Great ground-floor 1BR apartment available in a three-story brick row house. The apartment opens to a large fenced back yard with off-street parking, brick patio, and an area for planting a garden.
LOCATION:
The house is on a really great tree-lined block, located on the border between Columbia Heights and Petworth / 14th St. Heights. Walk just one block to reach the biking and running trails of Rock Creek Park, or the shops and restaurants on 14th street (e.g., Red Derby, Taqueria Habanero).
It's only a short stroll to the many bars and restaurants on Georgia Avenue (e.g., Qualia Coffee, Looking Glass Lounge) or the commercial district in central Columbia Heights (Target, Best Buy, etc.). The neighborhood is full of great grocery stores, including the newly renovated Safeway (just 3 blocks away), Super Giant, and Yes! Natural Foods.
It's about a five minute walk to the Petworth metro station and a fifteen minute walk to Columbia Heights metro (both on the Green line). There are also buses that run regularly down 14th and 16th streets.
THE APARTMENT:
The space available is nearly the entire bottom floor of the house, which is set up as a separate 1BR apartment, but also connects to the main house via a staircase and lockable door. The unit has separate front and rear entrances, great ceiling height (7ft) and very good light.
The apartment has a nice, fully-equipped kitchen with good appliances, a lovely full bath with tub and vanity, and two walk-in closets with great storage space. The four windows and many recessed lights (all with dimmers) provide great lighting, both day and night. There's Berber carpet throughout the living area and ceramic tile in the kitchen and bathroom. The apartment is air-conditioned, has a security alarm, and has washer/dryer access on the same floor.
The apartment shares a large, sunny, fully-fenced back yard (with patio and spaces for a vegetable garden) with upstairs neighbors.
