    What's special

    Create the life you love in Bolton Hill. This 4-bedroom home has a formal entry hall and parlor featuring an historic marble mantel, stained glass windows and gleaming hardwood floors. The original kitchen and dining room have been reimagined by local architect Christine Calderone. The modern redesign includes the original dining room mantel and floors paired with custom cabinetry and a wet bar. The dining room leads seamlessly to a cooks' kitchen with island seating. The floor to ceiling sliding doors (tinted for privacy) lead to a deck which is ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining. The deck overlooks a fully fenced courtyard garden and Sumpter Park resulting in unusually green city views. Upstairs, the primary bedroom features a walk-in closet and a bright and sunny bathroom with walk-in-shower with dual shower heads. The second bedroom also includes a large walk-in closet and an ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower. The top level includes two additional bedrooms, a full bath with soaking tub as well as sitting area with a laundry closet. The loft style finished basement provides space for a large den, a home gym and a separate work room storage area. The basement has a rear stairway leading to the fenced rear courtyard for easy bike storage. Conveniently located in historic Bolton Hill providing easy access to Penn Station for Marc Train/Amtrak for DC commuters, light rail, metro, the Bolt bus, and the JHU shuttle.
