Property Description
Quintessential 3.5 level historic property with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms in the heart of Old Town just steps from King Street and the river. One of a quartet of plaqued townhouses renovated in 1975 with East West orientation ensuring abundant morning and afternoon light. Original upgrades include 13’ x 15’ extension (dining room and family room walk out) on two levels, Shiplap (waterproof and soundproof) exterior siding and a metal roof. More recently in addition to the appliances and utilities, the present owner has finished the attic and added exterior shutters, a renewed metal roof, copper gutters, French drain, sump pump and Smart lighting. Enter the living room where the original hardwoods, a wood burning fireplace with mantel, chair railing and dentil molding will immediately transport you to a bygone century. The adjoining formal dining room has a stair ledge with wine storage and a spectacular bay window with marble sill and views of the formally laid out garden below. The lower (walk out) level has an eat-in gourmet kitchen with pantry and white appliances set in warm-toned rose granite countertops and matching pale wood cabinetry. An interleading walk-out family room with fan provides the ideal place to relax and entertain informally. There is a full bath on this level with tasteful Travertine wall and floor tiles and a laundry area with ceramic floor tiles and stacked washer dryer. The upper level bedroom has original hardwoods, crown molding, retractable window shutters and built-ins plus fan and an adjoining full bath with Travertine wall and floor tiles with a floral motif. The second bedroom which caters to a double/queen sized bed, has original hardwoods, fan and garden views. There is storage shelving for linen at the base of the upper 2 level stairway which leads to the refinished attic space for den/office and additional generous storage in the eaves. The hardscaped formal garden, with Italianate classical fountain framed by a Japanese maple and dogwood, will beckon on hot Summer nights. The extended lot comprises a Rain Bird irrigation system, garden shed of matching Shiplap siding and asphalt roof, and three off street parking spaces on a gravel driveway. (Entrance to parking area is on N Pitt Street) Walk to restaurants, shops and the river and a 20 minute drive to DC.
