    Rarely available detached, 3-level home in the heart of Petworth with a front- and back-yard and separate, two-car garage. Completely renovated, this home is the perfect combination of historic character and modern design. Owned by just two families in the past 70 years, the house has been overhauled top-to-bottom to provide all of your modern desires while retaining the its historic charm. The front lawn and flower garden are perfectly landscaped. New flagstone pavers and stairs bring you to a welcoming, wide front porch. Once inside, you’ll love the bright and open main level of the home that features wide-plank wooden flooring, recessed lighting, and neutral paint throughout. The natural light from the new, Pella windows infuses the space. The main level has a family room with a working fireplace, a separate kitchen and dining area, and a separate powder room and laundry/mud room. The kitchen renovation includes modern appliances, quartz countertops, and UltraCraft custom cabinets to maximize space and keep windows (28 in total) throughout the home. A large kitchen island completes the space. French doors lead you to the back deck, with steps down to a shady lawn and a detached, two-car garage with an automatic gate. Upstairs, there are three bedrooms. The owner bedroom has an en suite bath with a double vanity, a large shower, and a separate water closet for maximum privacy. The other two bedrooms share a jack and jill bathroom, also with a double vanity and separate water closet. The lower level of the home is perfectly designed to use as an in-law suite or office. With both interior and exterior entrances, a living and bedroom space, a complete kitchen, and a washer/dryer, it’s the perfect space to welcome visitors. The home is centrally located with a five-minute walk to EL Haynes Charter School and Sherman Circle Park; a 10-minute walk to shops and restaurants on Upshur Street, Honeymoon Chicken, Yes! Organic Market, and District Pilates; and a less than 15-minute walk to Petworth Metro, Safeway, and much more! Welcome home.
