Description

Thoughtfully renovated in 2016/2017 and extensively refreshed in 2026, this modern home offers three bedrooms, three-and-a-half bathrooms, multiple living spaces, and fantastic outdoor space. The open-concept main level features beautifully restored and restained red oak hardwood floors, spacious living and dining areas, an updated powder room, and a designer kitchen with a new refrigerator and wine fridge, newer dishwasher, induction stove, abundant counter space, a large breakfast bar, new lighting above the island, and a wall of windows that fills the space with natural light. Upstairs, you’ll find two generously sized bedrooms, each with its own en suite bathroom, including newly updated bathroom vanities. The primary bedroom features new lighting, while a conveniently located laundry closet includes a newer washer and dryer. The fully finished lower level offers exceptional flexibility with new LVP, a spacious rec room, a third bedroom featuring great natural light and two closets, and a third full bathroom. This space is ideal as a guest suite, a home office, or gym. Freshly painted throughout, the home also features new carpeting on the stairs to the basement, custom window treatments, a Nest thermostat, solar panels, and newer gutters with gutter guards. The outdoor spaces have also been thoughtfully refreshed. The charming front yard features new seasonal plantings including daffodils, grape hyacinths, tulips, hostas, and hydrangea. Out back, added topsoil and privacy panels enhance the private backyard and garden, creating an inviting setting for relaxing, entertaining, or dining al fresco. Ideally situated in Trinidad/Carver Langston, the home offers convenient access to the shops, restaurants, and nightlife of the H Street Corridor, the DC Streetcar, the National Arboretum, Rosedale Recreation Center and Pool, and the exciting ongoing development around RFK and along the Benning Road corridor.
