This midcentury-modern home in the Holmes Run Acres community, built in 1952, has been updated with a new wing and colorful details.
The home at 3322 Elm Terr. has 2,236 square feet, with three bedrooms and three bathrooms. The current list price is $980,000.
It’s situated in a community that is on the Virginia Board of Historic Resources’ Virginia Landmarks Registry and the National Park Service’s National Register of Historic Places. The home sits on just under a half acre, has been professionally landscaped, and has a community pool.

Upon walking inside, you are greeted with a spacious living area with pops of color. The centerpiece of the living area is the custom-painted hearth wall and wood-burning fireplace. In the open-concept space, you will immediately notice the original vaulted wood beam ceilings.

Just off the retro-inspired living room, the kitchen provides a modern contrast. The kitchen features white cabinets topped with granite countertops. This space is full of playful accents, from a vintage-inspired fridge to the two large pendant lights hanging over the breakfast bar. The kitchen wall is lined with a white backsplash that is interspersed with colorful tile flowers.

Around the corner of the kitchen is the airy dining space. The large windows offer copious amounts of natural light and views of the backyard.

The primary bedroom has floor-to-ceiling windows and a walk-in closet. This hideaway for relaxation is completed with a Malm gas funnel fireplace in the corner.

The bedroom also includes a modern bathroom, with a clawfoot bathtub, glass shower stall, and towel heating rack. The bathroom flooring is tiled in a hexagon black marble rosette pattern.

In 2016, the house gained a new wing, including this second-floor loft. The space is versatile and can be turned into an artist’s studio, home office, living space, or guest bedroom.

Below the loft is another living space, which, like the rest of the house, has no shortage of natural light. On one wall is an eye-catching bookcase, and on the opposite are large glass sliding doors that lead to the backyard.

With a flagstone patio and ample amounts of shade, the backyard is perfect for dining or entertainment.
