This is the Fairfax City property buyers wait for-more than half an acre, no HOA, paid-off solar panels, exceptional outdoor living, and a layout designed for both everyday comfort and effortless entertaining. From the moment you arrive, the circular driveway, gated secondary driveway, and two-car garage reveal a home offering a level of space, parking, and privacy rarely found this close to everything. Inside, beautiful hardwood floors and natural light flow through an inviting main level featuring three bedrooms, including the private primary suite, and a warm living room centered around a wood-burning fireplace. The refreshed kitchen combines abundant cabinetry with new countertops and brand-new 2025 appliances, opening to a dramatic family room with vaulted ceilings, skylights, oversized windows, and direct access to the expansive deck. Step outside and discover your own private retreat: a newly added outdoor seating area, large level fenced yard, generous entertaining spaces, and a basketball or sport court with room to play, garden, gather, or simply unwind beneath the trees. The finished walkout lower level expands the possibilities with a fourth bedroom, full bathroom, recreation room, laundry area, and direct access to the backyard-an ideal arrangement for overnight guests, extended living, a private office, gym, or media room. Fully owned solar adds lasting efficiency without an additional solar payment. All of this is tucked into an established Fairfax City neighborhood moments from Old Town Fairfax, George Mason University, shopping, dining, parks, and convenient access to Routes 29, 50, 66, and the Vienna/Fairfax-GMU Metro. A private half-acre lifestyle, flexible multilevel living, substantial recent improvements, and no HOA-10805 Carol Street is not simply a home to tour; it is the one buyers will remember.
