Property Description
The long driveway leads you across the stream to the home, beautifully positioned to embrace the surrounding nature. Despite its seclusion, the property is conveniently bordered by established neighborhoods, does not have an HOA, is on public water/sewer, less than a mile from George Mason University and Historic Fairfax City. The original custom-built home, though in need of work, boasts 7 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms across three above-grade levels. The first floor exudes classic charm with versatile living spaces. Upon entering through double doors, you are greeted by a staircase view extending to a formal dining area with French doors opening to the outdoor sanctuary. To the left, the living room features a wood-burning fireplace and built-in shelves framing a window with a private backyard view. This level also includes a kitchen and breakfast area, family retreat, sitting room, laundry room and a powder room. The mid-level offers five spacious bedrooms with original hardwood floors, two bathrooms, and a gathering room with a slider to a deck that descends to back yard. The primary bedroom has ample closet space and direct access to a bathroom. The charming third level features hardwood floors, sloped ceilings in two bedrooms, an attic fan for natural cooling, and an adjacent bonus room area. With some imagination the kitchen could be expanded to the adjacent living areas while the upper level would be a spacious retreat with the addition of a bathroom. While many rooms offer picturesque nature views, the property itself is a delight to explore with its trails, stream, and fire-pit area. This is a rare chance to breathe new life into a beloved homestead and create a unique, personal retreat. The property has a partial RMA overlay which may affect the availability to build. The GMU campus is at the other end of Glenmere Rd and Historic Fairfax City is less than 2 miles away. Commuting options include Braddock Rd or 236 to 495 beltway or rt 66, VRE is approx 3.3 miles and Metro within 5 miles, Dulles and DCA are each 20 miles.
