1624 F ST NE Washington, DC 20002

1624 F St NE is a rare charmer. This classic Washington rowhome is set back and above the 1600 block of F Street NE, a quiet one-way street. The front porch of these homes is the place to be and neighbors convene in the evenings and on weekends to say hello and enjoy the friendly atmosphere. Step inside and be delighted. The home is tasteful, functional and serene. Gut-renovated in 2011, it has been meticulously cared for by the current owners. The open concept living allows your line of sight to travel the whole first floor, while subtle architectural features define each space. On the first floor, a pocket door leads to a half-bath while the back door takes you down to a private outdoor patio complete with hanging lights. With the basement at ground-level in the rear of the home, you can walk from the patio right into the lower level full bath and bedroom area. Upstairs, the extra-large master bedroom offers room for a king bed, an additional seating area or home office setup, and ample closet space. Stylish features throughout include rubbed bronze hardware on the kitchen cabinets, a subway back-splash, and reclaimed wood shelves. Updated light fixtures make an impact, with pendant lights in the kitchen, an oversized pendant in the rear dining area, and sleek flush mounts in the master bedroom. The closets have been upgraded with custom storage and the washer and dryer are new in 2017. When asked what they would miss most about their beloved home the owners said, "The master bedroom! The flow of the home - it really worked for us. We loved hosting friends and family from out of town and it was always so easy with the guest bedroom and full bath separately in the lower level. The front porch and our neighbors!" Only blocks away from the vibrant H Street Corridor, this home is walkable to bars, restaurants, groceries, coffee and much more. The Rosedale Neighborhood Library and Recreation Center are two blocks away and offer a large playground and pool. A few short blocks to the east is access to the Kingman and Heritage Island trail system where you can hike or jog through blissful nature only minutes from this home. For commuters, this home is a 15-minute walk to the Stadium-Armory Metro Station or a 5-minute walk to the bus and Streetcar stops at H Street and Benning Rd. Bike routes into the city abound - connect to C Street or East Capitol to head into the city using clearly marked bike lanes. If you get around by car, catch 295 North or South from Benning Rd and easily hook into the nearby highway system.
