GORGEOUS HOME! Built in the late 1800s, classic period details provide this semi-detached, Second Empire-style row house with character and charm, while interior updates have made it optimal for modern living. A fabulous front garden and welcoming porch will beckon you beyond the wrought-iron gate and beg you to stay. Once indoors, warm hardwood floors, 11-foot ceilings, and lavish amounts of natural light provide a striking setting for everyday living and entertaining. Three stories with generously sized rooms ~ including a master suite with a separate sitting room, allow ample space to spread out, and the light-filled, eat-in kitchen is likely the place you will prefer to perch. Whether on stools at the island, or at a table by the windows, there is no bad seat in this stunning, industrial-style chef~s kitchen that features an oversize Thermador refrigerator and separate freezer, a wine cooler and a six-burner Blue Star range. Exposed brick; blue-painted cabinetry, black, soapstone counters; and a reclaimed, built-in hutch add warmth to the sleek surfaces, while a wall of windows overlook the private backyard garden with its blooming crepe myrtle. A screened porch, just two steps from the kitchen, offers another alfresco option for enjoying a meal, a drink or simply the outdoor view. Conveniently located on 16th Street, this townhouse is sited between Dupont and Logan Circles, and is within walking distance to the commercial corridors of both dynamic neighborhoods, which boast some of the best restaurants, retail and recreation in the city. Two blocks from Dupont Circle redline Metro, the home also is a stone~s throw to grocery stores, farmer's markets, green spaces, parks and schools. And whether you are walking, biking or taking Metro, access to downtown DC is mere moments away. Walk Score 98
