    Welcome to 3931 Massachusetts Avenue NW, a storybook 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath colonial tucked into the prestigious neighborhood of Cathedral Heights. Offered for the first time in 25 years, this enchanting home blends timeless architectural charm with lush outdoor living in one of D.C.’s most coveted neighborhoods. Set back from the street behind a wide, manicured front yard with mature trees, the stately home’s whitewashed brick façade and Tudor-inspired detailing create a warm first impression. A graceful flagstone path leads you inside, where oak hardwood floors and period details provide a welcoming introduction. The generous living room, complete with a wood-burning fireplace, flows into a sun-drenched sunroom—the perfect retreat, surrounded by garden views and framed by elegant French doors. The formal dining room is ideal for entertaining and connects seamlessly to the renovated kitchen, featuring granite countertops, custom cabinetry, and a stainless steel appliance suite. A separate wood panelled den or home office offers quiet space for work or reading. Step out to the expansive, fully fenced backyard—a private oasis in the city with flagstone patio, lush landscaping, and a detached well built two car brick garage with EV charger. Upstairs, the second level offers three bedrooms and two full bathrooms, including a spacious primary bedroom. The third floor features a flexible living area with newly refinished pine floors —ideal as a family room, playroom, or guest lounge—along with a fourth bedroom, perfect for visitors or extended family. The finished basement extends the home’s living space with recessed lighting, luxury vinyl plank flooring, a second fireplace, and classic wood-paneled walls, offering room for recreation, hobbies, or additional storage. Ideally located in Cathedral Heights, one of D.C.’s most distinguished residential enclaves, 3931 Massachusetts Avenue NW places you at the intersection of tranquility and connectivity. Just minutes from Embassy Row, the National Cathedral, and the scenic trails of Glover Archbold Park, this address also offers effortless access to local favorites along New Mexico Avenue and Wisconsin Avenue, including gourmet markets, cafes, and boutiques. With Tenleytown and Cleveland Park Metro stations nearby, proximity to top-rated schools, and seamless connections to major commuter routes, this is city living at its most refined—offering the perfect blend of charm, comfort, and convenience. Estate sale sold As Is.
