    Welcome to 901 Butternut Street NW, a classic Takoma DC home just moments from The Parks at Walter Reed that somehow manages to feel both tucked away and incredibly connected. With its big front porch and thoughtful layout, this is the kind of home that gives you that neighborhood feel while still being right near everything you could want.Inside, the living room is warm and inviting with hardwood floors, plenty of windows, and a cozy fireplace that makes the whole space feel instantly like home. The kitchen has been updated with quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and plenty of storage, and it flows easily into a true dining room that’s ready for everything from weeknight dinners to hosting friends and holidays. One of the standout features here is the flexibility. There’s a main level bedroom with a walk-in closet and full bath nearby, making it ideal for guests, a home office, or anyone looking for main-level living. Upstairs, all three bedrooms are generously sized and each has a walk-in closet —something you rarely find in homes of this era. The third-level finished attic adds even more usable space and would make a perfect reading nook, playroom, or tucked-away office.The fully finished basement gives you room to spread out even more with space for a rec room, gym, guest setup, or additional work-from-home space, plus a full bath with a soaking tub that feels like a little escape at the end of the day. Outside, the fenced backyard with a pergola is set up perfectly for morning coffee, grilling with friends, or evenings around a fire pit. There’s also a one-car garage plus a two-car driveway —another huge bonus for city living. There are also owner solar panels to off-set your electric bills. And the location really speaks for itself. You’re close to parks and playgrounds and just around the corner from neighborhood favorites like JuneBerry, The Charmery, Whole Foods, and Starbucks, with easy access to buses on Georgia Ave and Takoma Metro Station. This is one of those homes that makes day-to-day life feel easy.
