Some homes are built for a season. Others are built for a life. This one belongs to the second kind. It starts outside — a rare double lot that gives you room to breathe, a 135-year-old silver maple casting shade over a backyard built for lingering, and a waterfall tucked into mature landscaping that turns an ordinary evening into something worth stepping outside for. A veggie garden waits for the next set of hands. An oversized deck waits for the next gathering. Inside, the kitchen leads the way — reimagined in 2017 with an island, new countertops, and a backsplash that ties it all together. Nine-foot ceilings give every room space to breathe. Both bathrooms have been refreshed with marble floors, and the sunroom has been given new life. Downstairs, an epoxy-finished basement adds flexible space for whatever your next chapter needs. The systems are ready too: new roof, 200-amp electrical service (100 amps to the garage, pre-wired for an EV charger), and a 2-year-old induction range with a gas hookup standing by. And the location does the rest. Two blocks to Huset Park. Minutes to Columbia Park and its golf course. Close enough to neighborhood restaurants that you'll actually walk there. This is Columbia Heights — a place where the community feeling isn't a listing cliché, it's just true. This home didn't just get updated. It got loved. Now it's ready for whoever's next.
