Dogue Hill is a stunning new estate residence in the heart of historic Langley Farms. The estate presides over a quiet, tree-lined lane and takes its name from the Doeg Indians who inhabited parts of Virginia and Maryland in the 17th and 18th centuries. Newly completed to exacting standards, Dogue Hill brings the past and present together in a modern masterpiece. This Modern European Country House is the vision of award-winning luxury homebuilders, Griffin/Moran, and promises to be their most spectacular project to date. Dogue Hill is rooted in tradition but reflects a clean, crisp, contemporary style rarely seen in McLean.

This provides a stunning focal point for the spectacular outdoor entertaining area. The upper level terrace features a barbeque station, outdoor refrigerator, sink and firebox.
