    What's special

    Stunning detached home in the heart of Old Town! Renovated from top to bottom with no detail overlooked perfectly combining the charm of the 1800's with the function of the 21st century. Step inside the vestibule and hand carved 200+ year old doors greet you. Beyond those, the parlour boasts original heart of pine floors, 9' ceilings, huge windows, built-in shelving and fireplace with original mantel and new slate surround. A half bath with designer tile and custom granite sink design, along with coat closet were added where the hallway previously led to the dining room. Leaving the parlour through the new opening, you enter the dining room which also has original pine floors, oversize windows, second fireplace and newly installed Federal-style antique chandelier. From the dining room you will enter the breathtaking chef's envy kitchen. Huge 4x8 island is a rare find in old town. Includes seating, additional storage and a beverage/sous chef prep sink. Built-in beverage center, Jenn Air appliances with commercial grade gas range and industrial exhaust hood, copper hardware and accents, stunning Quartzite (real stone) counters and radiant heat slate flooring are just a few of the upgraded details that make this kitchen spectacular. New patio doors and windows flood the kitchen with natural light and invite you to the grand patio which makes entertaining a delight. Upstairs you will find 3 bedrooms, 2 brand new full baths and laundry relocated to the upper level! The primary bedroom has original heart of pine flooring, 9' ceilings, built-in floor to ceiling closets, and a 3rd fireplace. En suite bath with designer indigo tile in herringbone pattern, polished nickel hardware, marble flooring, linen closet and 48" vanity with outlet inside--keep the blow dryer and toothbrush charger out of sight. Second bedroom, also boasting original hardwood floors and the 4th fireplace is currently being used as cozy TV room. The 3rd bedroom is new to include drywall, insulation, ceiling and heart of pine flooring. Pocket door allows en-suite capability to the sumptuous hall bath. Beautiful, brushed gold hardware, soaking tub, and heated tile floor make this bathroom a retreat. Hall bath was relocated to service bedrooms 2 & 3 without requiring passage through a bedroom. The basement, which is under the original house, is ready for your home gym or man cave. Easily add a wet-bar from the utility sink plumbing/washer-dryer hookups. The all-brick patio with raised flower beds provides low maintenance outdoor space with room for gardening. With multiple entertaining areas it is your choice if you catch a game outside or have a firepit. Above all in old town is the coveted parking. Brick driveway provides 2 off street parking spaces! With the serenity of the house and patio you won’t even realize King Street and all the action is a mere half block away. When you want to go out, you have a plethora of restaurants and bars within a few blocks. Centrally located, the metro and Potomac waterfront are each about eight blocks away. You won't find a better mix of old and new along with the entertainer's dream kitchen, outdoor space and parking! This home truly offers an unmatched blend of historic charm, modern amenities, and convenient city living. Other items of note: property also zoned for commercial use; new electrical panel; new hot water heater; new insulation in attic; new pull-down attic stairs and flooring for attic storage; new top of the line storm windows; new light fixtures throughout; fresh paint throughout; upper level doorways extended from the original 6' to 7' height while retaining the 200+ year old trim;
