NEW PRICE!! THIS ONE IS SPECIAL! Because in 2011, a tree fell onto the house and caused enough damage to require that the house be essentially rebuilt, finished in 2013. During the reconstruction, the owners thoughtfully expanded the floor plan to include a family room on the main level, a larger primary bedroom upstairs (vaulted ceiling), a larger primary bath and a walk-in closet and a vaulted ceiling in the second bedroom. The main level bedroom is currently being used as a terrific office.<br/><br/>The walkout lower level already had an extra room with a wall of windows and built-in shelves that makes a great office or playroom. On this level they were able to include a good sized bedroom with full windows and a full bath across the hall.<br/><br/>The house has all new plumbing and wiring! Walls, floors, brick. And double pane windows. For all intents and purposes it is a 12 year old home.<br/><br/>Wood Acres is well known to be a highly desirable neighborhood with an exceptional community spirit. The local elementary school and park are within walking distance. The Capital Crescent Trail is nearby, as is Glen Echo Park, the C&O Canal and the Potomac River.<br/><br/>The new Westbard Square is well on the way to completion and will be a huge asset to the neighborhood! This is an exceptional opportunity to have a Wood Acres home with all of the original charm but with a much improved and expanded floor plan. Don't miss it!
