Description
Imagine living two blocks from the shops and restaurants on King Street and five blocks from Founders’ Park, the Potomac River, and the 18-mile Mount Vernon Trail. Watch the Scottish Christmas Walk Parade from your front door. This c.1790s Flounder House (a 2-3 story home with a half gable roof and it's tall side on the property line) offers the epitome of the Old Town lifestyle: historic charm, walkability, and modern amenities. The gracious living room boasts an exposed brick wall, built-in bookshelves, hardwood floors and space to relax with guests or binge your latest shows. Share a feast with friends in the dining room. Appreciate the room’s exposed beams, built-in niche to show off books, china, or treasures, and closet hidden under the stairs. The kitchen is appointed with a large skylight, maple cabinetry, under cabinet lighting, a high-end Liebherr refrigerator, 5-burner GE Profile Gas Range, stainless steel appliances, and another niche for spices, oils, or collectibles. A full bathroom with shower and laundry completes the lower level. Upstairs are two bedrooms accented with a sloping ceiling, consistent with the historic architecture of a Flounder house roofline. The primary bedroom offers an exposed brick wall, exposed beams in the ceiling, and a double closet. The secondary bedroom offers exposed beams and extensive built-in bookshelves and cabinetry, making it perfect for a home office. Outside is a deep garden with a flagstone terrace, raised garden beds, and storage shed. This private outdoor space is perfect for hosting barbecues, playing with your dog, or growing flowers and tomatoes. Less than 1 mile to King St Metro, 4 miles to Reagan National Airport and Amazon HQ2, and 7 miles to Washington, DC.
