The main level...Wonderful opportunity to own a corner lot located street front on prestigious 16th Street. This quintessential single family home in Shepherd Park is the epitome of traditional architecture, with extensive hardscape & perched upon a hill that makes the home distinct. Upon walking up, you are greeted with a beautiful stone walkway that ever so perfectly frames the front door. Upon entering, your eye is immediately drawn to the original hardwood floors that were recently refinished. The main level flows purposely from the formal living room to the dining room, followed by a massive family room and sunroom that features an indoor pool which is also a heated spa, then back towards the kitchen, office, and a long outdoor patio with a fully fenced in backyard. This home is meant for entertaining! Upstairs features 3 BR, 2FB, a massive walk-in master bedroom closet & a fourth level bedroom/multipurpose loft. In need of more space? The lower level has you covered! With an open recreation room, gym/storage area, laundry room, and full bathroom the possibilities are endless! To complete this unique home -a whole house generator, 1 car detached garage and plenty of street parking- rare for the location. Minutes from Rock Creek Park, Silver Spring, The Walter Reed Development and so much more!
