On a secluded garden plot overlooking Rock Creek Park you’ll find a collection of English-style rowhouses brimming with charm and light. This small collection of elegant houses were created by famed Washington developer Harry Wardman. ----- Coming in from the hand-laid brick walk you’ll immediately be struck by the bright, natural light and the glistening, newly refinished hardwood floors found throughout the open living area on the main level. The spacious living area provides a wood-burning fireplace and coat closet and is open to the dining area. ----- The updated, eat-in kitchen features crisp white cabinetry, granite counters, a handsome mosaic backsplash and a wall of windows overlooking the back courtyard. There is also a powder room off the kitchen which also hosts a washer and dryer. The back patio can be accessed off of the kitchen and offers a private outdoor space, ideal for grilling and entertaining. ----- Upstairs, the primary bedroom and bathroom can be found. The primary bedroom has an attached sitting room which could also be a home office and both have oak hardwood floors. Alternatively, the sitting room can be separated from the primary bedroom and become a fifth bedroom. An abundance of windows allows light to encase the room with crisp sunshine. The primary bedroom boasts a walk-in-closet and a wood burning fireplace. ----- On the top level of the house, there are two spacious bedrooms with oak hardwood floors, ample closet space and a ceramic tile full bathroom. ----- An in-law suite can be found on the lower level. It can be accessed through the main house, or through a private entrance to the rear courtyard. There is a cheerful yellow kitchen, an updated ceramic tile full bathroom and its own washer and dryer. ----- This home also offers a detached garage located just down the alley, providing off street parking. ----- 2559 Waterside Drive, NW is perched on a hill with just a few other homes overlooking Rock Creek Park, steps from Embassy Row. It is less than a mile from Dupont Circle Metro, and close to many parks, shops and restaurants in both the Dupont Circle and Georgetown neighborhoods.
