Originally built in 1918, now with renovated all white kitchen and up-dates that preserved the original chestnut architectural trim and hardwood Oak flooring while creating open spaces as well as bonus space for our new 'work at home' accommodation. Elegant coffered dining room ceiling and oversized windows in the connecting open living and dining spaces give this property a surprisingly contemporary feel and useful flow for today's lifestyle. There are baths on each floor and the original main level bedroom is a perfect office, den, guest, or toy space. Spacious lower level has above grade windows and direct access to the rear yard, as well as accommodating the laundry and providing a private space for guest/au pair or additional project/work space. The rear porch overlooks the fenced garden and storage or sports car garage. One mile from Petworth metro and urban village amenities, 2 miles from Takoma Park metro and village market and amenities. Centrally located in NW DC: drive ten minutes to Takoma Park or Tenleytown, Shaw or Silver Spring...
