About This Home

As of September 2022

This spacious fully renovated top to bottom row home in the HOT Petworth neighborhood will not last. The developers did not spare a dime on this property from the Hardwood floors throughout all levels, to the gourmet kitchen equipped with quartz counter tops, custom cabinets, stainless steel appliances, wine cooler and a large island providing seating for 6-8 guests. The kitchen flows into the backyard and the impressive, covered deck which is great for back-yard BBQ’s and entertaining guests year-round. The large lot is fully fenced in and provides Private Off-Street Parking in the back of the home for two vehicles. If you love gardening, this is the perfect home for you with plenty of gardening space in the front, side, and backyard. The TOP FLOOR private Roof Deck is something you don't want to miss with plenty of space for entertaining guests or simply enjoying the sun and views.
