Description:

Tucked on a leafy stretch of Kenyon Street, this Mount Pleasant row house strikes the balance between timeless architectural charm and thoughtfully upgraded systems and spaces throughout. Step inside to original inlaid hardwood floors that set the tone for a gorgeous home built for comfortable everyday living and easy entertaining. The living room's custom built-in bookshelf adds a warm, tailored touch, while a formal dining room provides a dedicated space for hosting dinner parties and holiday gatherings. A spacious eat-in kitchen with stainless steel appliances, new quartz counter tops and a zellige backsplash, has large bay windows that overlook the garden filling the space with light. Upstairs, you will find three bedrooms plus a versatile sunroom that can be used as a den or study. There are two full baths, one with a skylight and the other with a classic standard clawfoot tub preserving the timeless character of days gone by. For multigenerational living or extra flexible space, the basement offers a large in-law suite with an additional bedroom, living area and kitchen space, which includes a brand new refrigerator. A rear door leads to a small patio and into the leafy back yard which has the added convenience of garage parking, a rare luxury in the city. Major systems have been well cared for, with new energy-efficient windows installed in 2016, a central air conditioning upgrade in 2017, a new furnace in 2023 and new exterior painting in the rear of the house in 2025. Life here means neighborhood favorites are just steps from your door including Elle Bakery, Each Peach Market, Past Tense Yoga and the Saturday Mt. Pleasant Farmer’s Market. With the Columbia Heights Metro station just a short walk away, you're connected to the rest of the city in minutes.
