Welcome to this one-of-a-kind 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom home in the heart of Brookland, where thoughtful renovation meets timeless DC character across three expansive, light-filled levels. Blending classic charm with modern comfort, this beautifully updated residence offers generous spaces for both relaxing and entertaining. A highlight is the fully finished lower level with front and back entrances and an interior staircase—ideal as a potential income generator, guest suite, or private home office and living space. Whether you're investing or seeking flexible living, this home offers unmatched versatility in one of DC’s most desirable neighborhoods. Upstairs, the cathedral ceiling in the primary suite creates a striking, light-drenched sanctuary, complete with skylights, 17-foot ceilings, custom double closets, and a beautifully updated en suite bath. Two additional spacious bedrooms, another full bathroom, and a second washer/dryer set make everyday living easy and organized. An open-concept main floor that feels as inviting as it is functional. The layout flows effortlessly, anchored by a massive chef’s kitchen with a stunning waterfall granite island, perfect for casual meals or entertaining. The spacious formal dining area and oversized living room make gatherings a joy. Another standout feature is the exposed brick stairwell, adding that classic DC feel and tying the space together with warmth and style. With all major systems upgraded (plumbing, electrical) and every detail carefully considered, this is more than a home—it’s a lifestyle. Downstairs, the fully dug-out English basement offers an incredible bonus: a private suite with its own front and rear entrances, a full bath, kitchenette, separate laundry, and more than enough storage. It’s ideal for guests, cozy movie nights, or an income-producing rental set up. Step out back to unwind in the screened-in porch, thoughtfully designed to make it a year-round haven for quiet, peaceful dinners or lively evenings with friends. Beyond that, the backyard is perfect for relaxing or play, and includes a parking pad with a secure roll-up electric garage door. Outside, the charm continues with a mix of mature shrubs and greenery. A few tall evergreens provide privacy and shade, in addition to a neatly pruned hedge that softens the entrance. There is a vibrant pink crepe myrtle that gracefully arches over the front porch in full bloom. The variety of plant textures and subtle layering give the space a welcoming and natural feel without being overly manicured. But what truly sets this home apart is the incredible community you’ll be joining. The neighbors on this block are a tight-knit, welcoming group who know how to make the most of DC’s seasons—Halloween and 4th of July are not to be missed! From Primrose date nights and Saturday mornings at the Brookland Farmers Market, to a great park just two blocks away and quick access to the Metro Branch Trail, life here is as vibrant as it is convenient. Don’t miss your chance to experience it for yourself—schedule a showing today!
