9316 Coronado Ter Fairfax, VA 22031

Listing details for 9316 Coronado Ter, Fairfax, VA 22031 : This is your very unique opportunity to purchase a Ken Freeman-designed Mid-Century Modern home, built for its one owner in 1965, and on the market for the first time in 60 years. The property sits on half an acre in a private oasis on a quiet cul-de-sac of other mid century modern homes in the highly coveted neighborhood of Mantua. This home has over 3400 SF of finished living space, ten foot vaulted ceilings, original hardwood floors, and floor-to-ceiling plate glass windows that overlook a verdant backyard and a large in-ground heated plaster pool, long enough for lap swimming and deep enough for diving from the deep end diving board. The kitchen is updated with white wooden cabinets, quartz countertops, and blue glass mosaic tile and opens onto the combined dining room and living room. A redwood lined sunroom sits off the kitchen with Saltillo tile floors, skylights, and Andersen French doors leading to a side deck for grilling and overlooking and accessing the sparkling pool. A large screened-in porch sits up in the trees for quiet afternoons of reading, dining, and overlooks the pool and extensively landscaped backyard. A steel spiral staircase provide direct access from the screened-in porch to the extensive patios and the pool. Three bedrooms are on the main floor and a fourth is on the lower level floor for guests, teenagers or a home office. The primary bedroom has an en suite bathroom with tiled shower. The two upstairs bedrooms share a full hall bathroom. All bedrooms have generous closets. The entire lower level space is finished. New flooring in the downstairs family room makes the large, bright space suitable for a wide range of uses with the brick gas fireplace, sliding doors to an outdoor patio, and a wet bar with stereo room. You will also find a large fourth bedroom with walk-in closet and adjacent full bath. Beyond this on the lower level is a large finished multipurpose room with built in bookcases, storage closets, hardwood floors, and sliding doors to the back patio, big enough to be a playroom and home office. Laundry and more storage is located off this room. In addition to the original mid century architecture, the backyard makes this property distinctive. Floor to ceiling windows and doors lead to patios on the lower floor for easy indoor-outdoor living and convenient access to the private fenced yard for pets and children. Landscaped originally with a Japanese garden, the land off the patios offers opportunity for many styles of gardens. A pool and tool storage room is accessed from the back patio. Mature vegetation ensures complete privacy. The private and expansive space and pool area back up to open land with trails. Ready to move in, this one-owner home is rare in that it retains most of its original features including a shoji screen at the entry foyer. Well-preserved, it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the lover of authentic mid-century architecture who is interested in preserving and living in a design icon. The neighborhood of Mantua is a truly special, conveniently located to everything in the DMV, with much desired schools, community pool and tennis club and miles of walking trails. Open Houses all weekend!
