The welcoming foyer opens to a spacious front room that can easily serve as a living room, family room, or flexible gathering space. Continue into the updated kitchen featuring new quartz countertops, updated appliances, and classic cabinetry that perfectly blends timeless charm with today's conveniences. One of the home's standout features is the exceptionally large main-level bedroom, privately positioned on the opposite side of the home from the other two main-level bedrooms. This versatile space could function as an owner's suite, 5th bedroom, home office, library, or additional family room depending on your needs. Both full bathrooms have been completely remodeled with beautiful ceramic tile, stylish fixtures, and modern finishes.

A spacious full bathroom and additional storage complete the upper level, giving everyone room to spread out. But the views are what truly set this home apart. 3 of the bedrooms offer beautiful views of Mount Vernon Park, and the backyard provides direct access to the parkland. In the winter, when the leaves fall, the views become even more spectacular, revealing scenic vistas toward Washington, D.C. and National Harbor across the river. Outside, enjoy the convenience of a 3-car driveway, a private backyard, and direct access to the surrounding parkland. And with NO HOA fees, you have even more freedom to enjoy your property your way.
