Ready for more space without leaving the city? Welcome to 504 Buchanan Street NW, a move in ready Petworth home offering the space, flexibility, outdoor living, and private parking that can be so hard to find in DC. Recently refreshed for the market, this home is ready to enjoy from day one. A mature front garden and quintessential DC front porch create a welcoming first impression, while the private backyard enjoys beautiful southern exposure, perfect for slow morning coffee, weekend entertaining, or finally growing that vegetable garden. Secure off street parking with a roll up garage door makes city living even easier. Inside, there is room to truly grow. Four bedrooms on the upper level provide incredible flexibility, including a light filled back bedroom that can easily adapt to how you live. Keep it as a bedroom, create a beautiful home office or dressing room, or convert it to an upstairs laundry room, with the necessary outlet already in place. On the main level, a full dining room and sunroom provide plenty of space to gather, entertain, and enjoy relaxed evenings at home. The finished lower level adds another dimension to the home with a private guest suite and kitchenette. Create a comfortable space for visiting family and friends, an in law or au pair suite, additional flex space, or explore the potential for future rental income, with the lower level having previously served as an Airbnb. For anyone ready to make the jump from condo living to a single family home, 504 Buchanan offers exactly the kind of space that makes the move worthwhile: multiple bedrooms, flexible living spaces, a private backyard, front porch, secure parking, and no major renovation project waiting for you after settlement. And then there is the location. Set on a residential Petworth block, you are close to the neighborhood destinations that make this part of DC so loved by the community, including the restaurants and shops along Upshur Street, neighborhood parks and green spaces, grocery options like Yes Organic and Safeway, and the Petworth Metro. Commuter bus lines on 5th Street, just steps from the home, provide even more ways to get around the city. While at home, Buchanan Street offers a quieter place to land at the end of the day. Space to grow. Room to work. A yard to garden. Parking for the car. A porch for morning coffee. And a Petworth location that keeps you connected to the city. 504 Buchanan Street NW is ready for what comes next. Schedule your tour today!
