About This Home

As of November 2022

Welcome to this charming 1920's Craftsman home just steps from DT Fairfax and all its amenities. This single-family home has plenty of additional non-conforming rooms which nearly doubles the house's size. This home features an inviting front porch, a remodeled kitchen with high-end Miele appliances, and an open concept floor plan that is both practical and built for entertaining. The kitchen leads out to deck, garden, veg beds, & sep office/art studio + a storage shed. There are 2 bedrooms on the main level with a full bath. The primary bedroom has direct access to the back-deck. The upper level has a finished loft w/ closet. The bottom level has a non-conforming bedroom with walk-in closet, one bath, kitchenette, sitting room, & stackable laundry, all w/ it's own private entrance, perfect for guests! Don't miss the massive garage with a workbench and tons of storage. What sets this home a part is the incredibly large spacious flat lot with plenty of areas for enjoying the pleasant Fairfax evenings outdoors. Nature and trees hug the home and give it a private oasis-like feeling even though it's in the flats of Fairfax. The location is ideal for nature enthusiasts. Trail leads to Peri Park & just a few minutes' stroll from all that DT Fairfax has to offer.
