Property Description
Get even more for your money - more living space, more yard, and more charm - with this single family, detached Craftsman less than a mile from The Parks at Walter Reed. Built in 1909 and substantially renovated in 2011, this home retains its traditional character while providing modern comforts.
A deep front porch is set high above the street for better breezes. A real entry foyer in the front and a mud room with built-ins in the back make coming and going convenient and easy. The entertaining level has a large living room with coffered ceilings and a wood-burning fireplace. The adjoining dining room is wrapped in windows and easily fits a table for 8-10 beneath a gorgeous contemporary chandelier. The open kitchen has white shaker cabinets, granite and marble counters, two sinks, high-end appliances, a glass-door pantry and a coat closet, and a discrete powder room.
Continue the party outdoors, just off the kitchen, on the flagstone patio with lots of room for seating and grilling. The HUGE 8,125 sqft lot provides a rear lawn that is partly shaded by towering trees and surrounded by lush landscaping and a wood privacy fence. An off-street parking pad with room for two cars sits just behind the gate.
Upstairs, a primary suite accommodates a king-sized bed and has two deep closets and an en-suite bathroom. This gorgeous primary bath has a double-sink vanity, a tiled shower and a free-standing tub. Two other big bedrooms share a second full-bath with a tub shower and window. All the bedrooms on this level have great closet storage and windows on two sides for balanced light.
The converted attic space provides two additional bedrooms sharing a third full-bath with a tub shower. These bedrooms have inviting window seats, built-in book shelves and plenty of closet space.
The lower level with a rear exterior entrance has 7’ ceilings and provides flexible space, including an open living room, a laundry room, a sixth bedroom, a full bath with tub shower, and a bonus room with a window and closet perfect for storage, hobby space or a gym.
