About This Property

A rare find in Northwest Washington, D.C., this picturesque, single-family, detached brick home combines the best of traditional design and modern living. Located on a quiet street, the Tudor-style home has a cute front yard and inviting front porch space. Inside, the living room is just off the entrance and features a classic wood-burning fireplace. This flows right into the dining room, where special touches include two-toned grey walls and a chair railing. Another wide entryway opens to the office, with its delightful, south-facing windows, flooding the room with afternoon light. A nice-sized kitchen includes a built-in microwave and gas stove. The kitchen area also provides access to the powder room at the back of the house, and access to a second, back porch and the backyard. The basement is unfinished, and options exist to transform it into your very own recreation room, hobby area, or home gym. Upstairs, the good-sized bedrooms showcase original charm. One has a deep cedar closet, and all have ceiling fans and multiple windows. The full bathroom has a white-tiled shower with a convenient built-in bench, wide pedestal sink, and classic, patterned tilework gracing the floor. The fourth level of the house is an attic, which has a floor covering the entire space and is accessible via a stairway. Storing your items will never be easier! This home has been freshly painted. Original, refinished hardwood floors add a touch of elegance throughout two levels of the home. Mature trees provide privacy and shade, offering a serene backdrop for outdoor gatherings in the backyard, which is level, fully fenced in, and includes a car garage. Just blocks away, stop by Whole Foods for groceries or spend an eventful evening at the Great Lawn, both located in one of DC's newest neighborhoods, The Parks at Walter Reed. Catch the Metro train at Takoma Park or Silver Spring. Enjoy all the DC amenities and cultural attractions. Are you ready to call this attractive home your very own?
