Property Description

Out with the old and enjoy something new - your very own home. A new listing in Palisades with a humble mid-century exterior that gives way to a sun-filled, open interior with a renovated kitchen, a stone fireplace in the living room, and glass doors to a private deck that has plenty of space for entertaining, dining al-fresco or relaxing. The primary bedroom, a quiet guest room, several closets, and a full bath complete this level. The lower level has a cozy family room with a fireplace and sliding doors that provide direct access to a sheltered outdoor area that is both private and versatile. This space can be creatively used as an outdoor seating area, a shaded place to dine or simply a quieter place to escape and enjoy. One additional bedroom, a full bath and laundry complete this level. The house can be easily accessed from the rear through a large, two-car garage, a unique feature for this area, and it too offers a host of possibilities - an art studio, a grand home-office, a yoga or fitness studio, or perhaps an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU). All this, and at this price, in the very popular Palisades neighborhood which offers easy access to downtown DC, MD and VA, and a variety of interesting neighborhoods restaurants to frequent and enjoy. First Open, Sunday, January 11, 1 to 3 pm.
