    What's special

    This massive four-bedroom townhouse, ideally located in Shaw, is just steps from downtown DC and features a huge roof deck with stunning views of the city and the Washington Monument. Freshly painted throughout, the home spans three finished levels with beautiful hardwood floors accented by blue pearl granite inlays, exposed brick walls, and a main level with two decorative fireplaces. The open living and dining areas flow into a well-appointed kitchen featuring granite countertops, custom cabinetry, and modern finishes ideal for everything from casual meals to dinner parties. Beyond the kitchen, you'll find a paved patio with a raised deck area, perfect for grilling with friends or escaping the hustle and bustle of city life. Upstairs, each bedroom is generously sized and filled with natural light from oversized windows. The second-floor primary bedroom includes an en suite bathroom and huge closets. On the third floor, an in-unit washer and dryer adjacent to the bedrooms adds convenience. The fourth bedroom contains a staircase to the true highlight of this gorgeous home: the spacious rooftop deck. Offering panoramic views across the city including a direct line of sight to the Washington Monument this unexpected treat nearly doubles the home's outdoor space. The home is pet-friendly, allowing cats and small dogs under 25 pounds, with a required pet application, pet screening, and a non-refundable pet fee.
