With original details such as pocket doors, two working fireplaces, hardwood floors and crown molding, every corner of this home whispers of its storied past. The owners have lovingly restored and preserved its charm, accentuating the original design with thoughtful updates like two fully renovated bathrooms and an updated kitchen, restored antique doors, and elegant new light fixtures throughout. The location is as enchanting as the home itself. Enjoy the walkability that Shaw offers, with the Shaw Metro Stop, and local favorites like Dachas, Compass Coffee, Big Bear Cafe, the Bloomingdale Farmers Market, and The Royal just steps away. The neighborhood's tight-knit community feel is exemplified by vibrant events like the Warner Street Halloween block party, making this a perfect spot for those who cherish both community and convenience. What sets this home apart is not just its beautifully maintained historical elements, but the privacy and curb appeal afforded by its deep setback from New Jersey Avenue.
