Property Description
***First Public Open House - Saturday May 10th 1-4pm*** A quintessential DC Tudor tucked among the mature trees of the beloved Forest Hills neighborhood in Northwest DC! This 1920s gem combines timeless charm with modern essentials, including a slate tile craftsman-style kitchen and an updated owner's suite featuring a fireplace, glorious double walk-in closets, and a marble-tiled bath with double sinks and a glass shower. Also upstairs are two additional sunny bedrooms, which share a beautifully crafted artisan bath. A rare third floor offers three versatile rooms—ideal for office, guest, or play—all sharing another bath with a glass craftsman-style shower. The main floor welcomes you with a foyer that flows into a formal dining room, kitchen, and formal living room, plus a “speakeasy”-style side library adorned with whimsical wallpaper that continues into the powder room. The spacious lower level offers abundant storage, a large walk-in laundry room, a gym with a Moroccan-inspired full bath, and distinctive character details like a stone wall, built-in shelves, and an under-staircase dog cove.
Atop the azalea-lined sidewalks and stone wall driveway —— the flat back yard with play area, large patio and detached 2 car-garage (perfect for future guest house!) Generator and grill convey. All just minutes to restaurants and shops on Connecticut Ave, blocks to Rock Creek Park, and only 1/2 mile to Van Ness Metro! Owner favorites include - walkable to Politics & Prose, Bread Furst, Sfoglina, Italian Bar, and Call Your Mother.
