Description
This spacious, light-filled, and completely renovated home is situated on a quiet street in a vibrant neighborhood so you can have the best of all worlds. At home, in the main house, you’ll have three bedrooms and two full bathrooms plus powder room. The open floorplan is bright and inviting . It includes a stunning kitchen with quartz counters, a range and eye-catching range hood in a large island, a wine fridge, and stainless-steel appliances, while the dining area overlooks the green expanse of the backyard. Wainscoting trims the stairway to the upper level where there are multiple skylights, lots of closet space, and fantastic bathrooms. The master bedroom looks out over the green field of Washington Latin School (instead of looking into neighbors’ windows!) On the lower level, the walk-out basement provides either a wonderful income unit that rents for $1500+/month, or a great family room with guest quarters. The backyard features a beautiful stone patio for outdoor lounging, barbeques and bonfires, as well as a separate one-car garage. Around front, the porch offers the classic DC rowhouse opportunity to sit and watch the world go by, or socialize with the very friendly neighbors on either side. You might think it would be noisy with a school down the block, but in fact it’s very quiet; and because there are no houses across the street, street parking for guests is never a problem. When you decide to venture out, you’ll find yourself equidistant from two Safeway groceries and two Walmart stores, and you can get your fresh produce and other goodies at the Petworth Farmer’s Market every weekend during the growing season. If you don’t feel like cooking, Library Tavern is a favorite just two blocks over - and Tony’s (great breakfast joint) is about 4 blocks away. The lively Moreland’s Tavern is around the corner from Kennedy Street at 14th, and there are really good restaurants on Upshur Street – barbeque, tapas, ramen – you name it, all very accessible and affordable. Of course, there’s plenty of green space too with nearby Sherman and Grant circles, the school field in front of the house, and Carter Barron with its soccer fields, tennis center and access to all of Rock Creek Park. Come see!
