About this home
Gorgeous and expansive American Foursquare filled with sunlight in coveted 16th Street Heights. Set on an incredible lot with a rare, flat side yard, this beautifully scaled home offers more than 3,800 square feet across four finished levels, blending timeless architecture with flexible modern living. With 6 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, an attached garage, and solar panels, this home is truly not to be missed.
Step from the wide and welcoming front porch into a large entry foyer with built-ins for convenient storage. A brick fireplace greets you as you move into the double living room, a bright and inviting space flooded with natural light. The living room overlooks an elegant side porch that leads directly to the large side lawn and garden, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. The generous dining room easily accommodates ten, and is perfect for hosting gatherings. Just beyond, the kitchen offers abundant counter space and cabinetry for all your storage and prep needs, along with stainless steel appliances and a breakfast bar for casual dining. A laundry room on the main floor completes the level.
The second level features three large bedrooms, each with multiple exposures that fill the rooms with natural light. The spacious primary suite includes a large walk-in closet and an en-suite bathroom with double vanities. A well-appointed hall bath serves the additional bedrooms on this level.
Above, the third floor feels like a respite in the sky, with windows on all sides and skylights that flood the space with light. The open layout offers tremendous flexibility, with multiple areas that can easily serve as additional bedrooms, play space, studio space, or work-from-home areas.
The finished basement adds even more versatility, featuring a kitchen, large common living and dining area, bedroom with walk-in closet, full bath, additional laundry, and a separate office, along with access to the attached garage—ideal for guests, extended family, or potential income opportunities.
Location puts the best of the city right at your fingertips. A short stroll down the street brings you to neighborhood favorites like Zeke’s Coffee, The Highlands, Atxondo, and other beloved local cafés and eateries. Continue a bit further to enjoy the vibrant dining scene along Upshur Street in Petworth, as well as the Petworth Library and the Georgia Ave–Petworth Metro for easy commuting. Outdoor and recreation lovers will appreciate close proximity to the trails of Rock Creek Park, the fields and tennis courts at Carter Barron, the beloved Hamilton Street Park, and Upshur Pool.
