A quintessential front porch colonial in highly desirable Chevy Chase DC in need of renovation. Located on a pretty tree lined street of restored and remodeled homes of similar vintage, this home built in 1935 presents a rare opportunity for an investor or an end user to realize their creative vision in a delightful amenity rich community.
There are four levels of finished space, with a 4823 square foot mostly level lot, and alley access to a garage and one off street parking space. This home offers attractive potential expansion possibilities.
Step back in time to solid brick construction, graceful original arched openings between the rooms on the main level, wood burning fireplaces in the living room and in the finished lower level recreation room and the charm and quality of construction of the era in which this home was built.
The dining room has a bay window that overlooks the rear garden.
Other original features include handsome woodwork and bannisters on the stairways, electric wall sconces in the living room, dining room and lower level recreation room, and period wood doors.
The second level has three bedrooms and two baths.
Stairs on the landing of the second level lead to a finished attic with built in storage. The lower level includes a bathroom, a storage room, laundry area and a utility room.
