Lovely, updated home in desirable Kent Gardens. New roof (2015), kitchen and bathroom renovated in 2012, energy efficient windows throughout, hardwood floors on main level, and contemporary carpet in basement. Finished attic provides room for a fourth bedroom, office or study and is accompanied by a second full bath. Huge finished rec room with optional 5th bedroom. Schools are all within walking distance and include Kent Gardens (elementary), Longfellow (middle) and McLean (high). Long driveway can accommodate 4 vehicles for off street parking. Current owners are moving due to job offer, but otherwise love this house where they have welcomed their two young children. Note that this house was professionally tested and is lead free. West Falls metro is 1 mile away. Home is located on an elevated lot in a calm and friendly neighborhood with a mix of families and retirees. The lot itself is amongst the largest in the area and the backyard is fully fenced, which affords more privacy than most, and it has two mature trees (great shade in the summer) and many beautiful species of flowering plants. Finishing off the outdoors is a playset for the kids and large shed that can easily fit yard equipment, bbq and all of the family's bikes. Heading indoors, our friends often say the house is much bigger inside than one would think from the outside. Original oak hardwoods have been kept throughout the main level, and the English basement is open concept and fully finished, which essentially doubles the official size of the house (since square footage only applies to above ground). Finally, the fact that the house is made of bricks really does a great job of keeping it warm in the winter and cool in the summer.
