4926 Sedgwick St NW, Washington, DC 20016

Just shy of a quarter acre, this enchanting property sits at the end of one of the most coveted cul-de-sacs in Spring Valley. The beautiful grey-beige stone house is surrounded by gardens, two extensive patios, and stone steps leading to multiple paths through the wooded area that feels like a stroll in the park. There is even an in-ground fire pit to enjoy in all seasons. The side and back gardens are totally fenced and provide welcoming privacy and seclusion. The length of the back exterior has an expanse of windows presenting a panorama that few city dwellers can wake up to. This scenery can be taken in from the kitchen and its eating area as well as the dining and living rooms. These picture windows along with all the other recently replaced windows in the house not only display the beautiful trees, blooming shrubs, and pots of varying flowers but also flood the rooms on all levels with brilliant sunlight. Entering the brightly colored front door, one is greeted with a hallway that not only sends a glimpse of the back gardens but also the elegant living room with a wood-burning fireplace and built-ins. Adjacent to the living room, is a dining room which the current owner uses as a family/sitting room. This room then opens onto the breakfast area/sunroom with its plethora of windows along with a glass door leading to the winding stone staircase ending at one of the patios. These rooms also provide access to the recently renovated kitchen that is another room-with-a-view with its semicircle of windows. The kitchen’s glass door to the exterior presents a terrace and two slate staircases. The first floor also has a study or bedroom, depending on one’s preference. The room is currently used as the dining room. There is an ensuite half-bath, but it can quickly be changed into a full bath because a tub lies behind a door in the bathroom. This room has an abundance of built-ins, a wood-burning fireplace, and two closets, one of which abuts the back of the hall closet. As the staircase winds to the second level, a lovely bedroom with built-ins, large closet, and vaulted ceilings appears. Next to it is a second bedroom with built-ins and a closet; this room can serve as an office. Both rooms have easy access to the sizable, updated hall bathroom. The primary bedroom is ensuite with two big closets. The primary bath, also recently renovated, has a separate tub and extra storage space. All bedrooms on this level have ceiling fans. In the hallway, an access ladder leads to unbelievable storage available in a floored walkable attic. The lower level is exceptionally large. Most of this floor is on ground level, with an abundance of windows and sunlight and access to the exterior. The major part can easily be used as an in-law suite. It has its own laundry area, bathroom, and fully equipped kitchen. There is a large living area which is treated as both recreation and family rooms. The spacious bedroom has three windows and a fireplace plus plenty of space in its closet. The lower area can be accessed from the back garden, main level, and garage. At the bottom of the stairs is another laundry area separated from the apartment, which has additional storage possibilities and an exercise room. There is also a large outdoor storage room accessed from one of the patios. Besides considerable storage space, the attached garage accommodates two cars, and the driveway allows more off-street parking space.
