    First time on the market in over 40 years! Welcome to 516 56th St NE — a rare opportunity to own a well-maintained home with incredible upside in the heart of Deanwood. This 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home was originally designed as a 4-bedroom, 1-bath layout, with two bedrooms thoughtfully combined to create a spacious owner’s room.
