Home Details
The pleasures of a short commute! A mere stone's throw from the shopping and dining options of Birch & Broad Shopping area, and only a "jiffy" from the pleasant bustle of town and parks and open spaces (Cherry Hill Park, W&OD biking/walking trail, Lincoln Park), the home also offers a painless commute to Tysons area & RT.66 access .
After your local excursions, you'll return to the practical charisma of classic Craftsman architecture, in a popular neighborhood where the streets are framed by greenery. Out front, the driveway has ample room for visitors' parking.
Though large and attractively landscaped, the yard is also low-maintenance, giving you more time to enjoy it. The wood composite materials deck with retractable awning is a great spot for your outdoor furniture and the gatherings that naturally follow. Also in the yard there is a pergola in back yard, & a swing on front porch.
Facing the street, a breezy front porch is essentially an extension of the home's functional space, and a connection to the oudoors. This is a porch that inspires extended lingering, but many interesting features greet those who step across the welcome mat into the remarkable interior. The impressive entryway ushers you into an atmosphere of hardwood flooring (entryway, living areas, and kitchen), sunlight, neutral colors, open floor plan, and gas fireplaces in the living room and primary bedroom.
Connecting seamlessly to the living room, deck, and backyard, the chef-inspired kitchen is large enough to accommodate conversation with visitors during food prep. Exceptional granite countertops are in the classic island configuration, maximizing workspace and flexibility. In the warmth of natural light this headquarters of fine eating is a stage that makes every entrance a grand one. Culinary endeavors are powered by premium appliances . This is an eat-in kitchen, provisioned with generous pantry space. Also: 2 sinks, 2 skylights, & a warming drawer.
With ample closet space for wardrobes and linens, the well-designed primary bedroom has a private bathroom attached. It is conveniently located on the main floor. This remarkable retreat offers the quiet visual entertainment of a gas fireplace. The other bedrooms, all distinct and rich with closet space, are distributed throughout the house for privacy, and ready to be personalized by some lucky inhabitant.
An attached garage makes unloading the groceries easy. The finished basement, with the convenience of a bedroom & full bathroom, currently serves multiple purposes as rec room, flex space, and workshop. It would be a simple matter to reconfigure this bonus space however you please.
This home is a slice of paradise in the city! It will check all your "must have" boxes.
