About This Home

As of July 2025

Major price reduction. This incredible, sun-lit unit is priced below comparables in Forest Hills in DC, one of the best addresses in Washington, known for stately traditional apartments. This Sun-filled home is a corner unit so benefits from the extra windows and a bright solarium with a lovely view. The configuration of the living room, dining room and kitchen grouped together gives a more open feel, instead of all rooms being in a linear organization. This allows for more light to enter the living room from the dining room with the large dining room windows facing the entry to the Living Room, and the Solarium windows to shine into the Dining Room through the glass panes in the French doors to the Solarium. The walls have been prepared and painted with a calming light grey. The bathrooms were upgraded within a couple of years. Every bedroom has a ceiling fan. The heating/AC cabinets have been refurbished, and the lovely warm Hardwood floors have been sanded and refinished to a gloss. Along with the large Dining Room, the kitchen has a Breakfast area with a large sunny window. The Primary Bedroom is made more private with its own long hallway. The primary bedroom has two large closets, two large windows and a private bathroom with show stall. The second bedroom is off the entry foyer, and has its own entrance to the second bathroom, making the second bedroom feel link a primary bedroom. Yet that second bathroom has a second entrance to the hallway so visitors do not have to go through bedroom. There is a large built-in shelving in the entrance foyer, and the private hallway to the primary bedroom has additional shelves and two more closets. In addition to all those closets is a separate storage bin in the basement. Every floor has laundry facilities as well as trash chutes and two elevators. The building is optimally situated along bus routes on Connecticut Ave, with a circular drive way for drop offs and a stately entrance to a warm inviting sitting are inside. While there is no on-site parking currently, the seller is offering up to $900 credit for renting parking in a local building - this is based on the $150 per month for parking at the Saratoga, 4601 Connecticut Ave NW. The Buyer is welcome to select another option as they choose. There is also the possibility of getting on a wait list for a parking spot in a private lot adjacent to the main parking spot. PETs are allowed, restricted to 2 pets. each weighing not more than 35 lbs. Overall, a wonderful and highly convenient place to call home.
