Stunning Victorian rowhouse in Bloomingdale, originally built in 1895, has been modernly updated and is loaded with charm! Spectacular 11 foot high ceilings, exposed brick walls, recently updated kitchen (2021), a new heating/cooling system (2022), multiple outdoor living spaces, 1-car parking, and a lower level in-law suite for long-term guests, or potential Airbnb or rental opportunity! Upon walking through the entry vestibule you'll be greeted to an open floor plan, with refinished original hardwood floors, custom built-in shelving, a main floor powder room, and a large front bay window that allows the entire living space to bask in sunlight. The recently updated kitchen includes quartz countertops, custom wood cabinets, and stainless appliances including a gas range, and a custom wood/steel pot rack that perfectly completes the space. Head upstairs to the bedroom level and you'll find a large primary bedroom with two large closets, and plenty of room for a sitting area or home office space, in addition to a spacious 2nd bedroom also including dual closets, a recently updated shared bathroom (2020), a 2nd floor laundry closet, and a sensational stained-glass skylight window in the hallway. The finished lower level in-law suite oozes with potential for rental income, and includes an updated kitchen with stainless appliances, another full bathroom, a dedicated heating/cooling system (mini-split installed in 2022), nearly 8 foot high ceilings, and both front and rear exterior doors. Head outside and you'll find the East-facing fenced front patio is the perfect place for a morning sit, and the extra large rear deck is a glorious place for an evening meal as the sun sets to the West. The recently redone brick parking pad is gated and plenty large enough for at least one car, or it could double as another outdoor living space. A large custom-built storage shed under the deck completes the outdoor space! As much as you won't want to leave this amazing home, you'll also enjoy being within steps of Big Bear Cafe, and the Bloomingdale Farmer's Market, only a couple of blocks from Red Hen, Bacio Pizzeria, Aroi Thai, and Boundary Stone, and within a short walk of Union Market, NOMA, U Street, and the McMillan Park development due to open in late 2024 (retail, restaurants, residences, and more)! An easy walk to two metro lines -- red (NoMA) and green (Shaw/U St) -- and an easy bike commute to downtown, or out of the city by car on Route 50. This is truly a Bloomingdale gem, and you don't want to miss it!
