About This Home
As of February 2025Bring Back the Charm of This Brightwood Classic! This interior attached rowhome offers an incredible opportunity to transform a classic property into your vision. Ideal for a first-time investor, developer, or owner-occupant looking to build sweat equity, this home is brimming with possibilities. Choose a budget-friendly renovation to preserve the existing floor plan, complete with a large kitchen, separate living and dining areas, and original hardwood floors, or reimagine the space as a modern marvel by opening up the layout for contemporary living. The rear of the home offers space to add a sun deck off the kitchen, expanding your outdoor living options. Skip the underpinning. The lower level, featuring generous ceiling height and a separate entrance, offers endless possibilities to create a mother-in-law suite/ADU, legal second unit, or additional living space.
This property also features rare two-car parking at the rear, accessible via an alleyway, and a welcoming covered front porch. Located in an established, tree-lined neighborhood, the home is minutes from Walmart, Rock Creek Park Golf Course, trails, and shopping. Commuting is simple with easy access to both Green Line and Red Line Metro stations with parking. Surrounded by multiple schools, including charter options, this home is perfectly positioned for families and professionals alike. Check the comps and see the true equity potential—this could be your next home run. With good bones and endless potential, this Brightwood gem is ready to shine again. Sold AS-IS.
