Classic and gracious, this four-bedroom + three-and-a-half bath center hall all-brick colonial stands on a lovely tree-lined street in the historic Cleveland Park neighborhood. The home is approximately three blocks from Connecticut Avenue’s vibrant shopping and dining options, METRO, the Cleveland Park Library, and numerous public and private schools, including the NCRC preschool and the Cleveland Park Club across the street. Your visitors will be warmly welcomed by a large flagstone walkway and a porticoed front porch under a majestic oak with perennial gardens. A wall of windows and French doors at the rear of both the main and lower level provide streaming light and access to a delightful custom-designed deck and flagstone patio that overlook a deep woodland garden featuring native trees, shrubs, and perennials, a private oasis with striking verdant views. An ingenious storage area is accessed from the patio and smartly stows away lawn and sports equipment, bikes, and toys.

Truly an entertainer’s dream, the home’s main level offers a circular floor plan that includes an entrance foyer, a large living room with a gas fireplace, a spacious dining room, a convenient powder room, and kitchen with a pantry and side-door walkout.

Upper level one of the residence unveils a dramatically oversized primary suite with enormous triple windows overlooking the natural beauty of the garden and forest beyond; a walk-in closet; dressing area; and dual entry marble bath with double salon sinks, a steam shower with bench and 1-1/2 width whirlpool tub. A second spacious bedroom with tall triple windows and built-in bookshelves finishes off this level and can be purposed as a nursery, bedroom, or office. Upper level two presents two more sizable bedrooms with built-ins and another full bath. The main and upper levels boast oak hardwood floors, recessed lighting and great closets.

Highlights of the flexible lower level are a large den/family room with another gas fireplace and another wall of French doors and windows with access to the patio and gardens in the rear. Complete with a full bathroom, this level abounds with plenty of storage, a utility room, and an additional area suitable for a study, playroom, or au pair suite.

The home shares a driveway and double detached garage with the next-door residence with space for a full-sized vehicle plus off-street parking.

Updated and well maintained by its current longtime owner, this home makes every day a pure pleasure while it is also ready for your buyer’s personal touches or expansion plans!
