About This Home

AVAILABLE THIS WEEKEND ONLY!! The sellers are open to an offer this weekend only at a compelling price prior to doing a full property refresh, photos and staging. We have set an offer deadline of Monday at 12pm, after that (should we not get a compelling offer) the property will be pulled and listed again after July 4. Pre-Inspections encouraged. This home is perfect for someone that wants to get into this amazing neighborhood at a great price, someone who wants to do cosmetic updates themself, or a developer/end user with an appetite to do an expansion at some point. We encourage you to see this property in person. Vacant and easy to show.

The main floor features a spacious living area, an updated kitchen, a half bathroom and addition - perfect for home office or extra bedroom. Over the past 10 years, the kitchen, bathrooms, roof, HVAC, and hot water heater have all been replaced along with a number of other uprades, giving you peace of mind and move-in-ready ease. (see MLS docs for full list of upgrades)

This 3-bedroom, 2.5 bath home perfectly balances classic charm with thoughtful modern upgrades. Nestled in a prime Northwest DC location, this property offers both comfort and convenience—ideal for today’s lifestyle.

The home's outdoor space is a standout feature. Relax on the welcoming front porch, entertain on the large back deck, and enjoy the expansive backyard—perfect for gatherings, gardening, or play. - you really need to see this incredible back-yard in person. A one-car detached garage at the back of the lot can be used for off street parking or extra storage.

Ideally located between American University Park and Friendship Heights, this home is in a neighborhood known for its top-rated public schools. You're less than half a mile from the Metro, shops, and dining of Friendship Heights such as Whole Foods, Amazon Fresh, Joy by Seven Reasons, Capital Grille, and the Heights Food Hall. It is also close by to the restaurants and other amenities in Spring Valley.
