Welcome to 3918 17th Place NE, a charming home packed with character and modern comforts in DC’s popular Brookland neighborhood! From the moment you step inside, you’ll be wowed by the original, recently refinished hardwood floors that flow throughout the home, along with the stunning, unpainted moldings, trim, and doors that offer timeless craftsmanship you’ll adore.
This 4-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom Cape Cod beauty lives much larger than it appears from the outside, with over 2,700 square feet of thoughtfully designed and updated living space while preserving much of the original 1940’s character. Freshly painted throughout, this home is move-in ready.
The kitchen features upgraded granite countertops and painted cabinetry, providing the perfect blend of function and style for your culinary adventures including gas cooking and a bright breakfast nook. A separate dining room is adjacent to the kitchen and living room. The living room features a gas fireplace, adding warmth and ambiance to this inviting space. Off the main living area, you’ll find a charming sunroom that’s perfect for sipping your morning coffee or watching the seasons change. Two large bedrooms and a full bathroom complete the space on the main floor.
The oversized upstairs bedrooms offer flexibility for guests, hobbies, or your dream home office setup. There’s also a refreshed full bathroom upstairs with reglazed tub and new flooring plus large linen closet. The remodeled basement offers endless possibilities – cozy up by the gas fireplace in the ultimate family room retreat plus an expansive recreation room for fun and games. A half bath as well as large laundry room plus storage complete this floor. And when it comes to parking, you’ll be spoiled with off-street parking for four cars plus a detached one-car garage – a true rarity!
Let’s not forget the exterior: the beautiful slate roof is as durable as it is eye-catching, tying together the home’s unique charm with long-lasting quality. And the back patio is perfect for outdoor entertaining.
3918 17th Place NE offers an incredible opportunity to own a home that combines timeless character with updates. Don’t miss out—come see it for yourself and fall in love!
