This two bedroom condo is a rare gem! The owners bought it with a vision and made it their dream with a little whimsy and a whole lot of modern. Style and charm define the space, from the soothing textured waves on the living room wall, to the large farmhouse kitchen sink overlooking the woods, to the smartly designed kitchen pantry/laundry room ( washer/ dryer in unit!) that can double as a Zoom-friendly office. The kitchen was opened up to add light and flow between rooms and views from the kitchen. The spacious feel is supported by added shelves in the closets, additional built-in cabinets in the pantry and kitchen, and a 50 sq ft storage unit in the building’s basement.
This gem is located in the sought after McClean Gardens community, once the renowned McClean family estate, nestled into and overlooking the Glover-Archbold Park woods. Steps from your door you’re in the woods and enjoying a beautiful wooded trail and gurgling stream all the way to Georgetown and the Potomac. Set back from the road on a quiet and blossoming courtyard with towering oaks, the building sits right next to a shady children’s playground and cherry blossom field. Two blocks down is the bigger, more adventure-packed Newark St playground, adjacent to Newark St dog park, tennis courts and sprawling community gardens. And there’s more community to enjoy at the McClean garden swimming pool just one block away.
Your new home is only three blocks from wonderful restaurants, shops and great grocery options on Wisconsin Ave, with the district’s first Wegmans opening with a new park and urban village at the historic Fannie Mae building only 2 blocks away. The National Cathedral with its charming gardens, woods and amphitheater is just a short 10 minute walk. For green space even closer to home, the McClean Gardens campus itself has ample green lawns with a variety of tall and flowering trees shading many a bench for picnics or friendly chats with neighbors, weaving across the historic campus, giving residents the opportunity to be connected to nature simply just by stepping out of your front door.
Leaving this oasis has been an extremely hard decision for the current owners, but they are ready to pass the gift along!
