About This Home

As of September 2022

Located on a quiet intersection on a grassy corner is 304 Aspen Street, NW #304, an Art Deco jewel, waiting for its new owner! This completely renovated one-bedroom home in the Whittier Gardens Condominiums is on the top floor and provides lovely tree-top views from all rooms.-----

Immediately upon entering you’ll notice windows from two exposures bathing the home in light and reflecting off the all-new wide-plank hardwood floors. The spacious living room connects to the dining area allowing an ideal flow for easy entertaining!-----

An arched entry leads to the newly renovated kitchen – offering Shaker-style cabinets, stainless steel appliances including a gas range, granite countertops. Just off the kitchen is the sunroom with a delightful arched window on one side and a wall of windows on the other – it’s ideal for an office or den. There is also a separate back entrance through the sunroom that gives access directly to the unit. -----

The roomy bedroom has windows on two sides and space for a king-sized bed and dressers. Across from the bedroom is the fully-renovated ceramic tile bathroom with yet another window. This unit is complete with an in-unit washer and dryer (to be installed prior to closing!), central air conditioning and ample closets. The building provides extra-storage space (7'6"D x 7'5"T x 2'3"W), bike storage and allows pets under 25-pounds too.-----

Perfectly located, this unit is only blocks away from shopping, many restaurants, multiple parks, the Takoma Community Center (with a pool), a year-round farmer’s market, the Walter Reed redevelopment project and the Takoma Park Metro station nearby. -----
