Welcome to 3322 Elm Terrace in the historic Mid Century Modern community of Holmes Run Acres! This 1952 stunner was expertly updated and renovated in 2016 to a staggering 2,236 square feet of gorgeously finished space. All new landscaping just installed in May 2023 along with a brand new full bath (1 of 3.) Holmes Run Acres is on the Virginia Board of Historic Resources' Virginia Landmarks Registry and the National Park Service's National Register of Historic Places.
This vibrant community is incredibly active, engaged, and offers its very own public park in the center of the neighborhood. The Holmes Run Civic Association is one of the oldest in Fairfax County and the community pool is membership-based with a competitive swim team. For more information, visit holmesrunacres.com
Step into 3322 Elm Terrace and you feel like you've gone back in time but with all the modern amenities of today. Enter through the front foyer and instantly notice the original beamed ceilings and pitched roofline of the atomic era. A custom painted hearth wall compliments the wood burning fireplace leading to the open concept living and dining room. The expansive kitchen is anchored by a gas stove with artisan tile backsplash and accents. A 'Big Chill' vintage-inspired refrigerator fits in perfectly along with boomerang hardware on all cabinetry. Find natural, matte granite counters throughout and a breakfast bar lit by two 'exploding' metal pendant lights.
Off the dining area you'll find two bedrooms with ample sunlight and vaulted wood ceilings, either would make a perfect office as well. The first of three full baths here also has just been totally gutted and renovated with clean white finishes.
Through the living area, you'll find the laundry room with full size washer and dryer, a second refrigerator with freezer and loads of natural light. A storage/utility closet is also located within the laundry room.
Next to the Laundry Room door are stairs leading up to the second-floor loft. This space is perfect for an office, artist studio, secondary living area, bonus space, or even a guest room. This loft overlooks the spacious backyard and down into the family room and also has its own storage closet.
In 2016 an entirely new wing of the house was added including the vaulted loft, overlooking an airy family room with attached full bath and exposed duct work. If privacy is needed, two rolling doors have been installed, made from salvaged doors of neighborhood homes.
Continue down the hall into the primary bedroom with floor to ceiling windows, a freestanding Malm gas funnel fireplace, a walk-in closet, extremely stylish bathroom with towel heating rack, claw foot tub, glass shower stall and artisan vanity mirror, which conveys. Hexagon black marble rosette floor tiles and vintage modern sconces complete the look for this resort-like primary suite.
This incredible home sits on just under a half-acre of land, which has been very recently professionally designed and landscaped. A storage shed in back offers room for yard and outdoor equipment plus a child's play house with matching mid-century rooflines. A flagstone patio in back, shaded by mature trees, is accessed either from the back hallway or dining area and is a perfect spot for entertaining. An incredible opportunity to live in an architectural gem and mid-century modern community just outside of the Beltway. Minutes to Inova Fairfax hospital, Inova Schar Cancer Institute, the Mosaic District, Dunn Loring Metro, Merrifield Garden Center, and Tysons Corner.
