Huge rowhouse with adjoining basement apartment near corner of Hobart St NW and Mt Pleasant St NW. Few better residential locations in DC. HIGHLy WALKABLE.
This is a large four-floor, century-old rowhouse in perhaps the most walkable part of DC. Six bedrooms, one office/BR, 3 1/2 baths. And a great kitchen. Five minutes from Columbia Heights Metro and Adams Morgan. 15 minutes from Rock Creek Park and the Zoo. Just over two miles from the White House. Kid-friendly. Dog-friendly.
Safe and family-friendly neighborhood.
Ground Floor: 1,000 sq ft open concept living/dining plus kitchen area with cherry flooring, modern kitchen with a gas oven and range, great for those who love to cook. Includes front and back porches, back patio with grill, and a half bath.
2nd Floor Front Bedroom: Large front bedroom with a bunk bed and couch.
2nd Floor Back Bedroom: Bedroom with adjoining light-soaked sunroom.
2nd Floor Full Bath: With bath/shower, in hall shared by both Front and Back 2nd Floor Bedrooms.
3rd Floor: A large BR with king bed, separate office with desk (and desktop+printer if needed), and a bedroom+workspace and just-renovated bathroom with walk-in rain shower and double sink.
Laundry facilities are available at the base of the stairs from the kitchen into the basement apartment.
Basement apartment: This is a well-kept, dog-friendly basement unit, with it's own patio entrance. The place is well lit with outdoor space, a gas grill, plenty of storage, and a laundry room off the bedroom. Apartment is carefully-furnished with mega-fast internet, a sleek HD Frame TV, a stocked kitchen, and a new California King bed/mattress. Flooring is a combination of carpet (in BR) and tile (in kitchen/dining/living area). Natural light and windows are good for a basement apartment, and the recessed lighting definitely brightens up the space. Out the door there is a patio with grill and seating, as pictured. Storage and closets: Plenty of storage! There are three closets in this unit, plus garage storage if needed. Appliances: Plenty of these too! Air conditioning, dishwaher, in-unit laundry, stainless steel everything, and all the accoutrements you need to cook!
Energy efficiency: The house and free-standing garage have solar, so you can think of all of the above as sun-powered. :-)
About the Mt Pleasant neighborhood:
The local grocery store, wine shop, and coffee spot are a stone's throw away and there are more than 50 restaurants within a 10-minute walk. (Five or so are within one minute's walk.) There are several hiking and jogging trails that extend down into the Mall, Virginia, and southern Maryland.
The house is 3 blocks (5 min walk) to Columbia Heights Metro Rail station (Green/Yellow lines), across the street from the 16th Street Metro Bus stop, and a block from nearest Capitol Bikeshare docks.
A few details for those interested in working out and/or being outdoors:
-- There is Washington Sports Club (WSC) gym (with 25 yard pool and saunas) just 5 minutes' walk away near the Columbia Heights Metro Station. They have a daily walk-in fee. There is also a gym called Fit 360 immediately next door.
-- Rock Creek Park is just down the hill (0.25 mi) and there are several hiking/jogging trails that extend down into the Mall and beyond into Virginia, as well as up into southern Maryland. Rock Creek Park is beautiful in all seasons.
