Property Description
Welcome to this beautiful and thoughtfully updated home in American University Park. It combines timeless character with fresh, modern living and backs directly to Turtle Park on a quiet, charming street. Open Saturday and Sunday! A rare expanded foyer with a built-in bench and generous coat closet sets a gracious tone. Beyond it, freshly refinished hardwood floors carry through bright, airy interiors. Across the south-facing rear of the home, a wall of windows and doors fills the rooms with natural light and frames serene views of the park. A wood-burning fireplace anchors the living room, and the window-wrapped dining and family rooms make an elegant setting for gatherings of every size. The modern chef's kitchen is as beautiful as it is functional, with sleek cabinetry, abundant pantry storage, bar seating and a sunny eat-in area. It opens to a large private deck overlooking the park, a peaceful backdrop for entertaining or quiet evenings at home. The primary suite is a true retreat, with a charming entry with seating area and a spacious walk-in closet. Its marble-tiled bath has a double vanity, a soaking tub and a spa-like shower with body jets and a built-in bench. Two additional bedrooms and a renovated full bathroom complete the upper level. The walk-out lower level adds flexibility, with two recreation spaces, a fourth bedroom, a full bath and direct access to the backyard. A large exterior storage room provides space for bikes and seasonal gear. The home is move-in ready. Every bathroom has been fully renovated, and other updates include a new HVAC system, many recently replaced windows, designer lighting and hardware, a new refrigerator, new washer and dryer, and countless others. Outside, established landscaping and an extra-long driveway complete this feature-packed home. It sits moments from the Tenleytown Metro and from the shops and restaurants of Spring Valley and AU Park, including neighborhood favorite Millie's. It's a rare park-side setting in one of Northwest Washington's most beloved neighborhoods.
