Property Description
One of Mount Pleasant's few detached residences, this distinguished early 20th-century home blends Queen Anne and Colonial Revival influences through its projecting bay windows, decorative gables, and beautifully preserved original craftsmanship. Set above the street beneath a canopy of mature trees, the home commands attention with its handsome facade and inviting covered front porch. Inside, rich original oak millwork, elegant pocket doors, leaded diamond-pane windows, hardwood floors, and three original fireplaces showcase the craftsmanship of a bygone era, creating warm, character-filled living spaces. A finished attic offers flexible space for a home office, guest suite, playroom, or studio, while the unfinished basement provides abundant storage. Modern comforts include a two-zone Unico high-velocity heating and air conditioning system with discreet, small-profile air outlets. Designed for both everyday living and entertaining, French doors open to a spacious rear deck overlooking the private backyard, while a second deck with pergola provides the perfect setting for outdoor dining, entertaining, or relaxing. Beneath the rear deck, a detached one-car garage provides the rare convenience of off-street parking. Ideally located just moments from Mount Pleasant's restaurants, cafés, farmers market, Rock Creek Park, the National Zoo, and Metro, this exceptional home offers the opportunity to become the next steward of one of Mount Pleasant's finest historic homes.
