Property Description
Set on a quiet, tree-lined street in Penn Branch, this charming Hillcrest home offers a comfortable blend of character, space, and everyday practicality. A classic covered front porch sets the tone—perfect for morning coffee, evening unwinding, or simply enjoying the rhythm of the neighborhood.
Inside, the home has been thoughtfully refreshed while maintaining its original warmth. Hardwood floors run throughout, complemented by fresh paint and a layout that flows easily from the sun-filled living room into a spacious dining area. The updated kitchen balances style and function with quartz countertops, a marble backsplash, open shelving, and stainless-steel appliances—well suited for both everyday cooking and casual entertaining.
Upstairs, two well-proportioned bedrooms share a beautifully updated full bath. The lower level adds flexibility with a comfortable family or recreation room and a second full bath, offering options for guests, work-from-home space, or additional living area.
Practical upgrades include a modern washer and dryer, a newer hot water heater, and owned solar panels that help keep energy costs in check.
The location offers easy access around the city while still feeling residential. Pennsylvania Avenue, bus routes, nearby Metro stations, and I-295 are all close at hand, making daily errands and commutes straightforward. Outdoor space is never far, with Anacostia Park and Fort Circle Park nearby for walking, biking, or getting outside.
A welcoming home in a well-established neighborhood, offering comfort, convenience, and room to settle in.
