Oldest House in McLean is For Sale

Log cabin from 1700s sits on more than 4 acres.

Calling all history buffs: The oldest house in McLean is on the market. The home at 1032 Towlston Road, aka "The Thomas Lewis Home" went on the market this week for $1,350,000. (The home has also been known as the Smith [Temple] House or James Oliver house, according to Fairfax County.)

The log cabin, built in the early 1700s, exudes charm and features an addition that was created in the 1980s. You'll have loads of privacy — the driveway is one-third of a mile — to the rolling 4.35 acre property, overlooking ponds and woods. 

The 4,392-square foot home features five-bedrooms and 3.5-baths. Stay cozy with three wood-burning fireplaces.
