Description

This gracious stone rowhome is full of architectural interest, classic charming details like original millwork and freshly refinished oak floors with decorative inlay, and key updates in the kitchen and baths. And with a separate entrance to the basement, which has its own full bathroom and direct access to the attached garage, there are plenty of options for this finished space beyond just having an additional living area: rental income, multigenerational living, or a dreamy live-work setup. Set...This gracious stone rowhome is full of architectural interest, classic charming details like original millwork and freshly refinished oak floors with decorative inlay, and key updates in the kitchen and baths. And with a separate entrance to the basement, which has its own full bathroom and direct access to the attached garage, there are plenty of options for this finished space beyond just having an additional living area: rental income, multigenerational living, or a dreamy live-work setup. Set behind a deep front garden is the vestibule entrance with an original multi-paned inner door. The gorgeous hardwood floors that run throughout start in the living room, where there’s a plaster arch, decorative fireplace, triple front windows, recessed lighting and staircase with original curved banister. Through an oversized archway is the dining room with an arched niche flanked by original mirrored closets, one of which runs the full length of the staircase. It opens into the eat-in kitchen, which has been brought up to contemporary standards with cherry cabinets, granite countertops with white cast iron undermount sink with pulldown faucet, engineered wood flooring, and stainless steel appliances including a GE Profile double wall oven with convection, GE dishwasher and Frigidaire slide-in range with architectural range hood. Upstairs, the primary bedroom has a stunning vaulted ceiling with recessed lighting, a triple front window, a sweet reading nook with original multi-paned window and an en suite bathroom with skylight and large walk-in dual-head shower with full-wall slate tile surround. At the opposite end of the hallway is another large bedroom, also featuring an arched nook and an uber-charming passthrough that could double as a closet connecting to one of the middle bedrooms. Both of the two middle bedrooms are large and sunny; they share a ceramic tile hall bath with original cast iron tub and skylight. This great location is two blocks off Germantown Ave for shopping and dining and two blocks from Carpenter Park for super convenient green- and play space.
