If you love Del Ray, this is one great location - 1/2 block from all the popular shops and restaurants on Mt. Vernon Ave! This charming 1962 Brick Rambler was built to last. Enjoy the open-concept that is airy and bright and the original hardwood floors throughout the main level. The custom kitchen includes a farmhouse sink, concrete countertops, Jenn-Air gas stovetop, Jenn-Air gas oven, dishwasher, vintage lighting, and the custom island that includes glass cabinets. (The refrigerator does not convey.) There is ample storage in the kitchen and a custom cabinet that conceals the microwave. Enjoy the wood-burning fireplace on the main level. All 3 bedrooms are on the main level, each with French doors. The 3rd BR off the living room would also make a great home office! The first full bathroom is on the main level and features a new shower/tub combo and a timeless marble countertop. The lower level is 80% finished with lots of light (southern exposure) and includes the 2nd full custom bathroom with a shower. There is also a laundry room, walk-in closet, and generous storage space. The lower level al so includes a large bonus room (600 sq feet) with custom built-in shelves with a walk-out door to the back yard. There are so many possibilities here - a home schooling area with all the shelving, a TV and entertainment area, a home gym, a play area, hobby area, another home office area and even a space for a guest bedroom. The back yard is fully fenced with an 8 foot high wood fence. It's perfect for pets and features a metal safety gate and a dog-door. All of the windows are double-pane glass. Some recent updates -- a new HVAC system & A/C unit (2023), a new Water Heater (2020), new Washer/Dryer (2020). Off-street parking includes the driveway in front as well as parallel parking in the rear just outside the back fence along the alley. You will be within 1.3 miles of both the Braddock & Potomac Yd. Metro Stations and you're minutes to Reagan National Airport. Only a few blocks to the YMCA, Walgreens and Aldi, too. Don't miss this chance to live in the middle of everything Del Ray has to offer!
