Property Description
A rare opportunity to own an original Sears kit home for those who appreciate architectural heritage -- the "Crescent" model is an American classic known for its welcoming front porch, iconic double front gables, signature curved lines, and timeless curb appeal. Sears kit homes were lovingly built from a catalog that helped shape 20th-century neighborhoods across the country. Upon entering, you immediately notice the original vintage detailing and craftsmanship -- charming original windows, hardwood floors and fireplace with the original mantle. The main floor with high ceilings delivers a living room, dining room, kitchen, and two bedrooms and a full bath. The upper floor has two more bedrooms and shared hall bath as well as a walk-in attic and storage area. The basement with laundry and storage has egress to the large, leafy rear yard. Paces to Blue Ribbon Lafayette Elementary school and park, tennis courts, Broad Branch Market and the weekly farmer's market. Walkable to the shops, sidewalk cafes, The Avalon theatre, DC public library and so much more on Connecticut Ave corridor. Easy access to multiple commuter routes like I-495, Rock Creek Parkway, Connecticut Ave, and Military Rd. So much possibility on this oversized, corner 6,800+ SF lot. This home was featured in the well-known "American Bungalow Style" hardback (on p. 31). The Crescent stands as a piece of living history and they tell a story -- and this one's ready for its next chapter! Property sold AS IS
