Looking for a private resort style for your family? An estate on the market in Peacock Station in McLean, Va., offers nearly 2 acres of professionally landscaped grounds with mature trees, gardens, a tennis court, a swimming pool, a hot tub and multiple decks and patios for enjoying the outdoors.

An expansive lawn provides the perfect setting for playing sports or erecting a tent for an elegant outdoor party. An invisible fence surrounds the property, which also has a fenced dog run, making it a haven for the family pets, too.
