Nestled on a quiet, one-block stretch of 50th Street in the heart of Spring Valley, this classic brick Colonial offers the perfect blend of privacy, convenience, and exceptional outdoor living. This is a rare find in DC, a residence that sits on such a peaceful street while being just a short stroll from neighborhood favorites including Millie's restaurant, Compass Coffee, Wagshal's delicatessen, Crate & Barrel, CVS, medical offices, vet office, and Metrobus service . With a Walk Score of 95+, this location is truly a walker's paradise, offering unmatched convenience in one of Washington's most sought-after neighborhoods. The backyard offers an exceptional setting for outdoor enjoyment in the heart of the city. Designed for both relaxation and gathering with family and friends, it features an in-ground pool with a 9.5' diving well, an expansive flagstone patio, stone seat wall, and a double-faced Ipe deck overlooking the pool and tastefully landscaped grounds. Mature trees, flowering shrubs, and perennial gardens provide exceptional privacy, affording a peaceful retreat on this quiet street that can be enjoyed throughout the seasons. Inside, the home offers generous living spaces with large room sizes and a floor plan ideal for both everyday living and formal entertaining. The traditional center-hall layout includes a spacious living room, dining room, family room, expanded main-level office, and a large table-space kitchen featuring custom cherry cabinetry, a center granite island with seating, and access to the rear Ipe deck, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. Hardwood floors and abundant natural light enhance the warmth and character of the home. The upper level features three spacious bedrooms and three bathrooms, providing comfort and privacy for family and guests. The walk-out lower level offers direct access to the pool and patio areas and includes a recreation room, a fourth bedroom, and a full bathroom, making it ideal for guests, an au pair, or extended family. Additional features include an attached one-car garage and an additional off-street parking space at the foot of the driveway. Lovingly cared for by only two families over the past six decades, this original W.C. & A.N.
