OPEN HOUSE CANCELLED. Renovated with artistic vision and designed for modern living, this exceptional home offers timeless curb appeal and every amenity for comfort, entertaining, and recreation. From the herringbone-patterned driveway to the inviting front portico, the classic brick and siding exterior sets the stage for a thoughtfully designed interior.

The home opens to a custom entry/mudroom—every organized household’s dream—featuring floor-to-ceiling stacked shelving, charming window seats, built-in drawers, and hooks. Finished with slate flooring and a convenient powder room, this stylish and functional space also provides access to the backyard, setting the tone for the home’s seamless blend of luxury and practicality.

A landing leads to the living room, highlighted by one of the home’s three fireplaces. The stunning kitchen is a chef’s dream, featuring rich, polished cabinetry with crown molding, rounded open shelving, and glass-front doors—perfect for decorative displays. Ample storage and expansive counter space make this kitchen as functional as it is beautiful. A pass-through opens to the dining area and an adjacent light-filled home office or craft room—an ideal flex space adaptable to various needs.

Glass pocket doors connect the kitchen to a warm and inviting family room with floor-to-ceiling windows, custom built-ins, and a gas fireplace. Just beyond, an expansive screened-in porch boasts a brick wood-burning fireplace, slate flooring, and a beadboard ceiling, creating a serene, all-season retreat. The porch flows effortlessly into a flagstone patio, a fully fenced backyard, a spacious detached shed, and even a basketball court for friendly competition.

Upstairs, three spacious bedrooms and two full baths await. The primary suite includes two closets and a beautifully renovated ensuite bath with a marble-topped vanity, a separate shower, and a dramatic vaulted ceiling. The additional bedrooms are equally inviting, including one with a stylish board-and-batten accent wall. The hall bath features a relaxing soaking tub.

The lower level continues the theme of easy living with durable luxury vinyl flooring, a laundry room, a full bath, and a large insulated storage room with power and lighting. Every detail has been thoughtfully designed for modern convenience, from Elfa closet systems to a 200-amp heavy-up electrical system and an outdoor car charging port.

Located in the heart of Parkwood, with its beautiful tree-lined streets and sidewalks, this home backs to the park and the biking and hiking trails into Rock Creek Park. It is moments from the vibrant Kensington town center, has easy access to commuting routes, and is located near excellent schools. For the buyer seeking their perfect forever home, this checks every box!
