About This Home
In the highly desirable American University Park neighborhood, this expanded Craftsman style bungalow seamlessly blends timeless 1920s charm with modern comfort and generous space. Spanning over 2,900 square feet above grade, the home features four bedrooms plus a den or guest suite and three and a half bathrooms, including an upstairs primary suite with stunning treetop views. Sunlight pours into every room through generous windows, highlighting the warmth of the hardwood floors, solid doors, and detailed trim that preserve the home's period character. The renovated kitchen boasts quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and abundant cabinetry, providing a seamless connection to the dining and living rooms, perfect for daily living and entertaining. A spacious, sunlit family room with French doors opens to a wide deck that overlooks one of the neighborhood's most extraordinary backyards. Set on one of the largest lots in AU Park at over 15,000 square feet in size, it feels like a private park with mature trees, gardens, and open lawn areas that invite outdoor gatherings and peaceful evenings. The unfinished lower level offers excellent storage, a laundry area, and a separate entrance, allowing for flexibility in future use. The long driveway and one car garage provide convenient off street parking, with plentiful additional on street parking available for guests. Updated with new windows (2024) and a new roof (2021), this home combines classic character with modern comfort and efficiency. Situated on a quiet tree lined street, this beautifully expanded home reflects the charm of its neighborhood and the convenience of its ideal location, just a few blocks from Turtle Park and Janney Elementary, as well as various local spots like Millie’s, Wagshal’s, Bluestone Lane, and Starbucks. The Friendship Heights and Tenleytown Metro stations are approximately one mile away. With thoughtful updates, a generous layout, and exceptional outdoor space, this home is a rare offering in one of Northwest DC’s most sought after neighborhoods. Welcome home.
