Significant structural and eco-friendly upgrades provide long-term peace of mind, including a rebuilt rear exterior with new siding, new windows, and a brand-new roof. The home also features a completely renovated bathroom, adding a fresh, modern touch to the interior. Solar panels generate $350 a month and provide electricity for the entire home, while the basement offers a versatile space for a studio or creative retreat. Ready for the modern professional, the property includes a dedicated home office and a specialized e-bike charging station with a storage shed. Upstairs, the home retains its character with original Southern Pine hardwoods that have been meticulously refinished. The layout offers three bedrooms, with new closets in the master bedroom. Outside, the massive backyard serves as a private oasis with a patio, a playground set, and plenty of space for gardening or man's best friend. Situated on a picturesque street, this home is just minutes from the Petworth Metro, local coffee shops, the farmer’s market, and neighborhood favorites like Timber Pizza.
