BEAUTIFUL INSIDE! New photos coming soon. Listing goes Active January 10, 2020. Updated in 2019, this tastefully renovated classic Wardman row home boasts four spacious bedrooms, three full baths, a bonus den with French doors on the main floor, plus a second kitchen and second washer/dryer units in the fully-renovated walk-out basement. This charming home sits on the edges of Petworth and Brightwood on sought-after Kansas Ave less than two blocks from the red-hot Kennedy Street redevelopment corridor. The home combines classic details with a clean and contemporary feel. Enjoy over 2,000 square feet of living space on three fully-finished levels. All four bedrooms are large enough to hold a queen bed and still have room for a separate sitting area! Sunny master bedroom suite with southeastern view has extra deep, double closets plus a separate linen closet, as well as a deep soaking tub and original skylight in the master bath. Very ample closet space in the other two bedrooms on the top floor. Giant custom shower in hallway bath. Original white oak hardwood floors throughout the top two levels have been beautifully sanded and stained in a rich grey. Crisp and modern white-on-white paint palette throughout. Gracious living room leads to an open-concept stainless steel kitchen/dining area which features: soft-close white maple cabinets, 6-foot island, durable countertops in Fantasy Brown marble, high-end KitchenAide slip-in gas oven, plus a wall of dramatic custom backsplash with range hood. TWO stackable washer-dryer units on top floor landing as well as in the basement. Fenced-in back yard has keyed security gate and a 40-foot slate driveway that is long enough for TWO tandem off-street parking spaces. Inviting front porch looks onto a Redbud blossoming tree and ornamental grasses in front yard. The piece de resistance of this gracious home is the income-producing 700-sq ft open-concept basement that was gut renovated inch-to-inch. This spectacular sun-kissed space boasts 7x5 ft sliding windows which look directly onto the backyard, a second living room plus an additional bedroom, a second full stainless steel kitchen (with white maple cabinets, full electric oven, full fridge, above-range microwave, sink and garbage disposal), a second stackable washer/dryer unit, recessed lights throughout, modern baseboard heat, generous hall closet, private rear entrance that also lets in lots of natural light, plus connecting staircase to main house. This is no ordinary basement, it feels like a garden apt! Basement rented for $1,650 a month on year-long lease. Live upstairs and rent downstairs to recoup much of your mortgage costs! Walk 0.9 miles to Fort Totten Metro or take any of the convenient buses as little as two blocks away. Walk to dining hot spots on Kennedy St including ANXO Cidery, The Library Tavern, Morelands Tavern and Jackie Lees. And finally, no-maintenance no-cost solar panels have made recent Pepco bills as low as $15/month. This one checks all the boxes! Buyers are welcome to conduct inspections before submitting an offer.
