Historic beauty meets modern updates on a quiet one-way street in lovely Mount Pleasant! Pocket doors, picture moldings, coffered ceilings -- this place has it all. The updated kitchen will wow you: Soaring tiled tin ceiling with custom, hardwood cabinets (with a specific nook for your step ladder -- to reach all the storage up top). A convenient peninsula to eat breakfast or drink a glass of wine and add more storage! The kitchen also boasts granite countertops, a slate-floored porch directly off of it, a lovely view onto the slate patio and green space in the backyard. Outdoor lovers: wave to neighbors from your front veranda, eat dinner on the rear patio or drink your morning coffee on the rear porch off the bedroom. When you walk in the gorgeous wooden front door with transom and sidelight details, an ample foyer hall greets you and looks to the main staircase -- with beautiful millwork details intact -- leading up to a full bathroom and three sunny bedrooms. The ventless washer/dryer combo unit is located on the bedroom level for your utmost convenience. Take a peek at the floored storage available in the attic. In the lower level there is a studio/rec room with a full bathroom and flexible sink area. Doors lead to both the front with a secure atrium (huge storage area with bike hooks) and rear (with a great workshop or additional storage area). Solar panels are owned, north wall has been insulated, all windows and doors have been replaced -- so enjoy the energy savings. Mt. Pleasant has great pride of place so get ready to enjoy festivals and neighborhood get togethers. The main square of Mount Pleasant is right down at the other end of your street and contains tons of amazing culinary and cultural experiences. Walk to the left out of your front door to the trailhead and access all Rock Creek Park has to offer! Only a couple blocks away is Columbia Heights metro station and plentiful shopping, grocery stores and dining. A few blocks in the opposite direction visit the National Zoo.
