This Goodman mid-century modern home has three additions, terrific flow, and so much space. Enter into the original living room with wood-burning fireplace, walls of windows, and access to a spacious deck. One wall of the adjoining dining room is a large, mirrored closet. The kitchen has been expanded to double the size of the space allowing for a prep table/island or seating area. This wing also includes a 12’ x 16’ private office, storage closet/pantry, and separate laundry room. The primary bedroom addition includes vaulted ceilings, gas fireplace, vintage colored glass inset window, built-in desk/vanity and bookshelves, sliding glass doors to a private deck and en-suite bathroom with skylight. The remaining three bedrooms have ample closets, and the fourth has vaulted ceilings and overhead storage, as well. The family room addition has vaulted ceilings, windows framing wooded views, built-in storage cabinets and lower-level access. Downstairs is a walk-out basement, a rarity in Hollin Hills, which includes a storage and workshop space and a separate storage closet under the stairs. Many architecturally interesting details throughout including exposed brick walls, tongue and groove ceilings, clerestory windows and more. New roof in August 2023! Outdoor spaces include flagstone paths and patio, a gravel back patio surrounded by a beautiful dry stone wall and massive stone stairs, plus a storage shed. Ideally located on Marthas Circle tucked into a .4 acre wooded lot.

The historic community of Hollin Hills comprises approximately 450 mid-century modern homes designed and built by architect Charles Goodman and developer Robert Davenport. The homes are characterized by their large private wooded lots, sleek lines, and blending of interior and exterior vistas with their distinctive walls of windows. This close-knit community offers something for everyone from a garden club to the supper society. Annual events such as the Fall potluck, the 4th of July picnic, Holiday caroling, and the bi-annual Hollin Hills House and Garden Tour bring together young and old alike and help to make this such a special place to live. The neighborhood was added to the National Register of Historic Places in September 2013. This provides formal recognition of the historic architecture and community planning of Goodman and Davenport and identifies nearly 475 contributing historic structures.

Hollin Hills is a neighborhood with covenants that govern your property and is also a Fairfax County Overlay District. Any exterior modifications of your home will require approval from the Design Review Committee and, if permits are required, also the Fairfax County Architectural Review Board. For more information and copies of the covenants and DRC Guidelines, check out the Hollin Hills website.
