Set along a picturesque tree-lined stretch of Petworth, just across from the grounds of President Lincoln's Cottage, this beautifully renovated 1916 Federal residence seamlessly blends timeless Washington architecture with sophisticated modern living. Spanning three finished levels, the home welcomes with gracious proportions, abundant natural light, and an effortless flow designed for both everyday comfort and elegant entertaining. An inviting front porch, rich hardwood floors, refined finishes, and thoughtfully curated updates create a warm yet elevated atmosphere throughout. The spacious main level offers multiple gathering spaces, while the fully renovated kitchen serves as the heart of the home, opening to private outdoor space ideal for al fresco dining and weekend entertaining. Upstairs there are three generously sized bedrooms, complemented by two updated baths and ample storage. Above this level is a bonus loft, which serves as an additional work or play space. The finished lower level offers exceptional flexibility, ideal as a guest suite, home office, recreation room, fitness space, or additional living quarters with kitchenette, front and back entrances, and a laundry connection. Parking for two cars off a rear alley completes the property. Beyond the residence itself, the location is truly exceptional, just steps from the Cottage’s expansive grounds, green spaces, and cultural programming. Public events like Lincoln’s Cottage Homecoming and Bourbon & Bluegrass create a unique connection to one of the city’s most significant landmarks. Residents also benefit from easy access to all the amenities that make Petworth one of the city most sought after destinations, including Upshur Street’s Michelin-rated restaurants, cafes, neighborhood parks and playgrounds, and a Metro Station, connecting the neighborhood to all of the DC area. Offering historic character, modern convenience, and an unrivaled sense of place, 205 Rock Creek Church presents a rare opportunity to own a wonderful home in one of the capital's most dynamic neighborhoods. ALSO AVAILABLE FOR RENT.
