Property Description
Now assigned to MacArthur Elementary and offering rare space and privacy just minutes from Old Town and Metro, this classic brick colonial sits on a quiet street backing to trees and parkland in Coopers Grove. Built in 2010 by Calvert Luxury Homes and offering approximately 4,934 total square feet across four finished levels the home delivers the size, layout, and flexibility today's buyers struggle to find this close to DC. The main level flows naturally from formal living and dining spaces into an up to date kitchen with center island and breakfast bar, opening to a generous family room with built-ins and gas fireplace. Step outside to a true outdoor living space with a patio, built-in outdoor kitchen, and wood-burning fireplace, perfect for hosting friends or relaxed evenings at home. Upstairs features four bedrooms, three full baths, and laundry on the same level, including a renovated primary suite with spa-style bath and custom oversized walk-in closet. The finished attic provides a private fifth bedroom or office suite. The fully finished lower level adds even more flexibility with a theater room, recreation space, gym, wet bar, and full bath, easily serving as a sixth bedroom or guest area. Brick front construction, two-car side-entry garage, parks and multi use trails nearby, plus quick access to King Street Metro, 395, 495, National Airport, and Washington DC offers a rare combination of size, condition, and location that simply works for everyday life. Owners prefer occupancy through June.
