THANK YOU! ** Welcome to the perfect combination of charm and luxury living, nestled in the heart of the highly sought-after Wakefield neighborhood of NW Washington, DC. This mid-century masterpiece boasts 4 Bedrooms, 3 FULL Baths, and a generous 2,774 square feet of meticulously finished space, offering an exquisite blend of sophistication and comfort. As you step inside, the entry level leads into a spacious 28’ x 13’ living and entertaining area where you’ll be enveloped in natural light, courtesy of strategically placed windows that showcase the beauty of the tree-lined lot and lush greenery surrounding this enchanting property. The upper level beckons with a generous Primary Bedroom featuring an En-Suite Bath, while two additional spacious Bedrooms provide ample space for family or guests. The Primary Bath, renovated in 2015 with the addition of a skylight, exudes elegance and serenity. In 2022, the second upper-level Bathroom received a stunning makeover, complete with two skylights that flood the space with invigorating natural sunlight. The den on the second floor is a light-filled tranquil haven, cantilevered over the dining room and offering picturesque views through a two-story wall of windows. It is perfect for a Home Office or a serene reading area. The primary living level is a haven for culinary enthusiasts and family-friendly living, featuring a gourmet Kitchen renovated in 2022. The Kitchen also boasts a large island with breakfast bar. Adjacent, a welcoming Family Room graced by a wood-burning fireplace beckons, providing warmth and ambiance. Sliding glass doors from the Dining Room lead to an inviting stone patio, extending your living space into the beautifully landscaped outdoors. Bask in the charm, luxury, and natural ambiance of the two-story formal dining area. This space promises unforgettable dining experiences and effortless entertaining while a breathtaking wall of windows bathes the area in wonderful light, blurring the lines between indoor elegance and the outdoors, offering an effortless transition to a generous patio area. This level of the home also offers features a well-sized fourth Bedroom and third Full Bath. This thoughtful design accommodates both family and guests with ease.

Situated on a generous 7,400-square-foot lot, the beautifully landscaped grounds feature an array of plants and perennials, including vibrant bulbs, azaleas, rhododendrons, and flowering trees, creating a serene and colorful retreat. This home is adorned with remarkable features, including a rarely found 2-car ATTACHED garage for your convenience. Additionally, a BRAND NEW energy-efficient HVAC system ensures year-round comfort. The large sub-basement, accessible from both outside and the Laundry Room, adds practicality to the mix. This highly sought-after neighborhood also offers easy access to transportation, shops, and restaurants, making it the perfect place to call home. The home is a short walk to two metro stops, Van Ness and Tenleytown on the Red line. Beach Drive, now closed to traffic, is great for long walks and rides in Rock Creek Park and is a five-minute drive with easy parking. And the ever-popular Murch Elementary School is just a stone's throw away. Whole Foods, and an array of shops and restaurants, are conveniently situated just four-six blocks away, making daily errands and dining out a delightful ease. Savor distinct flavors of restaurants such as Buck's Fishing and Camping, Sfoglina, Muchas Gracias, and Comet Ping Pong.

    "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."
  • Tenleytown Lover
    "Tenleytown Festivals for the arts. Art All Night and WinterFest. We never miss them. A great way to become a part of this neighborhood. A welcome place for all! "
  • Tenleytown Lover
    "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. "
  • Tenleytown Lover
    "Easy Easy Easy! Metro is super close and it’s on the red line. Also, close to Metro on CT Ave. When we have out of town visitors, they can get to every DC tourist stop with ease. "
  • Trulia User
    "I love this area. It’s super safe and beautiful. People are nice and everyone wears masks. DC is a great international community. "
  • Chiara T.
    "12 minute walk to metro (or 5 minutes on the bus, if I catch it on time) and then a 15 minute metro ride to Farragut north. 35 minutes door to door, very easy"
  • Chiara T.
    "My understanding is that the schools in this area are quite good. There certainly are a lot of families with young children here. Lots of parks and green space to take your kids and dogs!!"
