About This Home

As of August 2023

Charming and meticulously maintained end-unit town home in the heart of Del Ray! Just one block to Swings Coffee Roaster and 3 to The Avenue, you cannot beat this location! Walk through the front door and step into the light-filled living room with hardwood floors and recessed lighting that flows into the dining area and kitchen. The kitchen boasts tall shaker style cabinetry and new stainless steel appliances, including a Frigidaire refrigerator (2023), Frigidaire gas stove, oven + built in air fryer (2023), and a Bosch dishwasher (2021). The kitchen extends to a great bonus room with custom cabinetry for lots of storage space, countertops, shelving, and a Fridgaire dual zone stainless steel wine/bar fridge - 38 bottle capacity (2020). A perfect extension of kitchen space, this room can also be used as a dining area, entertaining or sitting area for your morning coffee. Look through the oversized custom Provia window (2023) to the large, manicured, fenced-in backyard and wooden deck! You will love entertaining inside or out this summer! Upstairs you will find two spacious bedrooms with hardwoods and an updated full bathroom. Head downstairs to the lower level to a recreation room (with egress) which makes a great living room or guest retreat. The updated and large full bath boasts a quartz countertop vanity and penny-tiled glass shower. Rounding out this level is a laundry space and plentiful storage. You will love living in the coveted Del Ray! Walk to the Avenue where you can shop charming local shops or dine at one of many restaurants. A commuter’s dream, this home is blocks from the metro, and just minutes to I-395, Reagan National Airport and DC. Welcome Home!
