Property Description

Vintage Craftsman charm! Welcome to a home with a story. Hand-built with pride in the 1950s, this residence is a testament to local craftsmanship and the rich history of Loudoun County. This home was a labor of love by George Mark Baker, a local sawmill owner and carpenter, and his son Bill. The framing, flooring, and wide moldings were milled from trees hand-selected and cut by George himself from the Baker family land on the Hillsboro mountainside. While most modern homes use pine, this home features solid walnut throughout—a wood prized for its durability and beauty. The house follows a classic Sears & Roebuck design, a hallmark of mid-century American architecture known for its efficient use of space and "Craftsman" charm. The current owner has maintained the home’s character while completing several updates to include, all new windows on the main and upper levels, a fully updated front porch (new flooring, railings, and lattice) and a new backyard fence with gate. The upstairs bathroom is now a full bath with a newly installed shower. Included in the sale are two tax parcels totaling .37 acres. The front yard is home to a magnificent Pecan tree that has been a centerpiece for generations of family gatherings.Every upstairs bedroom features a walk-in closet, a rare luxury for a home of this era. The main-level bedroom serves perfectly as a home office, and the enclosed back porch provides a dedicated laundry and mudroom space. Whether you choose to preserve its vintage soul or modernize its interior, you are starting with a story that cannot be replicated. "We spent our summers making homemade ice cream in the backyard and gathering pecans from the tree that still stands strong today." — The Baker Family "I have truly loved the history here. My favorite moments were spent on the front porch enjoying this beautiful neighborhood. I’ve done my best to be a good steward of its charm, even if only for a short time." - Current owner FLOOR PLAN with measurements is available within this listing. TWO TAX IDs: this sale includes two parcels for total of .37 acres
