This sunny c. 1915 Chevy Chase colonial “farmhouse” is available to rent for up to 3 years and is located a few blocks from the Connecticut Avenue corridor and just 2 blocks to Lafayette Elementary School. With great access to public transportation... and multiple commuter routes in and out of the city, this light-filled home offers convenience and style whether for work, play, or daily living, and recent renovations capture the best of old and new by highlighting original architectural gems and blending them with a floor plan that fits your needs today!

WELCOME! From the front, a welcoming “rocking porch” will tempt you to linger while you catch up with family and friends and the home’s generous entry hall sets the tone for designer details to come. Favorites include original pine floors throughout most of the main level, an open-concept kitchen and great room addition with fantastic indoor-outdoor flow, and the entry’s delicately patterned Chinoiserie wallpaper and its adorable pagoda-themed chandelier that are at once classic and fresh!

MAIN: Entry, LR, DR, Open Kitchen/Great Room, 1/2 BA. Enjoy the home’s spacious living room with a decorative fireplace and the high-ceilinged formal dining room, both of which lead to a fabulous open kitchen and great room at the rear. Beautiful, creamy cabinetry and stainless appliances combine to add a ‘wow’ factor to daily living, and an excellent indoor-outdoor entertaining flow to the property’s rear deck and spacious enclosed brick patio are just steps away and always within view. A sunny corner nook in the great room provides a convenient space for homework or a home office station, and a stylish half-bath offers even more designer touches. Painted floors in the great room are low-maintenance and add to the casual vibe of the space.

2ND FLOOR: 2BR, 2BA, and a BONUS ROOM. Two upper floors provide private getaways galore! The luxurious primary suite features a large sleeping area highlighted by exposed brick, a walk-in closet, and a crisp, newly finished bathroom with a walk-in shower and another large closet. The second bedroom is breezy and is complemented by a full hallway bath. A third room-sized landing on this level is flexible as a sunny home office, storage, spillover space, or lounge leading to the 3rd floor’s coveted attic aerie.

3RD FLOOR: 3rd BR Attic Retreat with sloped ceilings, window seat, and storage in the eaves and brand-new, neutral carpeting. CAC with supplemental window unit available.

BASEMENT: A full, unfinished basement houses the laundry area and offers plentiful storage and shelving for anything and everything!

OUTSIDE: The detached garage is now used for storage and is great for bikes, gear, or gardening tools (about the size of one car.) A spacious deck and shady brick patio provide all the room you need for outdoor activities. Partially fenced (new fencing installed along alley way after photos were taken!)

Indoors and out, this home will fulfill your wish list AND feed your soul! No pets preferred.
