Welcome home to this charming 116-year-old Farmhouse just north of Del Ray, which has just undergone a wonderful revival of its original charm and character. There's a new roof with a transferrable warranty, a rebuilt front porch and back deck, some replacement windows, new lighting, a full interior paint job, new carpet in the family room and middle bedroom, and landscaping (all in 3/26). A spacious backyard provides plenty of room to entertain, garden, or expand. The original hard pine floors are beautiful. The bright white kitchen features a new refrigerator, dishwasher, and microwave (2025). The cozy family room at the back of the house has a gas fireplace surrounded by built-in cabinets and shelves, and opens onto a lovely, fully fenced backyard with a deck, a side paver patio, and a shed. The front porch rockers, vase, rug, backyard chimenea, and the two-year old lawnmower convey. There's room for 2 cars in the driveway. You'll be convenient to The Pentagon, DC, Regan National, Del Ray, and Old Towne. Welcome Home! Floor plans are included in the photos.
