About the Listing SERH2 - 3243351

Welcome to the Powell-Ostrander House, a truly one-of-a-kind residence that beautifully blends the charm of the original 1800s farmhouse with the comfort and luxury of a thoughtfully designed custom home built in 2011. Offering 5,000 square feet, this remarkable property features five bedrooms, five full bathrooms, and one half bath creating a home that feels both historic and modern. Set at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in a private community, the home sits on a serene quarter-acre lot surrounded by landscaped grounds and adjacent to a park-like setting with a pergola and green space. An expansive front porch welcomes you with generous room for seating and dining creating the perfect space to relax or entertain. Inside, the historic heart of the home is showcased in the stunning dining room with original wood beam ceilings, gleaming oak floors, custom cabinetry with bar, and a dramatic dual-sided gas fireplace. This central space connects the preserved farmhouse character with the thoughtfully expanded modern layout. The historic wing includes a traditional den with wood-burning fireplace and a charming living room or office with gas fireplace, both featuring original wood beams and wood-trimmed windows. Upstairs in the historic portion of the home, a loft-style bedroom with full bath offers a private and unique retreat. The gourmet kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, anchored by a large granite island and featuring a Viking refrigerator, 42-inch cooktop and double ovens. A spacious eat-in area opens through French doors to a private flagstone courtyard patio, creating seamless indoor-outdoor living. Just beyond the kitchen, the sun-filled family room offers oversized windows and a cozy fireplace shared with the dining room. A mudroom off the two-car garage leads to the main-level laundry room featuring a classic farmhouse sink. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a striking open joist ceiling, gas fireplace, walk-in closet, and a luxurious bath with claw-foot soaking tub, dual vanities, and glass shower with custom tile. Two additional bedrooms each include their own en-suite bathrooms and windows for natural light. A home office with private balcony overlooks the courtyard below. The walkout lower level is ideal for entertaining with a large recreation room, wet bar, and wine refrigerator. A private fifth bedroom with full bath provides the perfect space for guests, an au pair, or multigenerational living. A second basement area connected to the historic portion of the home offers extensive storage. Additional modern safety feature of interior sprinklers throughout the home. Located in the City of Fairfax, residents enjoy municipal services including trash, recycling, and curbside leaf collection. The location is truly exceptional, within walking distance to Old Town Fairfax, the Fairfax Swimming Pool, Fairfax County Courthouse, and George Mason University. Just moments away is Daniels Run Park, a 48-acre wooded retreat with scenic trails, playgrounds, and picnic areas. Living here also means being part of the vibrant City of Fairfax community with beloved annual events such as the Chocolate Lovers Festival, Antique Car Show, Rock the Block, Beer in the Burbs, Movies Under the Moon, Fall Festival, Independence Day Celebration, and the Festival of Lights and Carols.
