Description

This property is no longer available to rent or to buy. This description is from October 04, 2023
Immaculately maintained townhouse with attached garage in Old Town! Hardwood floors greet you and flow throughout the entire 4-level home. A sun drenched family room is perfect for entertaining with a wet bar, wine fridge and wood burning fireplace. Two sets of french doors lead to a private brick patio to host barbecues in mild weather. A half bath is convenient for guests. The main level offers a formal dining room with custom moldings - spacious for large gatherings. The well appointed kitchen boasts stainless steel appliances, an oversized deep sink, granite counters and stylish mosaic backsplash. See thru glass cabinets create storage over the large breakfast bar. The adjoining living room is flooded with natural light from double french doors opening to Juliet balconies. Colonial influences include an exposed brick wall, a wood burning fireplace and custom shelving for displaying mementoes and artwork. Upstairs are two generous bedrooms: the primary suite with an updated ensuite bath and 2nd BR with a modern hall bath. The 4th level is a private 3rd BR or home office as needed, with a full bath and storage closets. Besides the garage, Washington Square includes a secure underground parking space.

    "Living in Old Town is one of the best decisions I’ve ever made! No matter the season, there’s a parade, fireworks and throughout the year the Farmer’s Market. I can’t imagine living anywhere else in the DC Metro, except in DC itself. Be warned: there are lots of tourists in the area, so patience is a virtue, especially during the summer and holidays. "
