1857 Hunter Mill Road

Tucked deep into the mature trees of Viennas beloved Wayside neighborhood, this three-level Colonial proves just how exciting a classic home can be when its updated right. Set on nearly half an acre of leafy privacy, with a long driveway and room to roam out back, this 1970-built home has been thoroughly refreshed where it countsyet keeps the character and proportions that made the era iconic. From the curb, the charm is immediate. That wide, rocking-chair front porch? Totally timeless. The contrast of brick and updated HardiePlank-style siding feels both nostalgic and sharp. And the scaleover 3,100 finished square feetmeans theres plenty of room to stretch out, host, or hibernate. Head inside, and things open up even more. Youve got a bright front living room with oversized windows, a separate dining room that can seat 8+ easily, and an eat-in kitchen with ample prep space and storage. The kitchen itself has been tastefully updated with newer appliances, fresh countertops, and refinished cabinetrydelivering a move-in ready blend of function and style. The layout keeps everything connectedflowing into a sun-drenched family room with fireplace and an enormous screened-in porch overlooking the trees. Its a home made for real life and real fun, no remodeling necessary. Upstairs, four true bedrooms make great use of the upper level, including a massive primary suite with a walk-in closet and two full bathroomsboth recently refreshed. Downstairs, the finished basement adds even more bonus space with a walkout rec room (think media lounge, gym, game roomyou choose) and utility room for easy storage. But its whats beyond the walls that makes this place special: the backyard. If you value a yard with actual usable spacenot just a patch of grass behind a fencethis one is a dream. The lot backs to woods, the canopy explodes with color every fall, and a stone patio with gazebo offers a covered outdoor escape youll want to use nearly year-round. Important updates include a new roof (2021), new HVAC system (2021), and updated garage doors (2021), plus fresh paint and new flooring throughout. Its the kind of thoughtful refresh that enhances daily comfort while letting the homes traditional bones shine. And despite all that serenity, youre close to everything. In just a few turns, youre on Route 123, Lawyers Road, or the Dulles Toll Roadgiving you easy access to Reston Town Center, Tysons, Vienna Metro, and Dulles Airport. The W&OD Trail is right nearby, and youre tucked between vibrant town centers full of parks, dining, boutiques, markets, and live events all year long. No HOA means flexibility. The layout means function. And the lot? Its the kind of place that invites you to stay. Whether youre dreaming of space to entertain or craving quiet among the trees, this Vienna gem delivers.
