Property Description
Set within the sought after Spring Valley neighborhood and moments from the conveniences of Massachusetts Avenue, this end-unit townhome offers the space and comfort of a single-family residence with exceptional access to everyday amenities. Inside, light-filled interiors and private outdoor spaces provide a serene, welcoming atmosphere that feels pleasantly removed from the vibrancy of its surroundings. The main level unfolds effortlessly from room to room. A spacious and open living room with fireplace anchors this level while a well-appointed kitchen offers ample room to cook together and enjoy meals in the sunny breakfast nook or in the adjoining formal dining room. South-facing French doors from both the living and dining rooms open to a private, landscaped patio and garden-an inviting setting for morning coffee, relaxed weeknight dinners, or weekend entertaining. A foyer, library or home office, and a discreet powder room complete this level. Upstairs, three bright bedrooms include a serene primary suite with generous closet space and an ensuite bath, along with two large guest bedrooms that share a hall bath. Laundry is conveniently located on the bedroom level, enhancing everyday ease. The recently renovated lower level adds exceptional flexibility, featuring a spacious family room, a private bedroom with a full bath ideal for guests, in-laws, or an au pair, and an oversized storage room with two cedar closets. Two dedicated off-street parking spaces are located just steps from the kitchen's side entrance, along with a convenient outdoor storage shed-perfect for bikes, strollers, gardening tools, or an active, on-the-go lifestyle. Impeccably maintained and move-in ready, this home blends timeless design with thoughtful updates in one of Washington, DC's most desirable neighborhoods-just moments from neighborhood favorites, nearby parks, and within the Mann/Hardy/MacArthur school pyramid.
