10704 Stanhope Pl, Fairfax, VA 22032

Property Description

Growing up in Middleridge, there was one house that always caught my attention. I watched as the original owner transformed it over the years. Every new project seemed more impressive than the last. The unique sunroom, expanded bedroom and living spaces, and massive lower-level workshop made this home unlike any other in the neighborhood. Years later, it remains one of Middleridge's most distinctive properties. Welcome to 10704 Stanhope Place, a multi-generational residence where generous living spaces and endless possibilities come together. Offering 5 bedrooms, 4 full baths, and 2 half baths, this home was designed for the way busy families truly live. Step inside and you'll immediately notice gleaming hardwood floors, fresh paint, new carpet, and abundant natural light. The remodeled kitchen is the heart of the home, showcasing granite countertops, a spacious breakfast bar, stainless appliances, wall ovens, built-in microwave, and plenty of workspace. It flows into the spectacular sunroom addition, creating the perfect space for gathering with family and friends. The adjoining formal dining room has also been enlarged, providing plenty of room for holiday dinners and special occasions, while the family room offers a cozy gas fireplace that currently operates on propane. Natural gas is available should the next owner choose to convert. Just beyond the sunroom, a spacious Trex deck overlooks the side and back yards, perfect for grilling, entertaining, or unwinding after a long day. A small koi and frog pond, currently without fish, adds a peaceful touch, with the gentle sound of its fountain inviting you to sit back and stay awhile. Upstairs are 4 generously sized bedrooms. The expanded primary suite features an enlarged private bath, while the princess suite has its own ensuite bath, perfect for an au pair, extended family member, or overnight guests. The walk-out lower level offers incredible flexibility with a spacious recreation room, wet bar, den, full bath, and 5th bedroom. Movie nights, a game room, guest quarters, or a home office, this level can adapt to your lifestyle. Then there is the workshop! With its separate entrance, this impressive 27' x 13' addition is perfect for contractors, woodworkers, mechanics, artists, or serious hobbyists. With its own heating and A/C plus a contractor's toilet and sink, you can spend the day getting your hands dirty, clean up, and never have to trek dirt through the house. And with an additional 11' x 9' tool shed, there's plenty of room to keep tools and equipment organized and out of the way. Whether you're building, fixing, creating, or finally tackling that project list, this space is ready for it. The side-load 2-car garage has its own heater and provides even more storage, while the beautifully landscaped corner lot features paver accents on the driveway and front walkway for impressive curb appeal. Behind the scenes, this home is equally well-equipped with zoned HVAC, a security system, underground sprinkler system, and expanded electrical panel. Homes like this rarely come along. Lovingly expanded, meticulously maintained, and thoughtfully designed over many years by its proud original owner, this is more than a house. It's a home built for making memories, pursuing passions, and bringing generations together. And it's ready for a new family to love and make their own. And your lifestyle extends beyond the front door. Middleridge has NO HOA, yet residents enjoy an active, vibrant, and completely voluntary Civic Association that brings neighbors together with monthly events and activities for the entire family. This home has been loved for 53 years ... now it's your turn! Don't you deserve to live here?!?!
