Property Description

Experience the timeless design and superb setting of this Springfield classic split level home. From the moment you arrive, it's clear that this is not a typical property. Lovingly maintained and extensively improved over the years, this home reflects an extraordinary level of pride of ownership, with major investments made not only in appearance, but also in the systems, structure, functionality, and long-term comfort of the home. One of the most significant renovation projects was completed in 2023, with approximately $125,000 invested in substantial improvements. This work included the construction of a beautiful new full bathroom and functional mudroom, extensive updates and replacement of sewage and plumbing lines, garage insulation and drywall, and a professionally finished epoxy garage floor. Much of the home's plumbing infrastructure has been replaced, giving the next owner the benefit of major work that has already been completed. Additional major improvements include updated electrical completed in 2023, a tankless water heater installed in 2018, and new windows throughout most of the home in 2019. The windows include a lifetime Home Depot warranty, providing additional peace of mind for years to come. The fireplace surround was custom crafted, creating a striking focal point in the sun filled living space. The fireplace is gas which is easy to use without the mess of wood. The home also features a wonderful four-season sunroom finished with beautiful natural stone tiles offering a bright and peaceful space to enjoy morning coffee, relax with a book, entertain friends, or simply take in the surrounding greenery in every season. The lower-level TV/family room received new flooring in 2019, creating a comfortable and versatile gathering space. Throughout the home, new light fixtures and freshly painted interior give the property a clean, updated, move-in-ready feel while still preserving its warmth and original character. Every chef at heart will appreciate the updated kitchen which is both stylish and functional. You'll enjoy granite counters, under cabinet lighting, newer appliances including dishwasher from 2024 and a newer induction/convection oven from 2025. The kitchen flows naturally into the surrounding living spaces, making the home comfortable for both everyday living and entertaining. One of the home's most convenient and recent additions is the newly constructed side deck, which provides a practical secondary entrance. Just inside, a full wall of closets creates the perfect drop zone for shoes, coats, hats, boots, backpacks, and outdoor gear. This mudroom-style entry is especially convenient for pets, gardening, and day-to-day living. The mudroom also houses the laundry and has access to the garage. The fully fenced backyard has been thoughtfully designed as a private urban farming and garden oasis. Mature landscaping and an impressive collection of Virginia-friendly fruit and nut trees—including apple, persimmon, fig, pawpaw, mulberry, and hazelnut—are complemented by raspberries, elderberries, passion fruit, established herb terraces, flowering plants, and raised garden beds ready for seasonal crops. The result is a peaceful private retreat. A 10' x 16' shed, built in 2025, offers generous storage for gardening supplies, bicycles, tools, outdoor equipment, and seasonal items. A custom-built outdoor swing surrounded by beautiful flowering vines creates a charming retreat where you can relax. 6012 Loretto is conveniently located just a few minutes to shopping, dining, and the beltway. Pentagon Express Bus stop is located approximately one mile away. 8-minute walk to Brookfield Park with a natural wetlands habitat. Welcome Home! The roof, gutters, and siding were replaced in 2010. The furnace was replaced in 2015. Welcome Home!
