Thoughtfully maintained over the years, the home balances timeless character with meaningful updates and opportunities for future expansion. Step inside to a welcoming living room with a wood-burning fireplace, a formal dining room, and an expansive first-floor addition featuring a large open-concept kitchen and family room. The entryway provides a coat closet, additional hallway storage, and a convenient half bath. Gleaming hardwood floors flow throughout both the main and upper levels, creating warmth and continuity. A recently enclosed porch serves as a true highlight—designed for year-round enjoyment with sliding windows that open for a screened-in feel, plus heated flooring and a ceiling heat fan. Most windows have been replaced with quality Andersen Renewal units, and the owners added a decorative portico and a brick bay flower bed, enhancing the home’s curb appeal. Upstairs are two spacious bedrooms, including a primary bedroom that spans the width of the home with three closets and charming street views. The second bedroom enjoys southern and eastern exposures overlooking the backyard, while a vintage hall bath completes the level. The lower level offers excellent potential for a guest suite, playroom, or hobby space. It currently includes cabinetry and the former stove from the original kitchen, along with a quarter bath, laundry area, and boiler for radiator heat. Outdoors, the level backyard is perfect for entertaining, gardening, or pets, featuring a large storage shed and southern exposure ideal for play and planting. Across the alley, residents enjoy access to a newly renovated practice field. Preliminary architectural findings suggest the potential to extend the second floor over the rear addition to create an additional bedroom and bathroom (buyers to verify). Ideally located just steps from Lafayette Elementary School and Park, 2822 Rittenhouse Street NW offers classic Chevy Chase charm, modern updates, and future potential—all on a picturesque block at an exceptional value.
