Peaceful, Private, and Fully Updated – Contemporary Retreat on 5 Acres in Fairfax Station! Introducing 10242 Van Thompson Rd, a serene haven on 5 acres of lush landscape in the heart of Fairfax Station. Surrounded by nature and bordered by parkland, this beautifully updated contemporary home offers the rare combination of privacy, natural beauty, and proximity to everything you need. The property features a blend of open and wooded space—one acre of manicured lawn and four acres of mature forest—creating a peaceful, private oasis. Whether hosting a gathering or enjoying a quiet morning, the setting is nothing short of idyllic. Designed with entertaining and comfortable everyday living in mind, the home’s spacious layout flows effortlessly across multiple levels. Upon entry, you're welcomed into a warm and inviting family room featuring a cozy fireplace—perfect for relaxing evenings. This level also includes a guest bedroom with a full bath, conveniently located just across the hall, ideal for visitors or flexible use as a home office. Up one level is the heart of the home: a bright, open-concept kitchen, living room, and dining room. The kitchen is a standout, offering generous cabinet storage, expansive countertops, and a layout that lends itself to cooking, crafting, entertaining, and more. It flows easily into the adjoining living and dining spaces, and the dining room opens to a large deck—ideal for morning coffee or winding down with a nightcap under the stars. Three well-sized bedrooms, including the primary suite, are on the upper level. The primary bedroom features an ensuite bath, while the two additional bedrooms—each with large closets—share a full hall bath. The lower-level basement is unfinished but offers abundant storage, natural light, and endless potential for customization. Multiple access points throughout the home lead to expansive decks and patios, where you can unwind and enjoy the gentle sounds of the breeze and birdsong. Beyond your backyard lies a single-use park, used only seasonally for crew practice and regattas on the Occoquan River, preserving the peaceful, undisturbed atmosphere. LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION: Despite its tranquil setting, this home is remarkably convenient—just 15 minutes from shopping centers, grocery stores, Fairfax County parks and recreation centers, golf courses, and transit options, including Franconia-Springfield Metro, Amtrak, and VRE. Nearby outdoor destinations include Burke Lake Park and golf course; South Run Rec Center, with its pool, zipline, adventure center, and exercise classes; and Fountainhead Park, perfect for boating and fishing. The Lorton Valley Shops are just around the corner and offer a variety of amenities, including restaurants, a grocery store, spa, dentist, vet, pilates studio, gas station, nail salon, and more. 10242 Van Thompson Rd is more than just a home—it’s a lifestyle. Experience the perfect balance of peaceful country living and convenient suburban access.
