Just outside, a brick terrace offers the perfect spot for a morning coffee or an intimate dinner surrounded by greenery. Inside, vintage wood floors, a marble-tiled bathroom with walk-in shower, and a delightful brick fireplace (decorative) add timeless appeal. The sunlit upstairs bedroom, with vaulted ceilings and views into the tree canopy, creates a dreamy retreat, while the bonus office provides the perfect spot for creative projects or work-from-home days.

Washington idyll offers the best of both worlds: a peaceful sanctuary with an urban soul. Come fall in love.
