Description
Fully updated 3BR+Den/3BA townhome located in highly sought after quiet street in Burleith. Flagstone stairs will lead you to the welcoming front porch where you can overlook the landscaped front garden and unique fruit tree-lined street, which includes peach, plum, fig, apple, citrus trees. At the end of the block are paths leading to Glover Archbold Park, and close to community parks Volta and Guy Mason. Inside, you'll find original woodwork details, transoms, newly refinished hardwood floors, living room with decorative FP, formal dining room, light-filled bonus room with access to rear fenced-in patio and open kitchen with SS appliances and granite counters. The second level offers a primary suite with attached full bath, two additional bedrooms connected by a den/office space flooded with natural light and a full spa-like bath in the hallway with marble finishes and polished chrome fixtures. The finished lower level is large enough for a secondary family room or rec. room and has a decorative FP, rough-in for wet bar area, built-in shelving, full bath and laundry area with W/D. The flagstone rear patio -- lined with Camellia and Rose of Sharon trees and rose bush -- offers plenty of space for entertaining. Rear gate leads to separate one-car garage and another parking spot. Stairs lead to charming stone multi-level terrace, one of the few remaining “Hanging Gardens of Burlieth.” The location is prime - close to Georgetown waterfront, Georgetown University/Yates Field House, Ellington Field track, Glover Archbold Park, and tons of boutique shops and restaurants along Wisconsin Ave and M Street, NW.
