This turnkey Petworth rowhome is just steps to Sherman Circle, Metro, restaurants, shops, parks, and more. Custom moldings and trim, oak floors, recessed lighting, and designer finishes, all hallmarks of award-winning developer Nantucket Holdings, create a serene environment spread over three levels.

Quartz countertops, a breakfast bar, stainless steel appliances, and access to the private back deck encourage guests to linger longer during gatherings and dining al fresco. Storage and a main-floor powder room for ultimate convenience. The sun-filled second floor enjoys multiple skylights, three bright bedrooms (two, plus one extra for a den or guest room), including the owner’s suite with cathedral ceilings and an en suite bathroom with dual sinks and a sizable shower. There is also a second full bath, and a convenient in-unit washer / dryer. The pristine lower level has its own private rear entrance, a large family room with a wet bar and wine refrigerator, storage space, as well as the fourth bedroom and an updated hall full bath. The backyard includes the deck, grassy play space, storage, and secure off-street parking with custom rollup alley door. Inbounds for John Lewis Elementary. Welcome home!

Petworth: The vibrant Petworth neighborhood delivers desirable amenities such as sidewalk dining, retail/shopping, restaurants, family-friendly open spaces, and a few of DC's "Best Of" hot spots, including the Timber Pizza, Menya Hosaki, Cinder BBQ, Qualia Coffee, and more. Pick up dinner at Yes! Organic Market, the Safeway, or catch a class at the newly renovated Petworth recreation center and playground or Sherman Circle.
