Some homes feel special the moment you arrive—and 4938 Quebec St. NW is one of them. Set on a quiet street in one of DC’s most desirable neighborhoods, this classic brick center hall Colonial is beautifully proportioned, filled with natural light, and uniquely positioned with sweeping views of Spring Valley Park. Here, your backyard doesn’t just border green space—it opens directly to it, creating a daily lifestyle of nature, privacy, and ease that’s incredibly rare in the city.
Step inside and the home immediately feels timeless. A gracious center hall foyer sets the tone, flanked by a formal living room with a wood-burning fireplace and built-ins—perfect for cozy evenings or gathering with friends. The separate dining room is made for hosting, whether it’s holiday dinners or casual weeknight meals. Toward the back of the home, the spacious family room is the true showstopper, framed by oversized windows that look out over the park like living artwork in every season. The bright kitchen, lined with picture windows, brings in beautiful natural light and offers a peaceful view while you cook, sip coffee, or pack lunches for the day. From the main level, step out onto the rear deck—ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining—with stairs leading down to the yard and direct access beyond to the park trails and open lawn.
Upstairs, the home offers a comfortable retreat. The primary suite includes an updated bath and walk-in closet, while two additional bedrooms and a hall bathroom provide space for family, guests, or flexible use. The upper level adds even more versatility with a light-filled stair hall, an additional guest bedroom, and extra storage—perfect for anyone who wants room to grow without sacrificing charm.
Downstairs, the lower level creates a second living zone that feels equally inviting, with a comfortable family room anchored by another wood-burning fireplace. A fifth bedroom or home office offers flexibility for guests, work-from-home, or hobbies, and a walk-out to the rear yard makes this level especially functional. A laundry and storage area, half bath, outdoor storage, and a two-car garage round out the everyday conveniences—while the flat, landscaped front yard and tiered rear yard provide outdoor space that feels both private and connected to nature.
And then there’s the neighborhood—where everything you need is close by, but the setting still feels peaceful and residential. Just seven blocks away, Spring Valley Shopping Center offers daily conveniences and favorites like Wagshal’s Market & Deli, CVS, Millie’s, Bluestone Lane, Compass Coffee, Pizza Paradiso, and Starbucks. Tenleytown-AU Metro is about 1.5 miles away, and Friendship Recreation Center—with playgrounds, tennis courts, and ball fields—is less than a mile. Major commuting routes like Wisconsin Avenue, Massachusetts Avenue, and River Road are easily accessible, and Whole Foods, Target, Wegmans, and Giant are all just about a 10-minute drive.
