So you want to live or invest in one of the hottest neighborhoods in DC? Now's your chance! Gallantly perched atop a private knoll, this rarely available home feels like it sits in the sky with all the bright sunshine and glorious light that enters throughout the day. Walk in from the sitting porch out front, or from your level back driveway, which has enough off-street parking space for one (or possibly two) cars, plus your motorcycle or moped. If you so choose, convert your grassy rear driveway to a lengthy outdoor garden. As you enter from the rear, the enormous finished basement runs the length of this home, and has plenty of storage space, plus a modern powder room/half bathroom. The lower level also has a roomy separate laundry room with newer washer and dryer. The first floor of this home offers a large living room, ceiling fans in every room, and extra closet space. Using the french doors that lead from your dining room, enter into your bonus sitting room. Make this area your office or den, entertainment space, yoga studio retreat, exercise room, or even a garden greenhouse. There's also a galley kitchen with plenty of cabinets, and it has a two-way entrance from either the living room or dining room. If you so choose, open the kitchen's divider wall to make a robust open-area blended kitchen and dining room. Upstairs there are two oversized bedrooms. If you select the rear upper room for your master suite, you'll also enjoy a bonus terrace off the master bedroom - it could be your personal sunroom or even a huge walk-in closet! Your second floor bathroom is surrounded by subway tile and has a claw foot tub where you can soak your worries away while treating yourself to an elegant bath, dreamily looking at your skylight above. While this home, with its lovely hardwood floors, solid wood doors, finished basement, fenced-in backyard, and bonus rooms may need upgrades, it is move-in ready. You know you ll love this home for its gas cooking, radiator heat AND central air conditioning! Steps away from the Rhode Island Row, Rhode Island Avenue Shopping Center, Rhode Island metro (red line), buses, bike share, and shopping like Home Depot, Giant Grocery Shopping, Ross, this home offers ultimate living conveniences. You'll also be part of the first wave to experience the new retail and mixed used development nearby that includes a movie theater, dog park and pedestrian plaza (Bryant Project). This home is also situated conveniently between Catholic University, Howard University, Gallaudet University, Eckington, Brookland, Brentwood, Bloomingdale, and blocks from all the nightlife of some of DC's hottest, most modern places to explore, such as Shaw and the U Street Corridor. Don t wait! Come join the neighbors who love this neighborhood. Make this home your oasis! **Home being Sold AS-IS
