About This Home

As of December 2023

A Palisades Expanded Bungalow Charmer!! Nestled in the Heart of the Palisades on Idyllic "Storybook"
Dorsett Place. This Iconic Classic 1925 Bungalow has been updated with spacious upper level not seen from the street. The entry level features an inviting front porch, handsome hardwood floors, high ceilings, numerous built-in bookshelves, open eat-in country kitchen with stainless appliances, separate dining room, home office/4th bedroom, and a full bath. Indoor/ Outdoor Living is at its best with access from both the dining room and kitchen to the deck and stairs to the fully fenced yard below. Garden steps lead to the secluded patio area of the lower garden, perfect for a fire pit and dining alfresco. The detached garage is accessed from the rear entrance off of Carolina Place. The upper level features three good-sized bedrooms with large windows and skylight, drenching the house with light, a walk-in closet in the Primary Bedroom, and full bath. The lower level opens walk-out onto the rear yard, has laundry room, utility room, plus extra storage areas.
All of the attractions of the Palisades are nearby... the playing fields of the Palisades Rec Center, the Capital Crescent Trail, the C&O Canal Towpath, the Potomac River, Fletcher's Boathouse, and all the shops and restaurants of the Palisades are blocks away, including the beloved Sunday Farmers' Market.
