Welcome to this lovely three-level townhome on a quiet (dead-end) street in the sought-after southeast quadrant of Old Town.
The home is located in Yates Garden on one of its most charming streets. The front yard features wonderful plantings, including a 60 year old crepe myrtle and a mature Yellowwood that boasts beautiful wisteria like plumes in midspring. Pass through this oasis to the covered front porch and enjoy sitting and watching the world go by.
Enter into the spacious living room with east facing window to provide natural light, a romantic corner fireplace with an antique wooden mantel (new chimney liner-2026), hardwood floors, and crown molding.
Continue into the separate octagonal dining room which has four lighted built-in China cabinets and pseudo mirrored French doors that lend elegance to formal dining room. Off the dining room is a wonderful sunroom addition that could be used as a breakfast and/or sitting room. Enjoy gazing out through the sliding glass doors to the recently redone flagstone patio and pond. There's plenty of room for a grill and to sit in front of a firepit surrounded by the cozy brick walls.
The galley kitchen is spacious with multiple cabinets, ample counter space, dual-fuel range, and a new refrigerator.
The upper level gives you two bedrooms and one full bath. The primary bedroom has two closets and room for a king-sized bed! The second bedroom (with a hand painted ceiling) gives way to a second sunroom that would be a wonderful home office - if you don't get distracted by the dreamy view over the patio. The hall bath has vintage black and white tiles, a new sink and glass shower door. Be sure to note the brass fittings (locks, bannister) that appear throughout.
The lower level has a finished family room with built-ins and a refreshed bath. The unfinished portions include a good-sized laundry (ELFA system conveys), and lots of storage. New hot water heater in 2026.
The slate 100-year roof was inspected in 2025 and got a glowing review. The copper gutters were also installed in 2025. The home has been freshly painted throughout, and the hardwood floors were just refinished at the end of October 2026. There is a dedicated private parking space out front!
The house is centrally located; within walking distance to shopping, restaurants, parks, the river and all that Old Town has to offer. Easy access to Reagan National Airport, GW Parkway, DC, National Harbor and bike/running trails. Hop on Routes 395 and 495!
The residence has been lovingly maintained by the current owner of 26 years. It has been a perfect place for her and she hopes you too find great happiness here.
