Welcome to this beautifully updated brick-front home in Fairfax Station! Tucked back on a cul-de-sac, this residence offers three finished levels of classic colonial style and updates throughout. The heart of the home is the newly refreshed kitchen, with brand new countertops, updated appliances, and a large center island that flows seamlessly into the light-filled family room. From here, step out to the spacious deck—perfect for entertaining or simply enjoying the privacy of the mature trees surrounding the property. Fresh paint throughout makes the home move-in ready. Upstairs you'll find 4 total bedrooms, and 3 total baths. The primary suite is a true retreat on the entire right side of the home with its updated bathroom, and large separate sitting area. A main-level library provides an ideal home office, a formal living room, and a dining room. The expansive lower level offers a large recreation room, den/flex space previously used as a guest bedroom, and a hidden storage room that is so big it must be seen to be believed! Don't miss the full bathroom with a sauna downstairs as well. This location feeds into the Lake Braddock school pyramid and has unmatched convenience just minutes to 123, Fairfax County Parkway, Burke Lake, South Run Rec Center, and a variety of dining and parks.
