Behind the historic 1920 facade, a happy urban cottage awaits on quiet, tree-lined Kearny Street NE. For over a century, happy folks have called this expanded, nearly 2600 sq ft bungalow home. The preserved moldings, character, and warmth of that time are still evident throughout the house. Modern touches accentuate the way we live now, but it's all about a warm, inviting, and cozy place to build memories. The 4BR/4FB layout is generous and flexible. The main floor features wide-open living and dining + a well-organized kitchen with a place for nearly everything that opens onto a full-width, four-season sun room. These happy, bright spaces are currently configured as casual dining and children's play space: perfect for entertaining, homework, or simply hanging out. Rounding out the main level is a bedroom with connected full bath right now used as a handsome office. Head upstairs for two full-size bedrooms, each with its own full bath and well kitted-out walk-in closets! The fully-finished walkout lower level has a welcome family room and another full-size bedroom + bath. Add laundry, systems, more closets, and a handy mudroom that opens onto a covered patio. Enjoy the outdoors in style. Welcoming front porch, comfortable rear deck just off the breakfast area, and fully fenced yard for days. Garden storage, established garden beds, and generous carport are icing on the cake. Here's the difference: it's all been done for you with an extensive list of seller improvements. It's ready, set, GO for a big dose of holiday cheer! Nicely situated near the Brookland/Woodridge border, just a few blocks to shopping, restaurants, library, recreation, and parks. Brookland/CUA METRO nearby. More square footage, amenities, and green space than you thought you could expect.
