For the first time in nearly 100 years, this beautifully maintained historic home is available to a new owner, offering a unique opportunity to personalize and restore a true piece of Washington, DC history. Lovingly cherished by the same family for generations, this property is brimming with potential for a renovation project that will honor its timeless character while making it your own. Located on a vibrant, tree-lined street in one of Northwest DC’s most desirable neighborhoods, the home is rich in original character and design. The home features classic architectural details, including original hardwood floors in the main living area and primary bedroom, elegant moldings, and spacious formal rooms. The traditional layout offers well-sized formal living and dining spaces, along with two spacious bedrooms, providing a solid foundation for a thoughtful renovation. The full basement adds additional space for storage, expansion, or creative uses. Outside, the private, fully fenced backyard provides a quiet retreat, while the rear parking offers convenience in a coveted city location. Recent major improvements will ensure peace of mind for years to come: the roof and HVAC system are both less than five years old, and all windows and the water heater were replaced in 2017. There is central heat and duct work throughout the home making the conversion to central A/C painless! With its exceptional bones, lovingly preserved architecture, and deep family legacy, this home offers endless possibilities for a buyer looking to restore or reinvent a beloved classic in one of DC’s most vibrant neighborhoods.
