Welcome home to this classic end-unit DC row house where traditional charm meets modern aesthetic. High ceilings, hardwood floors, original tile and wood work, custom built-ins, a cozy fireplace and updated kitchen are waiting for you in this amazing home. The main floor features a welcoming vestibule with original tile work. Enter into the sun-filled living room with a cozy gas fireplace for gathering or entertaining. Lots of extra storage for games, books, puzzles or other entertainment hidden away under the staircase with its original newel post and trim work. A large pocket door adds charm and character (and separation when needed) between the living room and spacious dining room where you can fit a table large enough to easily sit 8 guests. You will love the gorgeous custom-built floor to ceiling cabinetry offering tons of hidden storage as well as a place to display your favorite treasures. The dining room opens seamlessly into the updated kitchen with shaker cabinetry, new countertops and appliances. Step out of the kitchen onto the first of two decks where you will love having a place to sit and enjoy your morning coffee or an evening cocktail. Outside, enjoy the large, deep yard perfect for gatherings and relaxation, along with the convenience of off-street parking. Hidden laundry in the kitchen and a half powder bath complete the main level. Heading upstairs you will enjoy a spacious primary ensuite with a clawfoot tub and walk-in shower. The charm and character of this home continues with the transom bedroom doors. A skylight floods the upper level hallway with sunlight where you will access another full bathroom and two additional bedrooms. The rear bedroom has access to the upper level deck. This home has a completely separate lower level self-contained apartment with its own kitchen, full bathroom, bedroom, in-unit laundry and a COO. This versatile space is perfect if you want additional rental income, a comfortable space for in-laws, an au pair or long term guests but could also serve as a quiet sanctuary for a home business or studio particularly since you cannot access the main house from this level. Located in the vibrant Columbia Heights neighborhood - the best of urban living awaits you just outside the door. Discover a variety of restaurants, shops, and eateries as well as the convenience of the Columbia Heights Metro Station just 4 blocks away. Professional photos coming 8/1
