Description:

Thoughtfully updated and beautifully maintained, this 4BR/3.5BA Brightwood Colonial blends timeless character with modern convenience. Warm hardwood floors, abundant natural light, and a welcoming fireplace create an inviting main level, while the renovated kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a newly installed backsplash, freshly painted cabinetry, and an adjacent half bath and stacked washer and dryer. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite is highlighted by a walk-in closet and a fully renovated en-suite full bath, offering a spa-like retreat. Two additional bedrooms with generous natural light and closet space, along with another full bath, complete the upper level. The fully equipped lower-level in-law/au pair suite—with its own private entrance, kitchen, bedroom, full bath, and separate washer and dryer—provides exceptional flexibility for guests, extended family, or potential rental income. Outside, enjoy a fully fenced backyard with a versatile outdoor space that functions as both a patio and an off-street parking pad, complete with secured access through a custom industrial-grade garage door. Improvements include a sturdy and high perimeter fence, a new HVAC condenser (2023), fresh interior paint, and numerous thoughtful updates that reflect pride of ownership throughout. Ideally located within walking distance and just moments from Takoma Metro, Rock Creek Park, Whole Foods, The Parks at Walter Reed, neighborhood shops, restaurants, Safeway, and other everyday conveniences, this home offers the perfect combination of classic charm, modern updates, and flexible living space in one of Northwest DC's most desirable neighborhoods.
