    What's special

    1544 N Colonial Terrace offers four levels of updated space in Rosslyn’s sought-after Highgate community. With three bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms, and an attached two-car garage, this classic brick townhome pairs traditional architectural details with major systems updates. Major System Updates New Windows: Replaced in 2024 – Hot Water Heater: Replaced within the past 6 months – Roof: Replaced in 2019 – Dual HVAC Units: Both replaced in 2019. Main Level & Chef's Kitchen The main floor features continuous hardwood floors, heavy crown molding, and a large bay window that brings excellent natural light into the living room. A wood-burning fireplace anchors the space, which flows directly into a highly capable eat-in kitchen. The kitchen features dark granite countertops, cherry cabinetry, a center island with a 6-burner KitchenAid gas cooktop, a double wall oven, and a brand-new refrigerator. Dual kitchen sinks offer a practical feature for separating prep work from cleanup. Dedicated Primary Suite Occupying an entire floor to itself, the primary suite is a true private retreat. It features hardwood floors, a gas fireplace, and its own bay window. Storage is exceptionally handled by two oversized walk-in closets with built-in shelving. The large en-suite bathroom is heavily upgraded with a freestanding soaking tub, a glass-enclosed travertine steam shower featuring a built-in bench, dual vessel sinks, and a dedicated makeup station. Upper & Lower Levels The top floor houses two additional bright bedrooms and a full updated bathroom outfitted with a double-sink vanity. The lower level provides a flexible, tile-floored recreation room—ideal for a media space or home gym—along with a laundry area. This level offers direct walk-out access to a private, enclosed flagstone patio. Location Situated just 0.3 miles from the Rosslyn Metro, the property offers incredible transit and commuter access. You are under a mile from Georgetown and just minutes from riverfront trails, local dining, shopping, and DCA, perfectly balancing a quiet residential feel with immediate city access.
