If these walls could talk, they would tell the stories of a fifth generation Washington family who occupied this special home for more than sixty years. From teenagers sneaking buddies into the basement to hosting memorable holiday dinners in the dining room, the home is filled with memories, and it is now time for a new owner to make it their own.

Situated on a tree-lined street in North Cleveland Park, this house offers a traditional floorplan on the main level. The gracious entry includes a place to drop keys and mail, hang coats, and pause after a long day. The grand living room features multiple windows, a fireplace, and plenty of wall space for furniture and displaying art. The lovely dining room is situated just off the kitchen and flows nicely between both the living room and family room. The kitchen has an opening to the family room, includes plenty of cabinet and counter space, and is serviceable until the next owner may be ready to add their own personal touch. In the rear of the main level is the family room, a perfect place to enjoy movie nights, play with little ones, or add a desk to work from home. This room flows nicely to the yard and offers tons of natural light. To complete this level there is a powder room tucked off of the main hallway and a side door for loading groceries.

On the second level just off of a generous landing are three bedrooms and two full baths. The primary bedroom can easily accommodate a king bed, is en-suite, and offers views of the rear garden. The two other bedrooms are spacious, bright and cheery, and are serviced by the hall bath which has a tub/shower combination.

The top level is accessed via fixed stairs and is quite large. This room could be used as a fourth bedroom, home office, or hangout space for teenagers.

The lower level is an open and flexible space with high ceilings and a second fireplace. The utility room is for easy to access storage and includes a toilet room and door to the rear yard.

Enjoy dining al fresco on the patio, hosting friends for a bbq, or gardening in the yard. The oversized garage is a bonus for storage or all your tinkering dreams. There is also a parking pad adjacent the garage.

Situated between both Connecticut and Wisconsin Avenues, the dining/shopping/and retail options around this home are endless. Grab fresh fruits and veggies at the local farmer’s market, a quick car wash on Connecticut Avenue, or a baguette to go with dinner at neighborhood favorite Bread Furst.
