Welcome to 50 Ashmead Place South, a charming and carefully maintained property waiting for a new owner who appreciates original details and a superb location in the historic neighborhood of Germantown. You will be greeted by a large front porch, perfect for sitting, where much time has been spent enjoying the weather. Upon entering through the original wood door (flanked on either side by windows), you will be pleasantly surprised by the extra-wide footprint of this unique home. The living area provides an entry with a small coat closet, as well as original hardwood oak floors. The focal point of the living area is a large brick fireplace surrounded by built-in bookshelves and a brand-new (2022) wood-burning fireplace insert. Moving to the dining room, bathed in the light of four large bay windows, you will notice a built-in corner cabinet which is original to the 1930s era this home was constructed in. As a nod to that time period, the seller kept historic details and layout in mind when the kitchen was fully renovated in 2017. Complete with wainscoting and a large window over the sink, the kitchen feels incredibly spacious and comfortable, like a modern cottage. The fully-fenced backyard offers space to enjoy the outdoors while shade-loving plants like hostas thrive. Moving upstairs, the home's unique rotunda layout offers an open feeling, providing space on the main landing to hold furniture if desired, as well as three generous-sized bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a sewing room, nursery, or home office space that some have even considered a fourth bedroom! The basement of the home is unfinished, housing the home's mechanical systems as well as laundry. It's a home that is move-in ready and being sold in As-Is condition, so the next owner may choose to add upgrades as they see fit.
