5844 Kara Place offers almost 2,400 total under roof square footage & 4 parking options; a rare and valuable find! This tastefully updated townhome is located in the highly sought-after Burke Station Square Community. In any direction, the neighborhood reflects suburban perfection with its established surroundings & everyday conveniences. The home sits within the coveted Lake Braddock High School pyramid which earned Gold Medal recognition & ranked in the top 2% of high schools nationwide by U.S. News & World Report in 2025. Adding to its appeal, the March issue of Northern Virginia Magazine named Burke the #1 hottest zip code in Northern Virginia! The beauty of this home begins outside w/ newly painted shutters & door; fresh mulch added & a recent power wash. Step inside to enjoy true gracious living. Updates include new flooring (2025), new carpet (2025), freshly painted rooms (2025) & beautifully renovated bathrooms (2025). The spacious, eat-in kitchen was renovated in 2015 and showcases impressive wood cabinets, granite countertops, tile flooring, & a counter-depth refrigerator. Additional updates include a new Kohler kitchen faucet (2025), new stove, microwave, and dishwasher (2025); a new light fixture (2026), and six recessed lights with a dimmer (2025). There’s more! Thanks to the elevated main living level, the kitchen captures peaceful treetop views, creating a more tranquil & inviting setting. This is a distinct advantage over ground-level layouts that face directly onto the parking area. The main level half bath provides the total wow factor with a complete makeover: new vanity, faucet, toilet, mirror, hardware, and flooring (2025). The bliss continues! Upstairs, the expansive primary suite delivers an unforgettable retreat. The bedroom features a new ceiling fan w/ remote (August 2025); and the ensuite bathroom area is a showstopper. It was fully renovated in 2025 with polished porcelain tile walls and flooring, a new vanity, a new faucet, towel bars, and toilet paper holder, as well as a premium Kohler frameless, easy-to-clean shower door with towel handles. The upper-level hall bath has also been tastefully finished with a new vanity, faucet, LED dimmable mirror, toilet, and tile flooring (Oct. 2025). The shower stall was retiled in 2019. The LL has a versatile flex area with new flooring that is ideal for storage, a home office, gym, or a drummer’s dream space. The backyard extends the home’s living space nicely. It is fully fenced and private. Additionally, is a safe play area for children. Major systems and exterior components have been consistently maintained, helping to extend their overall lifespan. The WH was replaced in 2017; the roof replaced in 2014, air conditioner (2008), and furnace (2013). A new front storm door was installed in 2020, the front windows were replaced in 2014, and the rear windows were replaced in 2002. A new water shut off valve and utility sink hose were installed in 2025. Lastly, the property is situated along an extension of the Liberty Bell Trail, instantly connect to paths that weave throughout all of Fairfax County. This is a cyclist's dream. Property is also convenient to 495/495 Hot Lane, 395, and 95. As well as the Fairfax Cty Pkwy, two VRE stations, slug line, Metro bus stops, and commuter parking. Military bases are approx. 11-15 mi. away & NVCC/GMU are approx. 6 miles from the home.
