Listing Description

New Price and Open House Sunday 2-5pm! Open living spaces, incredible natural light, modern updates, and original charm come together in this beautiful 4-bedroom, 3-bath end-unit rowhome. Its wonderful layout spans 3 finished above-grade levels, with one of the best kitchens in the entire neighborhood, on a coveted corner lot in the heart of sought-after Glover Park.

Just 3 blocks to Whole Foods, neighborhood restaurants, and shops, and 2 blocks to park trails and open green spaces! The inviting living room features a wall of custom built-in bookshelves, south-facing windows with plantation shutters, hardwood floors, and new recessed lighting.

At the heart of the home is an open and spacious chef's kitchen equipped with a gas Viking range, stainless steel appliances, expansive granite countertops, generous cabinet space, a true pantry, and a breakfast bar. The kitchen flows seamlessly into an open dining and family room featuring abundant natural light from additional south-facing window

s, a gas fireplace, a convenient full bathroom, and direct access to the large, private, and impeccably updated patio space. Upstairs, the primary bedroom offers three customized closets, including one with plumbing rough-ins for a potential future en suite bathroom.

Two additional bedrooms with beautiful treetop views plus an updated bathroom with tub/shower combo and skylight complete the upper level. A rare and exceptionally versatile main-level den, office, or fourth bedroom features its own en suite bathroom and a large picture window framing spectacular sunrises over the neighborhood rooftops.

The home's outdoor spaces are equally appealing. The renovated and expanded stone patio with privacy fence provides an ideal setting for dining and entertaining, and its side gate right off of incredibly easy street parking provides a convenient everyday entrance to the home.

A manicured front garden and charming front porch add a place to relax or take in a sunset. Thoughtful storage throughout the home includes built-ins, multiple storage closets, cabinets, and purposeful spaces on every level, and the shed in back is large enough for bikes as well as all of your outdoor needs.

Perfectly positioned within Glover Park, the home provides quick access to neighborhood restaurants, cafes, and local favorites along Wisconsin Avenue, the wooded trails of Glover-Archbold Park, and the community's beloved Stoddert Elementary School. Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, Guy Mason Recreation Center, and Starbucks are all minutes away, while all of Georgetown is just down the hill, offering an exceptional blend of neighborhood charm, outdoor recreation, and city convenience. Welcome home!
