Functional kitchen layout. Great storage, pantry and closet space which is tough to find in DC townhomes. Very unique features that aren't common.."

The lower level is a versatile, fully functional space, ideal for guests or use as a separate dwelling unit. Designed with flexibility in mind, it features 8-foot ceilings, sound insulation between floors, and fire-rated ceilings, offering privacy and security. This level includes:
Two spacious bedrooms, each with an en-suite bathroom for maximum convenience and comfort.
Separate access from both the front and rear of the home, providing easy entry and exit.
Full kitchen hookups with provisions for an electric range, microwave, and dishwasher, as well as a separate washer and dryer connection, making it suitable for a self-contained living space.
