Description:

Absolutely one of a kind, this fully reimagined Hollin Hills mid-century modern masterpiece was originally designed by acclaimed architect Charles Goodman. The property has been meticulously expanded with an addition and thoughtful floor plan alterations to fit a modern lifestyle. It features five bedrooms, four full bathrooms, and three half bathrooms. The main entrance into the home is a large, welcoming entryway with a stylish terrazzo fireplace, storage, and guest coat closet. Continuing on this level, to the spacious family room with a wet bar and wine chiller, a private guest bedroom including a tranquil en-suite bathroom, and a generous walk-in closet. There is also a discreet owner's entryway from the side of the home that features a large coat closet, a built-in mudroom, and a stylish powder room. This level also includes a large laundry room with cabinets and counter space, and an extra storage room. On the next level, you'll find three bedrooms. Two of the bedrooms share a hall bathroom with a tub and dual vanity, while the third has an en-suite bathroom with a walk-in shower. Another half floor up, you enter the open floor plan living, kitchen, and dining space. The kitchen boasts modern flat-front cabinetry, a double-thick quartz waterfall island, and high-end JennAir stainless appliances. There is a large walk-in pantry with additional overhead dry goods storage. Floor-to-ceiling windows flank both sides of this wonderful open living/entertaining space, filling the area with light and giving the feeling of being nestled in the trees. There's a beautiful floor-to-ceiling ceramic fireplace, a dry bar with a drink cooler, and wine storage. An additional powder room off the kitchen completes this space. The large primary suite is set privately on the opposite side of the house from the other bedrooms. It includes two walk-in closets, a shoe storage closet, and an additional washer/dryer closet. The primary bathroom features a large wet room with a freestanding soaking tub, dual shower heads, a large dual vanity, and a water closet with a bidet-style toilet. The front and rear of the property have expansive flagstone patios, perfect for socializing with neighbors strolling past or hosting a private outdoor party. There is an additional finished detached structure on the property that is perfect for a studio, office, or gym, creating a private space for working or meditation. This property offers incredible privacy, with forested areas to the front and rear of this oversized lot. The size of the land leaves endless possibilities for landscaping or adding a private pool. Everywhere you look, you will find high-end finishes and attention to detail, from the designer ceramics to the white oak floors. Hollin Hills is listed on both the National Historic Register and is one of Fairfax County's Historic Overlay Districts. It is a community born out of both unique architecture and its long history of community building. It is a world unto itself in a bustling city. The mature trees provide the setting for the 450 Goodman-designed mid-century modern homes. There are seven parks in the community, several of which offer great hiking trails. There are many charming and nostalgic annual events, from the Fourth of July Picnic with sack races and egg toss to Oktoberfest with kegs and brats. Living in Hollin Hills can truly provide a unique Americana experience. Enjoy all that this community offers, including access to Hollin Meadows Swim and Tennis Club, Hollin Hills Pool, Hollin Hills Pickleball and Tennis Club, and Sherwood Hall Library.
