familiar and timeless—capturing the essence of a true American farmhouse. The soft yellow façade, articulated with traditional detailing and balanced fenestration, reinforces the home’s warmth and approachability, while four fireplaces within speak to its history of gathering and lived-in elegance. Renovations have been done over the recent years including the kitchen, all baths, lighting, furniture-grade built-ins and beautiful hand-scraped walnut hardwood flooring. A gracious front approach leads to interiors that unfold with ease and authenticity. The foyer opens to a handsome library, setting a tone of understated refinement. Formal living and dining rooms flow naturally, offering a sense of proportion and continuity suited to both everyday living and entertaining. At the center of the home, a thoughtfully renovated kitchen integrates modern function with classic design, opening to the gracious family room and a lovely covered rear porch for a seamless indoor-outdoor connection. The family room provides a relaxed, inviting counterpart to the more formal spaces, while a main-level bedroom suite—with full bath and private entrance and wetbar—offers exceptional flexibility for guests, multigenerational living, or a functional home office. A large mudroom and family powder room connects efficiently to the attached garage, reinforcing the home’s practical livability. Upstairs, five bedrooms are well-scaled and thoughtfully arranged. The primary suite, recently updated, serves as a quiet retreat, while four additional bedrooms provide flexibility and comfort, supported by well-appointed baths and a large laundry room. The rear staircase leads to a landing with a fantastic upstairs family or playroom. Character details such as window seats and sconces add to the charm. The lower level extends the home’s functionality with endless possibilities. Currently comprised of a recreation room, bedroom with separate door to the rear yard and a recently renovated full bathroom, as well as multiple flex spaces, an additional full bathroom, and a washer and dryer hookup for an additional laundry room if desired. The walkout lower level gives direct access to the grounds of the property—creating a seamless extension of the living space. Outdoors, the property unfolds with a natural rhythm—expansive lawn, mature canopy, and curated outdoor living anchored by a private patio with fireplace and built-in grille. The setting feels both open and protected, offering a rare balance of space, privacy, and connection to nature. 2120 Elliott Avenue stands as a true landmark offering—defined by authenticity, architectural character, and an irreplaceable setting within one of McLean’s most established and admired neighborhoods.
