Sorry, multiple offers and Open House CANCELLED. All Covid procedures followed. Masks MUST be worn. Charming porchfront rowhouse with a cute front yard is the perfect 2BR/1BA starter home or condo alternative, with a deep back yard and patio, just 3 blocks to Lincoln Park. Curl up with a book in the living room featuring exposed brick and wood floor or nosh in the dining room that can seat 8 and has a window and coffered ceiling. The efficient kitchen features stainless steel appliances (new oven 2016), decorative tilework, and an exposed brick wall. Upstairs skylights make things bright, and the front bedroom has hardwood floors and 2 windows with custom wooden shutters. Beautiful new bathroom has oversized Carrara marble vanity and pocket door. Rear bedroom fits queen-size bed and has a large walk-in closet with 2 windows and the perfect spot for a desk (hello, private WFH space!) Stacked washer/dryer on upper level, too. Rest easy, knowing that the furnace was replaced in 2020 (and vents cleaned), the main roof was newly-sealed and skylights replaced in 2019, and porch roof will be replaced before closing. Relax on the front porch and chat with neighbors, or head out back to the DEEP, shady, grassy backyard with patio space for socially-distant al fresco entertaining, surrounded by a new cedar fence and convenient shed at the side. There is a pedestrian gate to the alley but note that the space immediately behind the fence is a separate lot and is NOT part of this sale (although the owners of 116 have parked there for years without incident). Enjoy living a short stroll to everything: coffee at the Hill Cafe is 1 block, social distancing mecca Lincoln Park is 3 blocks, Metro is 4 blocks and brand-new Maury is 5 blocks. The new Safeway and the Pretzel Bakery are nearby as well. A few blocks east are the tennis and basketball courts at Eastern, new ballfields and upcoming redevelopment of RFK and Reservation 13, plus easy access to the Anacostia River Bike Trail, the Arboretum, or BW Parkway/I-95. Carpe diem!
