    M&T Bank DOES ALLOW SECOND MORTGAGES! Offers will be presented as they arrive each day until ratified.. Please note the Assumption Loan has a $775,000 balance. Stately Home on the Hill with Deep Yard and 2-Car Parking! This home has a ASSUMABLE INTEREST RATE of 2.375% and was featured on HGTV. Perched above the street and crowned by a stately Victorian facade, this residence makes its case before you reach the door. A tiered garden climbs to a gracious covered porch, the perfect perch for watching the neighborhood go by. Step inside as the expansive living and dining rooms unfold between walls of original exposed brick, creating a space that is as elegant as it is warm. Soaring ceilings and sun-filled front bay windows complete the scene, joined by a stylish powder room and a cleverly hidden closet. The gourmet kitchen is built for those who love to cook and entertain, with generous storage, abundant counter space for serving, and a wall of glass doors that floods the room with light and blurs the line between indoor and outdoor dining. Those doors open to a private garden oasis. An intimate upper wood deck sets the stage for alfresco dinners, while a few steps down, elegant hardscaping frames a lounge area wrapped in flowers and greenery in this gorgeous backyard with new masonry and fence fully enclosed for privacy. This deep, maintenance-free yard also offers a locked gate to a two-car parking pad off a wide alley, a rare luxury in the city. Upstairs, the exposed brick continues its story along the stairwell and hall. The south-facing primary bedroom spans the front of the home, bathed in light from a wall of windows. Two additional bedrooms, a hall bath, and a linen closet complete the level. The lower level adds 930 square feet of warm, inviting living space with its own rear entrance, a full bath, full-size washer and dryer, and a vast family room ready to serve as a guest suite, media room, home office, or whatever the next chapter calls for. And the location? Simply phenomenal. Within a few blocks in every direction, discover the exciting new Reservoir District to the east, the vibrant Shaw and U Street Corridor to the south, Columbia Heights to the west, and Petworth to the north, with Metro stations, shops, parks, and endless attractions all close at hand. History, light, and a garden retreat in one of the city's most connected neighborhoods. This is the one.
