5018 Cathedral Ave NW, Washington, DC 20016

Impeccably maintained and updated home in the heart of Kent. A sanctuary away from the hustle and bustle of the city yet only steps from the shops and restaurants that line MacArthur Blvd. The elegant white painted post-war colonial sits prominently above the street welcoming guests through its beautiful entryway adorned with a pediment harkening back to some of the period homes in Georgetown. Inside guests will be met with an updated open floor plan with hardwoods, recessed lighting and a contemporary kitchen that was renovated in 2020 with custom eco-friendly cabinets and chef-grade appliances. There are large picture windows both in the kitchen and living room that allow light to stream in and offer tree-lined views of evergreens both in the front and the back. A half bath on the main level is also an added bonus. Upstairs, there are 3 bedrooms, one of which can be used as an office and a contemporary bathroom that was updated as well. For added comfort the upstairs has its own HVAC unit and temperature control. The house is truly move-in-ready with replacements to the roof, HVAC and windows and ample storage throughout. A short walk away are some of the best restaurants and shops around including Et Voila, Black Salt, Bistro Aracosia, Starbucks and the highly anticipated new restaurant, Claudio’s Table on the corner. The nearby amenities that are also easily reached on foot include: Key Elementary School, Community Preschool of Palisades, Palisades Montessori, Fletchers Boat House, Palisades Rec Center, the Library, the post office and a farmer’s market each Sunday morning. Or if you prefer the serenity of DC’s finest parks, you are only steps away from the Crescent Trail and Battery Kemble where you can go for a hike, take your dog for a walk or experience some world class sledding. And of course not to be overlooked is the proximity to the Potomac River and all its majesty, the stunning canopy of the Cathedral Avenue oak trees, and views at dusk of the Virginia skyline. Don’t feel like leaving home, retire to the newly fenced in backyard where you can enjoy your morning coffee on the new Trex® deck or entertain guests on the large stone patio surrounded by low maintenance perennials. Experience hassle free living with no residential parking permits required, wide sidewalks and the walkability to Key Elementary school, Community Preschool of Palisades, Palisades Montessori and neighborhood churches.
