On the Market: A Midcentury Modern Falls Church Home with a Tranquil Backyard

The landscaped backyard includes a pond, waterfall, gazebo, and plenty of room for outdoor entertaining.

There’s nothing like a midcentury modern home. The quaint space at 6362 Dockser Ter. in Falls Church, built in 1955, includes all of the charming qualities of a 70-year-old home along with the modern amenities we expect in 2025. 

This three-bedroom, two-bathroom home is located in the Lake Barcroft community – which means water views are just a short way away. The 2,209-square-foot home is also equipped with a two-car garage and fitted with a distinct copper roof. This home is currently listed for $1.175 million.

Trust us when we say you’ll likely spend most of your time in this living room. The vaulted ceilings and large framed windows bring in ample amounts of natural light. Plus, the windows give you a perfect view of the scenic backyard. The family room also has one of the home’s two wood-burning fireplaces.

The chef’s kitchen is just a short step away. Cooking is easy with a setup like this. The room offers 24 feet of granite countertops plus a large center island – making meal prep a breeze. Appliances also include a Sub-Zero fridge, a Wolf range with a hood, and a wine bar.

Head upstairs to find the tranquil primary suite. The vaulted ceilings and natural light continue into this space with large windows and a skylight. On the way to the en suite bathroom, you won’t miss the spacious closet with custom organizers. With a spa-like bathroom that includes a soaking tub and walk-in shower, it’ll be easy to unwind after a long day.

In addition to the main home, the property also comes with a flexible room off the garage. With its own entrance leading to the backyard, you can use the space as a workout room, a place to entertain during the summer months, or for whatever need might arise.

Once the weather starts to warm up and the flowers start to bloom, your backyard will become your own private, serene oasis. While the home only sits on 0.33 acres, the hardscaped and landscaped area makes the most of that small space.

As you explore the yard, you’ll find a charming gazebo, a pond with a waterfall, and raised flower beds to grow whatever your heart desires.

The property at 6362 Dockser Ter. is listed by Chrissy O’Donnell at RE/MAX Distinctive Real Estate.
