Classic Petworth town home on a block that is unique to the city. Enjoy the serenity of the front porch, directly across the street from the grounds of the Old Soldier's Home. Inside, a gracious foyer welcomes you and one is immediately struck by the original details and hardwood floors that embellish the home throughout. Thoughtfully redesigned by its current owner, the home feels airy and light and boasts an impressive re-design of the main level. The dining room has been opened to the kitchen, allowing for a central chef's prep island, providing additional cabinet space and a large work area. Stainless appliances and a tiled backsplash grace the open kitchen, leading to a butler's pantry with more storage and a conveniently-situated washer/dryer. Dine outdoors on the beautiful back deck overlooking a backyard with stone patio. Polished throughout, the home feels light and airy. The owners' suite includes modern built-in storage and a gorgeous bath with a tiled, glass shower and plantation shutters. Two additional bedrooms and a full bath complete the second level. A third-floor attic provides plenty of storage. A lower-level family room and bonus area awaits your imagination, with walk-out access to the backyard and the secure parking pad. Enjoy the benefits of one of DC's most popular neighborhoods and easy access to points across the city. Just one half mile to the metro.
