Set along one of Washington’s most iconic avenues in the heart of sought-after Cleveland Park, 3721 Massachusetts Avenue NW offers the character and craftsmanship of a classic Washington home paired with approximately 2,500 square feet of interior living space, wonderful outdoor areas, and a location that makes enjoying the city remarkably easy. A stone walkway and steps lead to this handsome residence, where original architectural details have been thoughtfully preserved. Inside, hardwood floors, graceful archways, crown molding, generous windows, and abundant natural light create rooms that feel both elegant and comfortable. The main level is particularly well suited to everyday living and entertaining. A welcoming foyer with powder room opens to a gracious living room anchored by a fireplace, bay window and door to the rear garden. The formal dining room provides plenty of space for gatherings, while the updated kitchen features a commercial range, new refrigerator, and direct access to the rear patio and garden. This easy connection between indoors and out allows the living space to extend naturally into the private garden, whether enjoying morning coffee, dining alfresco, entertaining friends, or simply relaxing at the end of the day. Upstairs, the spacious primary bedroom features an en-suite bath, while two additional bedrooms share a hall bath. The lower level adds valuable flexibility with additional living space, a half bath, and utility area; an area ideal for a recreation room, home office, gym, guest space, or a combination of uses. Outside, mature landscaping creates a wonderfully private backdrop for the rear patio and garden, while a detached garage with alley access provides the convenience of off-street parking and additional functionality. And then there is the location. From 3721 Massachusetts Avenue, so much of Northwest Washington is within easy reach. Enjoy the shops, restaurants, cafés, parks, and neighborhood amenities of Cleveland Park, Cathedral Commons, and upper Wisconsin Avenue, all while being exceptionally well positioned for quick access to Georgetown, downtown Washington, and the surrounding neighborhoods. It is a setting that allows you to leave the car behind for everyday errands and dining while keeping the best of the city close at hand. With its classic architecture, generous interior space, seamless connection to the outdoors, private garden, garage, and exceptional walkability, 3721 Massachusetts Avenue NW offers an increasingly rare combination of character, convenience, and livability in one of Washington’s most established neighborhoods.
