Tucked along one of the prettiest tree-lined streets in 16th Street Heights, this elegant, light-soaked home blends classic charm with everyday comfort. Original hardwood floors, oversized windows, and a flowing open layout make the main level feel both inviting and effortlessly stylish. The space includes a bright living room, generous dining area, chef's kitchen, and convenient powder room equally suited for cozy nights in or lively dinner parties.
Upstairs, you'll find three spacious bedrooms, including two primary-style suites, two full baths, excellent closet space, and in-home laundry. Downstairs, the finished lower level offers even more flexible living space along with an additional half bath.
Out back is where this home truly shines: a private backyard retreat complete with raised garden beds for aspiring urban gardeners, plus a large porch and deck made for summer barbecues, evening wine, and long weekend brunches under the trees.
And the location? Hard to beat. Just half a block to the 70 & 79 buses for an easy ride downtown, to Metro, or up to Silver Spring. Capital Bikeshare is around the corner, and downtown DC is about a 25-minute commute away. Walk to the library, grocery stores, Upshur Pool, Rock Creek Park, the Carter Barron Tennis Center, weekend farmers markets, and neighborhood favorites like Timber Pizza Co., Moreland's Tavern, Lulabelle's Sweet Shop, Anxo Cidery, and many more.
The home is also in-boundary for West Education Campus, a beloved neighborhood school just a five-minute walk away.
