Description

Just one block from Del Ray’s vibrant restaurant and retail promenade, this beautifully maintained 2BR/1.5BA home offers rare walkability, charm, and everyday convenience. Commuting is effortless with Metro less than a half‑mile away, the Pentagon Express bus at the top of the street, and DCA only 3 miles from your door. Inside, updates blend seamlessly with vintage charm, preserving the home’s warmth while adding thoughtful modern touches. The magazine‑featured kitchen showcases quarter‑sawn oak cabinetry, Italian‑imported stone, custom tilework, and a built‑in buffet—an artisan space designed for both cooking and gathering. The main level features sun‑filled living and dining spaces with original details and inviting flow. Upstairs, two serene bedrooms enjoy excellent natural light and a classic full bath that retains its original character. A full basement offers exceptional flexibility—perfect for crafts, recreation, a workshop, or convenient storage. Outside, the professionally maintained, landscape‑designed front garden creates a welcoming first impression and is included in the rent. The private fenced backyard provides a quiet retreat for morning coffee or evening unwinding. A rare opportunity to live steps from Del Ray’s energy while enjoying the comfort, character, and ease of a thoughtfully cared‑for home. Landlord will provide $100/month help for SOME front garden maintenance. Garage and driveway NOT INCLUDED
