If indoor/outdoor living with incredible sunrises and sunsets is what you seek - you’ve found your match in 4900 1st St NW. With the perfect blend of renovation and preservation, this home has been updated over time with keen attention to maintaining its soulful historic character. Sitting end-of-row and south-facing on a quaint street, 4900 greets with a BIG fenced green lot and lots of space to garden and run around. Enter through the front porch and step into the roomy living room with clean lines (no ugly bulkheads!) and two walls of windows. Charming arched doorways and hallways with original floors and trim take you to the stunning open kitchen/dining room. New appliances, countertops and cabinets adorn the space and a large dining island provides storage and style. The sun-drenched dining room makes room for entertaining and your 6 or 8 seat table. The sweetest half-bath with chic wallpaper and wainscotting is tucked just beyond the kitchen. Upstairs, you’ll find a primary bedroom large enough for the King bed and stacked with two closets for storage. Two additional bedrooms provide the options for additional sleeping areas, or a lovely WFH space. The upstairs full bath with tub shines with fresh tile and an updated vanity. Downstairs, you’ll find a rec room of your DREAMS! A big TV/Rec Room equipped with a stylish wet-bar and wine fridge begs you to lounge for movie-night or football Sundays. Around the corner, an additional full bathroom and HUGE laundry/storage room with custom shelving makes this level even more convenient. Walk out of either the first or basement level to find a perfect porch/patio awaiting. Your grilling and chilling just got an upgrade with lots of space for lounge furniture and a perfect view of the spacious side-yard. In the warmer months a mature rose garden with dahlias, peonies, and perennials, and climbing roses at the back make the space even more charming. Finally, a garage for 2 cars (plus your stuff!) offers off-street parking and additional storage.
