    What's special

    Own a piece of Washington, DC, history. One of 50 remaining homes built by LeDroit Park's original designer James McGill, this rare fully detached Italiante farmhouse has been upgraded to seamlessly blend past and present in 2,250 finished interior square feet. Step onto the wraparound porch that overlooks a sizable front yard and experience its inviting introduction to the property. Inside warm hardwood floors, restored bannisters and moldings, custom stained glass transoms, and all new wood windows reflect the property's historic character. Thoughtful updates throughout complement the home's notable features. The tastefully renovated kitchen with stainless steel appliances, granite counters, and island meet today's needs as do the beautifully renovated bathrooms. Entertain friends in the separate dining room. Two fireplaces, one flanked by custom built-in storage, now boast soapstone mantels and gas inserts. The finished basement with third full bathroom and plenty of storage functions as a great den or playroom. It has been fully waterproofed with French drains and two sump pumps. The home's outdoor spaces include include a sizable deck and balcony and landscaped yard with a fruit-producing cherry tree. Two driveways -- one with alley access and powered garage door -- offer convenient off-street parking. Recent updates also include all new exterior stucco, front and rear decking, HVAC, and water heater. Opportunities to own such a notable LeDroit Park residence do not frequently arise.
