On the Market: A Classic Colonial Home Fit For Modern Living

Timeless craftsmanship combined with refreshing updates make this home a true catch.

By Haley Huchler May 24, 2022 at 5:06 pm

This Fairfax Station home was built in 1999, but it has a timeless feel that will make you think it’s been around forever. The Williamsburg-style colonial home has charming crown molding and wood burning fireplaces throughout that make the 5,221-square-foot home cozy despite its spacious size. The traditional floor plan is refreshed with modern touches such as refinished hardwood floors and new appliances.

Located in the private Twelve Oaks neighborhood on a premium five-acre lot, this four-bedroom, six-bath home melds ageless architectural detail with contemporary updates, creating the perfect blend of beauty and functionality.

The spacious entrance hall is complete with gleaming hardwood flooring and a grand staircase. This entrance doesn’t leave any doubt about the classic appeal of this home.

Wood-burning fireplaces are featured throughout, from the dining room to the formal living room to the family room, making every room a cozy space to curl up in.

The stunning slate blue kitchen includes yet another fireplace, making it feel like the warm heart of this home. Complete with custom-built ins, updated appliances, and two walk-in pantries, this kitchen embodies colonial charm while still being suitable for the modern family’s needs.

A mudroom off the kitchen contains a butler’s pantry and a second full size oven, providing plenty of extra space and functionality for those who love to cook and host.

The primary suite of this home is perfectly outfitted with a large, dual entry walk-in closet, three dazzling chandeliers, and an en-suite bathroom complete with dual vanities and a soaking tub.

Enjoy the outdoors from the comfort of home with this property’s spacious deck, gorgeously maintained landscape, and fenced English garden. Plenty of living space both inside and out may be this colonial style home’s biggest boast.
