Property Description
Perched elegantly above the street with views of Glover-Archbold Park, this beautifully maintained home in Wesley Heights is a quintessential example of Cape Cod architecture, blended seamlessly with Colonial Revival influences. Inside, you'll find four bedrooms-plus a finished loft-and three and a half baths spread over four levels measuring more than 3,600 square feet of finished living space. Hardwood floors throughout, two fireplaces, smart home automation, remodeled kitchens and baths, numerous system upgrades, and countless other improvements make this home a turnkey, style-savvy tribute to mid-century design, thoughtfully adapted for modern living. On the main level, you'll enter a cozy foyer that leads to a fully renovated kitchen on one side and a welcoming living room with gas fireplace on the other. The circular flow of the main level takes you from a delicious dinner off the gorgeous open kitchen, to cocktails or conversation in the living room, on to board games or a movie in the back sunroom and a game of fetch and relaxing with family and friends in the beautifully landscaped backyard, complete with built-in gas grill. There is also a half bath and stacked laundry on the main level. Upstairs, three spacious bedrooms and two renovated full baths include a primary suite with a large walk-in closet/dressing room and a primary bath featuring dual sinks and radiant floor heating. A finished loft on the top floor makes for a perfect home office, playroom, or arts nook. The fully finished basement offers a complete living area for in-laws, an au pair, or guests, with a full kitchen, large living area with a wood-burning fireplace, a full bath, a separate bedroom, a laundry room, and a workroom/additional storage area. Without guests, the basement can be easily repurposed into an in-home gym or office. The driveway offers convenient off-street parking. This fantastic Wesley Heights residence is within bounds of highly rated Horace Mann Elementary and Hardy Middle School, minutes from many of the city's best private schools, and less than a 10-minute drive to dozens of embassies and Georgetown University. Water and sewer are included in the rent. The home is available partially furnished for an additional fee. Up to one dog under 40 pounds is accepted on a case-by-case basis with an additional $500 refundable deposit and $50/month fee (breed restrictions apply). The home is also available for sale; contact the listing agent for details. All individuals 18 years of age or older who will reside in the property must complete a full Rentspree rental application, provide required supporting documentation, and consent to background, credit, and rental-history screening. Applicants must demonstrate a pattern of timely housing payments. A history of delinquent payments and/or unpaid debts, relevant to an applicant's fitness as a tenant, may result in denial. All evaluations will be applied consistently and in accordance with DC Human Rights Act and Fair Credit in Renting requirements. The preferred move-in date is January 15, 2026, or as soon as possible thereafter, and applicants who can meet the preferred occupancy date may receive consideration in the screening process, provided all other qualifications are met. We comply fully with DC's source-of-income protections. We welcome applicants using lawful rental assistance, and voucher use will never be a basis for refusal. This property is offered on a standard private-market lease; all applicants must be able to meet the terms, timelines, and requirements of that lease structure.
