Sunny townhouse, 4 BR, 4.5 BA, at the pinnacle of Fort Lincoln, a former Civil War fort, recently subdivided for development by Ryan Homes, one of the nation's leading home-builders. The townhouse is one of the tallest residential building in NE DC, immediately facing the former Fort, and at distance, Catholic University, and College Park. It is the premier development of Ryan Homes in DC, is nearby a huge, new Shopping Center, and is the foremost sub-neighborhood of the nearby Ryan Homes sub-neighborhoods, all of which are very well-built and new. All of the front windows look onto Fort Lincoln, facing against where the cannons were to fight the Confederacy. Fort Lincoln's former fort is now a large national park, with huge grassy areas facing 3139, a neighborhood center, and a public tennis court. Due to this major new development in NE DC, the site is only about 1/2 mile from Route 50 access, and 3 blocks (5 min walk) from Route 1. The major Shopping Center, acres and acres, is 5 blocks away, a 8-minute walk. The Shopping Center is spread out like a suburban shopping center, the only one of such that exists in DC. There is a big Costco (with a gas station), Lowe's, Pet Smart, and a large variety of restaurants and stores. There are no single-family homes in the development. This townhouse includes luxury amenities of all sorts. The primary living space is on the second floor, which is open-air, from north to south, including living room, kitchen, dining room, a half-bath, high ceilings, top-to-bottom walk-out double sliding-doors, and a balcony suitable for many tables and chairs, such as for an outdoor dinner or a party. The entire 2nd floor has hardwood floors. The kitchen has all expected quality appliances, including, but not limited to, a large stainless-steel refrigerator, a stainless steel dishwasher, marble countertops, kitchen island, and a top quality microwave oven. There is very large cupboard space, a pantry area, and a large glass-facing, built-in china cabinet, with drawers. The third floor contains a large master bedroom, with a large walk-in closet, a laundry room, and another large bedroom with a good-size closet. Each bedroom has its own private, full-size bathroom. The fourth floor is a large bedroom / loft area, looking north, with wall-length, floor-length windows, its own full bathroom, and a large fenced balcony overlooking Catholic University and College Park, MD. This could be a party-room, if not a bedroom. The first floor is a full-size bedroom, facing the Fort, and has its own private full bathroom. The bedroom can alternatively be used as an office. The north side of the first floor is a two-car garage, an entry room, and a utility room. The house already is already wired with Verizon wireless, TV and phone connections. The entire house is sprinklered, in case of a fire. The house has a hard-wired fire-detection system, which can identify smoke and carbon dioxide. Also, the entire house has a top Guardian security system, which accommodates motion-detectors, and which can notify the police immediately upon an intrusion. There is almost always nearby street parking available in front of the house. Also, there are two spaces for cars in the garage driveway in back on a quiet private street. The interior has been completely re-painted, the hardwood floors have been re- finished, and all bedrooms have new carpeting. The townhouse is ready for an immediate move-in. The townhouse is governed by a neighborhood Condominium Association, which takes care of lawns, trash and re-cycling. Quiet end-unit. WELCOME HOME!
