Some homes simply sit within their surroundings. Others feel shaped by them.
Set across five wooded acres in Fairfax Station, this distinctive mid-century modern residence is deeply connected to its setting. Mature trees create a remarkable sense of privacy, while vaulted architecture, warm natural materials, and expansive views bring the landscape into nearly every part of the home.
The arrival sets the tone. A striking pair of intricately detailed wood doors opens to an interior defined by scale, texture, and character. In the living room, dramatic vaulted ceilings rise above substantial exposed beams, while a period-perfect floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace anchors the space. The brickwork continues into the adjoining dining room, adding warmth and architectural continuity without interrupting the openness between the two spaces.
Large windows frame the surrounding woods, and doors open directly to the rear deck, extending the living space outdoors and creating an effortless setting for quiet mornings, casual gatherings, and evenings under the trees.
The kitchen is equally memorable. An oversized island creates a natural gathering point, complemented by generous workspace and storage. A built-in brick cooking hearth and oven adds an unexpected layer of character and gives the room a sense of history and permanence rarely found in more conventional homes. A dedicated breakfast area offers a more casual place to gather, while the adjoining dining room is well suited to larger occasions.
Just beyond, an expansive screened porch becomes a true extension of the home. Surrounded by greenery and protected from the elements, it is designed for long dinners, relaxed evenings, and year-round enjoyment of the wooded setting. A two-car garage adds everyday practicality and additional storage.
The bedroom wing is intentionally removed from the home's primary gathering spaces. The primary suite includes a walk-in closet and en-suite bath, while two additional bedrooms and a full bath complete the main level. Thoughtful storage throughout helps preserve the home's clean lines and open feel.
The lower level expands the possibilities considerably. A large recreation room offers flexibility for a media lounge, game room, entertaining space, or something entirely different, with a second wood-burning fireplace adding another strong architectural focal point.
An additional bedroom and full bath provide comfortable guest accommodations, while a dedicated office creates separation for working from home. Two substantial utility rooms, laundry, and extensive storage add a level of functionality that is often difficult to find in architecturally distinctive homes.
From here, doors open to a covered patio and back into the landscape.
And then there is the property itself.
Five wooded acres offer privacy, space, and an uncommon sense of retreat. The grounds provide room to garden, entertain, explore, or simply enjoy the quiet. A regulation-size half basketball court adds a recreational element and can easily be adapted into a regulation pickleball court.
The expansive deck, screened porch, and covered lower patio create multiple ways to experience the outdoors throughout the year. The property is also served by its own private well and septic system, fitting naturally with the independence and privacy of the setting.
The home is located within Singing Woods, an established HOA community of approximately 40 homes with a nominal monthly fee. Parcels average about five acres, creating a notably private and heavily wooded environment. The neighborhood is defined by an eclectic mix of architecture, including 1970s ramblers, traditional colonials, and distinctive mid-century modern homes.
The broader Fairfax Station setting is known for its wooded landscapes, larger properties, and sense of separation from the pace of Northern Virginia. Burke Lake Park and historic Clifton are nearby, along with shopping, dining, recreation, and major commuter
