Open Houses Cancelled - Under Contract. This 1917 Wardman Row house is nestled on a quiet, tree-lined street in the heart of 16th Street Heights. Filled with architectural charm, period details include high ceilings, intricate moldings, an original staircase banister, and a stately fireplace with a classic mantel. The main level features a spacious living room, formal dining room, kitchen with pantry/ storage area, breakfast room, and powder room. On the second level are two generously sized bedrooms, a smaller 3rd bedroom/ office/ nursery, two full bathrooms, and a sunroom that opens to a private deck. A large walk-up attic offers abundant storage and also the potential for future expansion. The lower level offers a separate legal basement apartment with a certificate of occupancy. Outside, enjoy a deep yard, patio, and a 2-car brick garage. Enjoy close proximity to restaurants, parks, groceries, schools, and playgrounds. It is just a short distance to multiple bus lines and a mile to the Petworth Metro. Just blocks away are Carter Barron, The Highlands, Moreland's Tavern, the Hamilton Rec Center, Upshur Pool, the Petworth Library, Farmer’s Market and more.
*Taxable value of land and structures on it ("additions") is determined regularly by local assessors and does not affect market price.
