Description

It's an extraordinary day in Northwest DC when a property like 3536 Appleton Street becomes available. This handsome and beautifully maintained detached Colonial boasts an incredible location and comes with all the bells and whistles, including a backyard oasis the likes of which you've likely not seen in an urban setting. Inside, great care has gone into elevating the whole space: restoring the gorgeous, blonde hardwoods; adding recessed lighting and fresh paint throughout; expanding with an incredible addition and basement dig-out; modernizing the large and impressive chef's kitchen; and enhancing and expanding the baths on the upper level. Notable among its most appealing features are floor-to-ceiling windows and vaulted ceilings in the living area adjacent to the stunning kitchen, with a view of the fenced-in, backyard haven. The outdoor space is landscaped with artistry and restraint, and features a serene, year-round wading pool and hot tub, as well as a sunken trampoline—a dream for anyone who loves to host. Sunlit and spacious, the kitchen features brand new marble countertops, a Subzero refrigerator, two Thermador wall ovens, and a separate Thermador range. Upstairs you'll find three of five bedrooms and two full baths, one of which is brand new and both of which feature stunning modern fixtures and tile work. Another bedroom—also suitable as an office space—graces the main floor, along with a formal dining room, two living rooms, and a beautiful half bath with refined finishes. The fully renovated, high-ceilinged basement has a fantastic living space as well as the remaining full bath and bedroom, tastefully appointed with a full wall of built-ins. The property has a lovely screened-in porch; an attached garage with electric car charger; in-ground sprinkler- and outdoor speaker systems; as well as remote pool and landscape light controls. Its proximity to the Connecticut Avenue corridor and red-line metro brings ease to the commute and access to a number of beloved DC venues, such as Politics and Prose and nationally renowned bakery Breadfurst. Light-filled, expansive, and upgraded with sophistication throughout, this home is singular among current offerings in DC. Coupled with its ideal location, it simply cannot be beat. This property is a rare find. OPEN HOUSE CANCELED - CONTRACT EXCEPTED

    "The Muhlenburg park next door is a nice green space, but too many irresponsible dog owners don’t pick up the dog waste, so if you’re walking through the park, guaranteed you’re tracking that home. Not well lit at night, questionable activity."

    "We like this neighborhood for our kids because it’s east to navigate. DC is such a manageable city and I like that our kids can learn how to use the metro and use that skill in other cities. It’s really walkable and my kids don’t get behind the wheel and contribute to ozone. We save on insurance too. "
