This charming, brick Foursquare-style house built in 1909 has everything you love in historic homes...a deep front porch with columns, tall ceilings and windows, hardwood floors, craftsman details in the window/door frames, baseboards and banisters, a gracious entry Foyer and a formal Dining Room with a tin ceiling and bay windows. You get all these charming features along with the comforts of updated systems and equipment (the roof and all electrical wiring have been recently replaced), a renovated kitchen with almost 20 linear feet of counter space and 42" tall upper cabinets, high-end new appliances, a cleverly organized main floor laundry room and pretty main floor powder room. There are three sunny bedrooms and a renovated bathroom upstairs. You will love all the storage throughout the house, including an entire upstairs room converted into a massive walk-in closet for the spacious Master Bedroom (if desired, this could easily be converted back into a small bedroom or home office).The spacious corner lot is fenced and includes a tall privacy hedge in the back. There is off-street parking and a roomy storage shed. Situated in vibrant Mount Rainier, right across the DC line just at the start of the Gateway Arts District, the house is perfectly located for easy exploration of all the shopping, restaurants, art galleries that the area has to offer. The house is right next to Barnard Hill Park and close to nature trails, recreation activities and the rich history provided by the Anacostia River. Easy driving and public transportation access to downtown D.C., Hyattsville and Brookland.
