10704 Stanhope Pl, Fairfax, VA 22032

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 bedrooms 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 4,383 sqft 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 the 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 space 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 composite deck overlooks the side and back yards, perfect for grilling, entertaining, or unwinding after a long day. A small gold fish 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 primary suite bath was enlarged for wheelchair accessibility, 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, that was used as a craft room. Think movie nights, a game room, guest quarters, teen space, 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 shop, 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.

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.

Rarely does a home offer such a special combination of space, care, and heart. Expanded and lovingly maintained by its original owner for 53 years, this exceptional property has been thoughtfully designed to support a lifetime of memories, hobbies, celebrations, and family gatherings. It now awaits new owners who will appreciate its character and continue its legacy while adding their own personal touches.

Don't you deserve to live here?!?!
