Urban oasis in Old Town with no HOA! Step through the white picket fence into a small pollinator garden, followed by raised beds featuring delicious squash, tomatoes and greens. Once at the door, you'll be sighing with satisfaction walking into the peaceful living area of this 3 bedroom townhome in the popular SW quadrant. Renovated in 2013, this home is filled with upscale touches like crown molding, wainscoting and dark stained hardwood flooring. The kitchen has been turned from a crackerbox into a chef's dream! Farmhouse ceramic sink with large rinse spigot, spacious gas range and cabinets and shelving all around! Walk out from the kitchen through the double door to the private deck and green backyard, which also features a solidly constructed shed. Once a "she-shed", it can be whatever you need - outdoor relaxation space...storage for your bikes and camping gear... wood workshop! Hardwired for electricity, you have lots of options. Upper-level features 3 bedrooms, one of which is currently styled as a walk-in closet featuring Elfa shelving and racks. The best part - it's easily removed and bingo - bedroom once more! The primary bedroom on the back features the quiet peace of the rear yard and a small Juliet balcony in wrought iron through French doors. Invite in the tranquil air on pleasant evenings through the screen doors. The other bedroom features built-in shelving and an east facing window for morning light that cannot be beat. The basement features a large recreation room with space for storage or a den, plus a bright utility room with washer and dryer. The space under the stairs is also finished with built-in shelving for extra storage! With a WalkScore of 85, you are only a pleasant walk of .75 miles to King St Metro station, and less than 4 miles by car to DCA Reagan National Airport. It's also only 2 turns from the front door to 495 - very quick access to the highway!
