Imagine stepping outside on a warm summer evening into the vibrant energy of the city - strolling past lively outdoor patios, popping into local beer gardens, or grabbing a late-night scoop at Jeni's - only to retreat seconds later to a remarkably quiet, friendly street with a tight-knit sense of community and neighborhood events. Welcome to this beautiful south-facing Victorian rowhouse that perfectly pairs an unbeatable urban lifestyle with character and modern updates and convenience. Step inside to an inviting entryway that introduces the home's timeless soul, defined by soaring ceilings, a striking exposed brick accent wall, refinished hardwood floors, and original detailed door and pocket door knobs. The light-filled living and dining rooms exude warmth and elegance, anchored by a gorgeous stained-glass transom window and two stately fireplaces with their original, detailed Victorian stone mantels. Continuing through the main level, you'll find a renovated full bathroom and an updated gourmet kitchen equipped with premium stainless steel appliances (incl. Wolf gas range), sleek soft close shaker cabinets, a tiled backsplash, and quartz countertops. The upper level features a spacious primary bedroom complete with a newly added ensuite bathroom boasting a large walk-in shower, spacious vanity, and bidet, alongside newer stacked washer/dryer. This level includes two additional bedrooms, another full bathroom. Out back you'll find a private patio space with string lights, space for urban gardening with potted plants, and secure off-street parking for 2 cars behind a roll-up garage door.For those looking to expand, the unfinished walk-out basement offers abundant storage and an additional laundry area with sink. Totaling 2,520 sqft across all three levels, this space is a blank canvas ready to be transformed into a potentially income-generating airbnb, in-law suite, rec room, complete with the neighborhood precedent to add a separate front entrance. The location is truly unbeatable, offering an effortless, car-free lifestyle just two blocks from the U Street Metro and Capital Bikeshare. Daily errands are a breeze with Trader Joe's a block away and Whole Foods half a mile from your front door. Spend your weekends grabbing coffee at Colada Shop, boutique shopping along 14th St, sampling drafts at Aslin Beer Co, picnics at Meridian Hill Park, or catching a show at the Lincoln Theatre, 9:30 Club, or Howard Theatre. Steps from local community gardens, playgrounds, sports fields, and Garrison Elementary School is only 0.2 miles away. Multiple updates throughout, including fully owned solar panels that drastically reduce your electricity costs, refinished hardwood floors, hot water heater (2022), smart thermostat, and roof slates replaced/sealed, and more.
