Welcome to this expanded and renovated colonial on a quiet street in American University Park.

The sleek kitchen flows into the dining area and a spacious great room with a built-in office space. There is also a separate living room with a fireplace, plus a mudroom and powder room with exterior access. Smart storage is seamlessly integrated throughout, including under the built-in dining bench and above the desk. Step outside to a deck off the family room, overlooking the beautiful yard. Upstairs, there are four bedrooms and two full baths, including a large primary suite with an en-suite bath, walk-in closet, and private deck.

The flat, fully fenced yard is beautifully landscaped with mature trees and vibrant florals. Additional storage under the deck accommodates bikes and garden tools, and the current owners added 2-car parking in the rear. All of this, just steps from Millie’s, Starbucks, Compass Coffee, Playa Bowls, Wagshal’s, Turtle Park, and more. Thoughtful updates, an incredible yard, and a prime AU Park location make this home a standout.
