Beautifully reimagined from top to bottom, this iconic Columbia Heights brick townhome pairs classic architectural character with sleek contemporary design. Meticulously rebuilt from the studs up, the home features all-new plumbing, updated electrical systems, energy-efficient windows, and thoughtfully selected finishes across four expansive levels. Bright, open, and welcoming, the main level is designed for both effortless everyday living and stylish entertaining. Stylish flooring enhances the spacious living and dining areas, where abundant natural light creates a warm, inviting atmosphere. Taking center stage, the striking chef’s kitchen features a dramatic quartz island, sleek cabinetry, recessed lighting, a premium Duro range, integrated wine refrigerator, and a distinctive hidden faucet that complements the clean, contemporary aesthetic. Three generously sized, light-filled bedrooms and two beautifully finished full baths occupy the second level. Above, the private uppermost floor opens to an expansive bonus space with exceptional flexibility—ideal as an additional bedroom, home office, media room, fitness studio, or private retreat. Adding yet another layer of versatility, the fully finished walkout lower level includes two bedrooms, a full kitchenette, a private laundry, and a comfortable living space. Perfect for guests, extended family, or potential rental use, it offers rare flexibility for a variety of lifestyles. A deep, lush front yard creates impressive curb appeal, while a rare private rear driveway provides sought-after parking for two vehicles.
