About This Home

As of May 2021

RARELY AVAILABLE, ONE OF A KIND OFFERING This restored, historic urban farmhouse sits high on a hill with panoramic views over Brookland, yet is a short stroll to restaurants and shops. Careful renovations retain the charm and character of the original house while incorporating modern conveniences. The extremely rare 15,360 sqft (0.35 acre) lot provides many possibilities to expand the house and/or recreation spaces around the landscaped property. Enter from a relaxing front porch into a bright entry hall connecting to both formal and casual entertainment spaces: a formal living room connected to a den through restored pocket doors, a formal dining room, convenient powder room, and a screened sun porch. Overlooking the garden, the modern farmhouse kitchen has been tastefully appointed with imported Spanish floor tile, white Cambria quartz counters, deep farm sink, mid-century light fixtures and a big pantry any chef will love. SS appliances include a GE five-burner gas range with two ovens, GE microwave, Bosch dishwasher and KitchenAid cafe door, bottom freezer refrigerator. The bright and airy upper level is wrapped in windows with treetop view and hosts three very spacious bedrooms with surprising closet space. The primary ensuite bedroom has dual closets, plus an updated bath with a tile stall shower and dual vanities. Two additional corner bedrooms provide ample space for king size beds. A full guest bath with tub, a bright office nook and a utility closet with full size washer / dryer round out the upper level. Restored hardwood floors and upgraded lighting on dimmers throughout. Outside, the rear terraced garden includes a full-sun vegetable & herb garden, a tool shed and an elevated deck large enough for outdoor seating and dining. An appx 300 sqft climate controlled out building makes a perfect work-from-home office, gym or play space. Two-car, off-street parking. About 1/2 mi. to 12th St. dining and groceries, and less than 1 mi. to the Brookland CUA Metro.
