House hunting got you feeling stuck? You’re in luck as this house enters the chat. Meticulously renovated in 2017 and cared for with intention, this four-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath home spans over 2,000 square feet. Craftsmanship never goes out of style and this place still feels fresh as the day it was done. Step into a bright living room with a fireplace that sets the tone for slow mornings and easy nights. The kitchen is the hub. An oversized island anchors the space, Bosch appliances keep everything dialed, and the layout rolls into a comfortable family area. Hosting is simple here. Lay out a buffet on the island, keep the game or a movie on, and stay in the mix while you prep. A separate dining room sits along three walls of Pella windows, giving full “sunroom” energy without the label. It feels intimate and private for dinner, and it converts cleanly to an office when life calls for it. Upstairs, the vaulted primary suite delivers a true retreat with a large walk-in closet and a spa-style bath with a dual vanity and stone finishes. The two additional bedrooms are real bedrooms, not the afterthoughts you’ve grown accustomed to seeing in DC homes. A full hall bath handles the rest. The lower level adds range. A flexible living area, a proper bedroom, a full bath, laundry, and a kitchenette. Set it up for long-term guests, an au pair, focused work that needs its own corner, or weekend watch parties. Out back, a flagstone patio and private yard extend daily life outdoors. The detached garage solves storage and hobby space. Driveway parking keeps arrivals simple. Storage throughout means everyday living stays organized. Location is the quiet strength. Walk to Zeke’s Coffee for your morning fix and Rita’s Italian Ice for a late dessert. Woodridge favorites on Rhode Island Avenue are close, with Brookland’s restaurants, the Arts Walk, Catholic University, and Metro just minutes away. Turnkey, flexible, and thoughtfully finished. Ready for its next steward.
