About This Home

Perfectly located in the Old & Historic District of central Old Town, this 4-bedroom residence with attached garage offers a rare combination of historic setting, thoughtful design, and everyday convenience near Metro, restaurants, and shopping. Designed by Morris-Day Associates and constructed in 1994, this one-of-a-kind home is being offered for sale for the first time. The low-maintenance brick exterior features masonry on all sides, cast keystones, true divided-light windows, and Bevolo gas light fixtures at the front entrance. The attached side-load garage is finished with polished concrete floors, a Tesla charging station, custom built-in cabinetry, and pull-down access to a large storage area above. Front, side, and rear garden areas are served by a zoned irrigation system. A covered side porch with Ipe decking overlooks a private garden with stone wall seating, an arbor, and water feature. Inside, the traditional floor plan, not an open concept but is enhanced by four exposures, filling the home with natural light throughout the day. The main level features 9-foot ceilings, a rear staircase, hardwood flooring, and solid architectural detailing. A custom-designed and fabricated Indiana limestone fireplace serves as the focal point of the living room, framed by arched bookcases, a box beam ceiling, and columns. French doors open to a Tanglewood conservatory with English ceiling blinds, heated slate floors, ceiling fan, and dedicated HVAC system. In the kitchen, limestone floors are complemented by natural cherry cabinetry, granite countertops, Sub-Zero refrigeration, and a Wolf gas range. The upper-level primary suite features a vaulted ceiling with fan, private balcony, walk-in closet with washer/dryer hookup, and en suite bath with steam shower. Two additional bedrooms share a full bath, with a convenient laundry chute to the lower level. The lower level offers a complete in-law suite with separate entrance, full kitchen, bedroom, full bath, and living room with French doors opening to the rear garden, with access to the garage and alley. This home has no common wall with neighboring home and no HOA. Enjoy the quiet no bus line or cut through on a tree lined street just 1 block to historic Robert E Lee's boyhood home and only a few blocks to the Potomac river and parks.
