2428 Tunlaw Rd NW, Washington, DC 20007

New price! Welcome to 2428 Tunlaw Road, NW. This 1927 Tudor 3-story, 3-BR/2 BA, 2-sunroom, 2015 renovated house, was designed to maximize the charm, flexibility, and functionality of its' original floor plan while improving the structure and updating mechanicals. The front garden with curved flagstone walk and rose granite cobbles is a perfect entry to the front porch where morning coffee or evening cocktails may be enjoyed. Original wood floors welcome you into the living room and full size dining room; which both may open into or be closed off from the rear sunroom boasting floor to ceiling windows. The kitchen flaunts a restored vintage O’Keefe and Merritt stove, powerful downdraft vent, new dishwasher, and soapstone counters. A white oak stairway leads down to the lower level which was fully dug out to increase the open feeling with higher ceilings and exposed joists. The space also includes built-ins; new windows maximizing light in the front and rear; another kitchen with large soapstone work area; modern marble bath with glass tile accents, Kohler hardware, two shower heads and Japanese tub; a concealed full size W/D; on-demand HWH, and a large gathering space. The LL rear room with marble floor provides significant storage space, and the torsion box (large structural shelf) holds an entire tool collection, or a twin mattress for sleepovers. Walk out and up the flagstone stairs with custom steel railing and deck. The Owens Plank fooring installed in the LL is rift-cut white oak (designed for lower level use, finished with Rubio monocoat) matches the white oak woodwork sourced from Maryland. The new basement floor incorporates hot water heat, and facilitates back yard drainage to the street in front by gravity; back column and central footings also structurally rebuilt. Original radiators remain to provide radiant heat throughout the home, but a dual zone house-wide almost ductless A/C system also dehumidifies and prevents a clammy basement feeling. The aft detached garage was reinforced, re-roofed with a Timberline 40-year roof, Hardie (cement) siding, and automatic garage door with large back door making unloading groceries a breeze! Upper level boasts three bedrooms, a full bath with Kohler cast iron tub and (new) period tile. Windows/doors in both sunrooms and lower entry replaced with Loewen aluminum clad windows; they are clear fir with natural finish on the inside with in-swing screens and push out casements (no moving parts to break) which when open provide a true sunroom feeling to the original 3-season rooms, making them 4-season capable as dens, offices, TV/gaming rooms, or yoga/art studios. Custom steel security doors on rear. Original wood floors and woodwork convey the home’s “good bones," making this property an incredible place to live in and invest in...rental options are endless should life take you out of Washington. 2428 Tunlaw Road NW is truly only steps away from Whole Foods, retail, restaurants, Georgetown, American University and the shops and medical building on New Mexico Ave., NW. With nearby public transportation and a walk score of 89, this location is priceless!
