Just steps from the cafes, shops, live music, and community spirit of downtown Fairfax lies a truly rare offering. The last time this sanctuary opened its gates, buyers were so captivated they stayed for over half a century nurturing its gardens, adding thoughtful spaces, and protecting its views. Now, it's ready for its next chapter. Meandering pathways, a dedicated bridge, and hidden garden vignettes create privacy and discovery across a 16,000 sq ft lot. Sunlight filters through tended trees, framing view corridors and serene outdoor moments. Deer wander past, fruit trees thrive, and hillside gardens unfold like a living tapestry. At the heart is a classic Craftsman with 2BD/2BA, flooded with natural light and vaulted ceilings. Kitchen, dining, and living areas flow to a broad deck ideal for outdoor meals or sunset views across the valley. The lower level offers a second suite and cozy spaces overlooking the seasonal culvert, perfect for guests or creative retreat. Multiple detached structures expand possibilities: an airy artist studio with soaring ceilings and walls of glass, a detached office for remote work, and a garage with extra room below ready for re-imagining. Whether you envision a family compound or simply savoring the home as it is, this hillside oasis offers inspiration, privacy, and opportunity. ONLY IN FAIRFAX!
