    What's special

    Welcome to this move-in ready, brick gem on a tree-lined street in the desirable Petworth neighborhood. Thoughtfully renovated from top to bottom with a charming front porch and blue door that beckon you inside. Upon entering, you'll immediately notice the light-filled space and the stunning blend of old world charm and on-trend modern updates such as energy efficient windows, recessed LED lighting, gleaming hardwood floors, high ceilings, and crown moldings. The open-concept first floor is truly ideal for how we live and entertain today: a large living room with a picture window and fireplace with the original hearth that flows nicely into the ample-sized, formal dining room. The heart of the home is the cheery renovated kitchen with white cabinetry, an eat-in island with lots of storage, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a coveted pantry for food storage. Open the door off the kitchen to the new deck -- a perfect spot for al fresco dining and entertaining. Up the wooden stairs there are two bedrooms, a renovated full hall bath and a spacious primary retreat with an ensuite spa-like bath with double sinks and an oversized shower. The bright lower level has a large family room with a decorative fireplace, new laundry with energy efficient machines, a full bath and the windowed 4th bedroom that is ideal for guests, an au pair or in laws. There is a fenced and grassy rear yard for gardening and play and off-street parking. The vibrant Petworth neighborhood has sidewalk dining, retail/shopping, a few of DC's "Best Of" hot spots and is convenient to the Georgia Avenue - Petworth Metro. Click on the virtual tour and you'll see how this gem checks all the boxes! Welcome home.
