Property Description

Classic brick colonial on a fenced corner lot in the heart of Del Ray, with something rare for the neighborhood: parking for four cars, with a detached two-car garage (new doors 2019) plus driveway space for two more. Five bedrooms, 3.5 baths, and 2,455 finished square feet across four levels, with hardwood floors throughout. The main level was remodeled in 2016 to open up the kitchen, dining, and family room. The kitchen has white shaker cabinetry to the ceiling with glass-front uppers, a textured basketweave backsplash, a stainless farmhouse sink, a six-burner gas cooktop with retractable ventilation hood in the peninsula with bar seating, double wall ovens, and a French door refrigerator with dual freezer drawers. The pendants are custom pieces made from vintage glass electric-line insulators. The dining area has a built-in buffet, display cabinetry, and built-in banquette seating with storage. The rear family room centers on an imported Danish Morso wood-burning insert framed in marble herringbone tile, surrounded by custom built-in bookcases, two window seats, an exposed brick wall, and French doors to the deck. The formal living room has a second wood-burning fireplace, and the bright office has a French door and a built-in desk. A marble-tiled half bath and a mudroom entrance with built-in bench, hooks, and a Restoration Hardware mirror that opens for extra storage complete the level. Upstairs, the primary suite includes an ensuite bath, a walk-in closet, and a separate cedar closet. Two more bedrooms share a hall bath remodeled with marble herringbone floors, subway tile to the ceiling, and a glass tub/shower enclosure. The finished top level has its own heating and cooling, recessed lighting, and four storage closets, plus a removable banister so large furniture moves up easily; it is ideal as a fourth bedroom, guest suite, studio, or playroom. The lower level adds a rec room, a fifth bedroom, a full bath, laundry, a large unfinished storage and workshop area, and an exterior entrance. Elfa closet systems throughout. Outside, enjoy the composite deck with custom railings, slate and brick patios with a seating wall, and established edible gardens with espaliered heritage apple trees, a plum tree, berries, lavender hedges, climbing roses, peonies, hydrangeas, a lilac, and a cherry tree. Roof 2005 (50-year), basement waterproofed 2008 with interior French drain and sump pump, water heater 2020, main HVAC 2021. Steps to the shops and restaurants along The Avenue.
