Located in one of the hottest and most desirable locations of our nation’s capital, this stunning 2021 total renovation of a classic federal townhouse offers nearly 2400 sq ft of luxurious living space. The main floor of this 20-foot wide home boasts an inviting open floorplan with a spacious living room featuring a cozy fireplace. The central gourmet kitchen has a huge island that seats four, as well as additional cabinetry and service space across from the kitchen that includes a wine fridge. Step out of the large dining room across the back of the house to the rear deck for alfresco dining, a small fully fenced yard, and secure garage door parking. The main level also features wireless speakers hidden in the ceiling. Upstairs, the grand primary suite offers ample closet space, a marble-tiled sky-lit bath, and a private balcony. Two additional, well-sized bedrooms share an elegant hall bathroom, and the upstairs also includes a washer/dryer closet and a linen closet for added convenience. All bedroom closets on this floor have been finished with high-end, custom built-ins. The fully finished lower level provides an optional one-bedroom au-pair or rental space with a kitchenette, living room, bedroom, full bath, laundry hook-up, and front and rear entrances. Other fine features of this home include six-inch wide hardwood floors, high ceilings, recessed lighting, built-ins, and a front and rear yard/garden space. This location is envious as it is one block from the famous Union Market and the exciting shops, restaurants, & bars that surround it! It is also only a one-block walk to Trader Joe’s, a four-block walk to the Metro, and six blocks to Whole foods and all the H street corridor has to offer! This is a gem that is hard to find and won’t last long!
