About This Home
As of April 2023Sun-filled 4-level, 3 BD, 2 BA, all-brick, side-hall colonial on one of the quietest streets and prettiest blocks in American University Park!
Main level has a coat closet, living room with wood-burning fireplace, formal dining room with access to wonderful covered porch overlooking backyard. Delightfully renovated and sun-drenched kitchen has stainless appliances, tall windows, and glass door also overlooking the deep, level, fenced backyard with double gates to alley. (Former garage was removed.) Upper level has 3 bedrooms, 1 renovated bath, and a climatized, enclosed porch (bonus room!) which could be used as a sunlit home office or sitting area, or perhaps a future 2nd bathroom upstairs.
Fixed hall stairs lead to floored, carpeted attic loft retreat with high gable and two windows. Renovated finished lower level has full bath, laundry/utility room, and a spacious recreation room with private, outside entrance.
Gas-fired forced air heating. Electric central air-conditioning. Upgraded windows and tall ceilings! The extra height of the ceilings is typical of the construction in the neighborhood prior to 1940. NOTE: Public Tax Record incorrectly stated year built as 1951, but actually it was 1937.
Convenient to Spring Valley shopping center, tons of restaurants, Friendship ("Turtle" Park), Tenley Metro, Tenley Library, Janney Elementary, Deal Middle School, and Jackson-Reed High School. A perfect place to call home!
