About this home
416 Whittier Street NW is a rare blend of classic architecture, modern upgrades, and an exceptional location — just 0.3 miles to the Takoma Red Line Metro station and less than half a mile to the Takoma Park high street. This classic Washington DC center-hall brick Colonial has been thoughtfully and extensively improved by an interior designer, with more than $175,000 in functional and aesthetic updates since 2022, creating a home that feels both timeless and turnkey.
Offering approximately 3,500 square feet of finished living space, the home features four bedrooms, three and a half baths, generous outdoor space, ample storage, and off-street parking. Light-filled rooms span three beautifully designed levels, providing flexibility for entertaining, working from home, and everyday living.
The main level welcomes you through a new custom front door into a gracious foyer and a bright living room with a re-lined, working fireplace. A handsome study with French doors opens directly onto the rear deck, while the open-concept kitchen with built-in window seats flows seamlessly into the dining room—ideal for gatherings large and small. A renovated powder room and a charming “winter garden”/sunroom complete the level, offering a serene space for morning coffee, yoga, or creative pursuits.
Indoor-outdoor living truly shines here. A large deck overlooks a deep, private backyard with a fire pit —an inviting setting for summer entertaining or quiet evenings at home—and offers a striking view of the home’s architecturally distinctive rear addition. Storage is abundant, with ample closets throughout, a dedicated outdoor storage house, and a detached garage with electric door accessed from the alley.
Upstairs, the expansive primary suite is a peaceful retreat, featuring high ceilings, Palladian windows, a separate reading or sitting area behind French doors, and a spacious ensuite bath with a jacuzzi tub and separate shower. Two additional well-sized bedrooms with custom closets, a renovated full bath, and laundry complete this level.
Recent improvements elevate both comfort and efficiency, including refinished hardwood floors, repainting throughout with Farrow & Ball paint, updated kitchen and baths, a high-efficiency boiler and tankless water heater, refurbished radiators, LED recessed lighting, sump pump installation, crawlspace encapsulation and reinforcement beneath the addition, and a renovated lower level—among many other upgrades.
Set on a picturesque residential street yet moments from Metro, downtown Takoma Park, local restaurants and grocery stores, this home delivers the best of city convenience with a true neighborhood feel. 416 Whittier Street NW is where classic elegance meets modern living—an exceptional opportunity not to be missed.
