Outdoor enthusiasts will love being just steps from Glover-Archbold Park, with miles of scenic trails, wooded paths, streams, and community gardens. Seasonal beauty surrounds the home, from vibrant autumn colors to the stunning spring blossoms of the property's weeping cherry tree. Distinctive neighborhood touches include the sounds of the National Cathedral bells and the evening trumpet call from the nearby U.S. Naval Observatory.
