Description

Unique single-family home in the heart of Brookland awaits your renovation. From the exterior alone, you know this home is special. With its wooden, wraparound porch, it's perfect for relaxing in the evenings. When you enter, you will experience a spacious foyer which leads to the parlor. The parlor has a lovely decorative fireplace. Also on the first floor is the large separate living room and formal dining room. The kitchen has stairs leading to the upstairs. The second floor features five bedrooms. one full bathroom and a deck off the back bedroom. The unfinished attic needs only a little imagination to create extra finished square footage. Whether you make it an owner's suite, office, or family room, it will be a wonderful space. The lower level is unfinished with lots of space and a half bathroom. You will also enjoy the large backyard and off street parking. Only three blocks to the Red line Metro and a short distance to the shops and restaurants in Monroe Street Market.
This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.

    "sometimes people don't clean up.behind their dogs. I've been victim to walking in dog poo and having to clean it off after I've gotten to work! Not sightly or a great way to smell walking into your office. "

    "I’ve lived in Brookland for 21 years. Although it has a small town feel and is somewhat residential, Brookland has the red line metro to get you downtown or to NW in minutes. Also, the architecture is VERY eclectic— there are examples of every style of architecture from Victorian and Queen Anne in the 1800s to every other popular style during the 20th century and beyond. We even have the highest concentration of black architect designed houses in the US right here in Brookland. My belief is that this variation in architecture has translated into an equally varied population in the neighborhood— something for everyone! What unites us is that we all care deeply about our homes and the green space that surrounds us. Ward 5 is the greenest Ward in the city."
