City living made easy at the intersection of Brightwood, Takoma, and Brookland!
This bright and inviting 3-bedroom, 2-bath end-unit rowhome checks all the boxes: an open, updated kitchen for everyday living, three generously sized bedrooms, and a finished lower level with a cozy family room and kitchenette, perfect for guests, movie nights, or work-from-home flexibility. Add off-street parking, an adorable yard, and you’ve got a home that truly delivers on location, lifestyle, and livability.
Thoughtful updates throughout include a newly rebuilt three-season sunporch, sound-reducing window system on the second floor, smart appliances, and a fenced backyard, making the home feel polished, modern, and truly move-in ready. Whether you are hosting friends, relaxing with family, or working from home, every space feels intentional and well cared for.
A quick walk through the park takes you straight to Fort Totten Metro for an easy commute or hop on the Metropolitan Branch Trail for biking and weekend adventures. Several markets, restaurants, and neighborhood cafés are close at hand, along with Walmart and Aldi for added convenience. With transit, amenities, and green space all within minutes, this home delivers a true city-living experience from the moment you arrive. All you have to do is move in and make it your own.
