With three bedrooms, one and a half baths, and second-floor laundry, this home blends timeless character with modern updates, offering the perfect balance of charm and convenience. Step inside to be greeted by exposed brick walls and high ceilings, setting the tone for the home’s historic appeal. The spacious living areas feature newly finished floors (2021), recessed lighting (2021), and thoughtful updates throughout. The kitchen was fully renovated in 2021 with all-new stainless steel appliances (New Dishwasher 2023), stylish hardware, new cabinetry, and modern fixtures - ideal for both everyday cooking and entertaining.

Location is everything, and this home is just two blocks from Cool Spring Park and Reservoir, one block from Coterie Cafe + Kitchen and a short walk to Trolley Square’s shopping, dining, and nightlife, close enough to enjoy, but far enough to avoid the noise. This home is move-in ready and offers flexibility for both homeowners and investors, with rental potential (owner at one time had it rented for $2,100/month).
