I was not the previous listing agent, and this relaunch comes with a renewed strategy, updated presentation, and thoughtful improvements that truly change the feel of the property. This beautifully refreshed, freshly painted 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath row-home with two en-suite bathrooms, 2-car parking, and modern systems located in the heart of Petworth, Washington, DC. This move-in-ready home features a highly desirable layout with 3 bedrooms, each with its own private full bathroom, plus a main-level half bath, making it ideal for multi-generational living, roommates, or house hacking opportunities. The kitchen includes a gas stove, perfect for home chefs, and opens to a functional living and dining space. Major systems have been updated, including an electric HVAC system, electric furnace, and all windows (2017), providing comfort and peace of mind. The home has also been freshly painted throughout, offering a clean, modern feel. A rare find in DC: this property offers 2-car off-street parking with a private driveway and garage door, adding convenience, security, and long-term value.
