Offering four bedrooms, two renovated bathrooms, three outdoor living spaces, a detached two-car garage, and a rare walk-out lower level, this timeless brick Colonial blends classic Washington character with meaningful modern improvements. Thoughtfully cared for and carefully enhanced over the years, it offers both enduring charm and the peace of mind that comes from substantial infrastructure upgrades.Beautifully refinished hardwood floors, high ceilings, generous windows, and abundant natural light create a warm and welcoming atmosphere throughout. The gracious living room is anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, while the dining room, accented by a coffered ceiling, provides an inviting setting for everyday living and entertaining. The spacious kitchen offers generous cabinetry, ample workspace, room for a breakfast nook, and is complemented by a beautifully renovated main-level bathroom with porcelain tile and a walk-in shower.Upstairs, the spacious primary bedroom enjoys peaceful views over the front yard, while two additional bedrooms overlook the rear garden. Another room provides the flexibility for a home office, nursery, or guest room.

Others impress with substance.
