Beautiful, light-filled, end-unit rowhouse with private yard in a premium Palisades location - close to restaurants, park trails, coffee shops, and the farmers market! Perched above a quiet and bucolic stretch of Reservoir Rd, this stately home's main level features a large and open living room lit by south-facing windows, refinished hardwood floors throughout, high ceilings, exposed brick, original mouldings, an updated kitchen with granite counters, and an adjacent dining room that steps out to the back patio. Upstairs offers a primary bedroom with en suite bathroom and three large closets, two additional bedrooms, and a second updated bathroom in the hallway. The lower level then gives versatility with two different spaces - a family room/office as well as a guest bedroom/gym - plus a third full bathroom and a large laundry and storage room. Outside you can enjoy sunsets on the elevated front porch with incredible southern views, entertaining guests on the back patio, or playing catch along the side yard. The yard and patio have enhanced privacy from a six foot fence as well as gate access to the alley for easy coming and going. The home's location is so uniquely positive that you really have to experience it for yourself! In the heart of the Palisades community with close proximity to neighborhood favorites like BlackSalt and Lupo Verde, the library, the farmers market, Black Coffee, park trails and green spaces along the canal, and in bounds for Key ES, Hardy MS, and the new MacArthur HS. Welcome home!
