OPEN HOUSE IS CANCELLED. THE SELLERS HAVE RATIFIED A CONTRACT. The essence of “town and country” living, this beautiful residence offers easy access to all of the amenities of Historic Kensington within the serenity of an idyllic garden setting. Set back from the street, the cottage-style home has wonderful sightlines from front to back, with French doors and abundant windows allowing sunlight to saturate the living spaces. The primary living areas include a family room with a soaring vaulted ceiling and pellet stove, a dining room with a gas fireplace, and a remodeled kitchen with an island, open shelving, stainless appliances and a built-in butler’s pantry. There are two bedrooms and a full bath on the main level along with a bonus room that the owners used for reading and a home office. The owner’s bedroom is upstairs and is enhanced with lovely garden views, built-in niches and a full bath. The lower level offers so much flexible living space: perfect for a playroom, recreation room, another home office and/or exercise equipment. There is another bedroom and full bath, a workshop with built-ins, walls of shelving and the laundry room. Sliding doors open to a brick patio and the beautiful gardens beyond. A fabulous deck off the main level is an entertainer’s dream, overlooking and stepping down to grounds designed by a master gardener. Specimen plantings and a fully fenced level lawn create a breathtaking backdrop for leisure and outdoor celebrations. In keeping with the cottage character, a two-car detached garage is tucked off to the side and accessed by the wide driveway. Located within Kensington’s stunning historic district, this residence is moments from shops and restaurants, walking trails into Rock Creek Park, and the Marc Train into the city. From its inviting covered front porch to its stunning display of natural beauty out back, this is an exceptional home!
