JUST LISTED >> 3D Tour & Video << Absolutely lovely: detached home with a big yard in Brookland. Rich in original detail and charm, but with upgraded utilities and systems throughout. Spread over three finished levels, this sunny home has it all – newly-updated kitchen and bath, beautiful porch where you can enjoy your morning coffee, fully-fenced yard and deck for entertaining. Walking distance to the metro (Brookland/CUA Red line), restaurants, Yes! Organic Market, and Turkey Thicket rec center. Plus, plenty of easy parking. Situated on a large lot with tons of options and configurations, there is room to grow here. The main level entry is from the large front porch into a gracious foyer. Freshly painted and with original hardwood floors just refinished, the living and dining rooms bathe in the sunlight from the southern facing windows. Lit by recessed LED lights, the living room also features a cozy brick fireplace. The dining room is towards the rear and is dressed in 100 year old original coffered ceilings and a modern chandelier. Seating for 10 on holidays is a breeze. The updated kitchen is right off the dining room and features new stainless steel appliances, including gas cooking. The white cabinets have matte bronze hardware and are topped with new carrara veined quartz countertops and backsplashes. There is a lovely pantry/future half bath location. The staircase to the sleeping quarters is original oak treads, balusters and paneling and is in great shape. Upstairs there is a large central hall w/recessed lights that sets up a perfect top floor layout. Both rear bedrooms are well sized, with the southern-facing room the larger. The primary bedroom is in the front and is the largest, spanning the whole width of the house. The large central bath has been fully updated and restored. The original clawfoot tub and tile surround has been re-glazed and a new ceramic tile floor added. The new vanity, tub and new toilet all have new fixtures. There is extra attic storage from a drop-down stair. The basement is partially above ground affording lots of light and fully finished with a separate private entrance making for an ideal in-law suite, additional recreation space, or home office. There is a big main area with new vinyl floors and windows all around. A marble full bath with a glass shower and large utility and laundry room. Off the back are two large connected decks that provide ample dining and entertaining space for family and friends. Off street parking is easy from the alley in the rear.
