Property Description
A Garden Hideaway at the Edge of Rock Creek Park. This 1930s home sits on one of the most private streets in this Northwest DC neighborhood. It is the kind of block even longtime locals don't know exists. Just steps from the trails of Rock Creek, it offers green, quiet surroundings without sacrificing city access.
Inside, the layout is effortless and well-considered, with upgrades in all the right places: a vibrant contemporary kitchen, renovated bathrooms, and a remarkable primary suite with its own private loft, perfect for a home office or personal retreat. The finished lower level includes two additional bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a walk-out to the backyard... A jewel, the yard is a deep, thoughtfully planted garden anchored by a covered patio. It feels more like a retreat than a yard. A detached garage off the alley, currently styled as a garden shed, offers flexible potential for storage, a studio, or parking. Major systems have been fully modernized, including dual-zone HVAC, a tankless water heater, and a 200-amp electrical system. In a neighborhood on the rise, this is a home with both charm and privacy, the kind that feels like a rare and refreshing discovery.
Open Sunday, June 15th, from 1–4 PM.
