What's special
This captivating 1936 center hall colonial home showcases timeless elegance with modern updates. It offers over 3,000 square feet of living space spread across four finished levels, featuring four bedrooms, three bathrooms, and generous living areas. As you approach the house, you'll find a brick walkway leading to the covered entrance. Upon entering, you'll be greeted by a spacious foyer leading to the back of the home, reflecting the true essence of a center hall colonial layout. On the right, there's a spacious living room with a gas fireplace and an original mantel, while on the left, you'll discover a large formal dining room with chair rail molding and an original built-in china cabinet, setting the stage for elegant gatherings. The kitchen has been completely remodeled and now features an island with an induction cooktop, tile floor, granite countertops, ample cabinet storage, and French doors leading to the back patio and detached garage. Additionally, there’s a versatile additional room (den, playroom, or office) and a half bath on the first level. Moving to the second level, you'll find a sizable primary bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, two additional bedrooms, a second full bath, and a bonus room that could serve as a play area, an office, or even a fourth bedroom on this level. A flexible finished third level provides ample space for an office, guest bedroom, or playroom. The lower level includes a family room with built-in shelving, laundry facilities, a storage area/workshop, a toilet closet, and a walkout exit to the rear. Outside, the backyard features a fully fenced yard with a patio, a parking pad, and a detached garage. The central location of this property offers the best of both worlds—a quiet suburban lifestyle with abundant green space, just minutes away from all the amenities of downtown DC.
