11923 Fawn Ridge Lane
Reston, Virginia 20194
A 1987 colonial at the wooded end of Fawn Ridge Lane
The house sits back from the street behind a deep front lawn, with oaks and tulip poplars on three sides. A covered porch runs the width of the front. Inside, a two-story foyer with a curved stair opens to a main level that runs in a straight line to the kitchen, and most rooms look out at trees.
Inside 11923 Fawn Ridge Lane
From the office by the front door to the woods out back.
Close the French doors, and the workday stays at the front of the house
The office sits off the foyer, apart from the kitchen and the rest of the main level. Built-in shelves line one wall, the desk faces a window onto the trees, and a half bath is across the hall sample. The room is about 12 by 13 feet sample.
Cook without leaving the conversation
The island seats three, and the kitchen opens straight into the family room, so whoever is at the stove is still part of the evening. White shaker cabinets and quartz counters were installed in 2021 sample. The range is gas, the pantry is a walk-in sample, and the window over the sink looks into the woods.
Winter evenings by a wood fire
The family room centers on a brick wood-burning fireplace with a timber mantel, inspected and swept in 2025 sample. Tall windows line the back wall, and on fall afternoons the light lays long stripes across the hardwood.
You wake up in the treetops
The primary suite is at the back of the second floor, facing the woods instead of the street. A tray ceiling, a sitting area between two windows and a view straight into the canopy. A walk-in closet and a bath with a double vanity and separate shower complete the suite sample.
Daylight on the lower level, and the yard right outside
Full-size windows and a sliding door bring the light in, and the recreation room opens straight onto the patio. The finished space also holds a guest area and a full bath sample, plus an unfinished room for storage sample.
Your back yard is the woods
The back of the 0.6-acre lot sample is mature oaks and tulip poplars. They stand at the edge of the deck, close enough that the kitchen looks into the canopy. In October the light comes through gold. By midwinter, with the leaves down, the view runs a long way through the trunks.
