Welcome home to this stunning corner-lot 4BD/3.5BA hilltop home in Brookland: professionally renovated to maintain its original 1920s Craftsman character. Enjoy your morning coffee from the privacy of the front porch overlooking the neighborhood. Turn around and enter the main level: a gorgeous three-parlor living room with restored original hardwood floors. The dining room faces an open chef-style kitchen with a spacious kitchen island, stainless-steel appliances, and floating shelves. Step into the Sunroom and into your private backyard, complete with a flagstone patio, spacious deck, and plenty of garden space. Upstairs, you’ll find three bedrooms, including a primary bedroom with private bath, a walk-in closet and tree-top views of the neighborhood. There’s a fourth bedroom in the finished basement, which doubles as an in-law suite with private entrance. (There’s also additional room for a home gym or workshop, as well as plenty of storage.) Plus: Live just a short walk from the best of Brookland, including exciting restaurants along 12th Street, the Franciscan Garden Monastery, and the Brookland-CUA Metro (on the Red Line). •
