** RARE, 5 Spacious Bedrooms on the Upper Level. Over 3,000 Finished Square Feet!" <BR> Welcome to 5509 Yellow Rail Court, a beautifully maintained 5-bedroom, 3.5-bath Colonial tucked away in the highly sought-after Fairfax Club Estates community. Combining classic design with generous living spaces, this home offers a perfect balance of family functionality and everyday elegance—all on a tranquil, tree-lined cul-de-sac. A welcoming front porch, tailored brick and siding exterior, expert landscaping, newly repaved driveway, and an idyllic screened-in porch with adjoining wraparound deck set the tone for what lies inside. Step into a bright and airy interior with rich hardwood-style luxury flooring, fresh neutral paint, high ceilings, and sun-filled rooms that flow effortlessly from one to the next. <BR> <BR> The gracious foyer opens to a formal living room where twin windows invite natural light, while, opposite the foyer, the formal dining room provides a refined setting for gatherings with chair rail detailing and a shaded chandelier that adds warmth and character. The eat-in kitchen is designed for comfort and convenience, offering extensive cabinetry, ample counter space, quality appliances including a French door refrigerator, and a large breakfast area ideal for daily meals or casual entertaining. A sliding glass door leads to the screened-in porch—perfect for morning coffee, summer dinners, or simply relaxing with views of the lush, private lawn framed by mature trees and plantings. The family room is anchored by a cozy wood-burning fireplace set in a classic brick accent wall, while a laundry/mudroom and powder room add everyday functionality to the main level. <BR> <BR> Upstairs, the spacious primary suite is a private retreat featuring a cathedral ceiling, a Palladian window, generous walk-in closet, and a thoughtfully designed en suite bath with separate vanity area. An adjoining bedroom with a connecting door can serve as a nursery, office, or sitting room depending on your needs, as three additional bedrooms—each bright, spacious, and outfitted with plush carpet and ample closet space—share a well-appointed hall bath. The fully finished lower level extends the living space with a large recreation room, dry bar area, and plenty of room for media, gaming, and fitness. A versatile bonus/sixth bedroom and full bath offer ideal guest accommodations or flex space for evolving needs, while multiple storage areas keep things organized and out of sight. <BR> <BR> This home is located in a peaceful yet connected neighborhood with access to tennis courts, playgrounds, nature trails, and outdoor pools. Commuters will appreciate proximity to Route 123, Burke Centre and Fairfax County Parkways, I-66, Express Lanes, and the Burke VRE Station. Enjoy shopping and dining in the charming City of Fairfax, or head to George Mason University’s Patriot Center for concerts, sports, and community events. For those in search of timeless style, generous space, and a location that delivers it all, this is the perfect place to call home. Welcome home!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
