Welcome home to this cosy two bedroom, two bath row home in southwest Old Town - loaded with updates. At the end of a gentle curving brick walkway flanked by beds of ivy, perennials and shrubbery, the path opens for space to sit and watch the world go by. Step up and enter through the firetruck red front door. *** Past the entry foyer is a living room with large window and broad opening to the dining room that, in turn, opens to a fully updated kitchen: appliances, cabinets, counters, sink space saving accessories and hot water dispenser, lighting, flooring. *** Upstairs, there are two bedrooms and one beautifully, fully updated bath with glass doors to the tub shower. The hardwoods on the main and upper levels are recently refinished and gleaming. *** The lower level has a rec room with a peek of natural light, full bath with stall shower, under-stairs storage space, and laundry/utility room with still more space for storage. There are walk-up steps to the back yard from the utility room, covered so as to extend the usable patio space and to protect the steps from collecting leaves and debris on windy days. Keep the steps as is to use only as necessary or visualize future renovations incorporating easy egress from the lower level. *** The back fenced patio is just the space for grilling and tranquil relaxation. The gate opens to an alley where garbage and recycling are stored and collected. *** A stones throw from south Old Town favorites Frankies, Southside, Ace Hardware and Balduccis, this home is only just over a mile to the King St metro (with closer bus stops), and just over a half mile to the Potomac for relaxing strolls along the picturesque waterfront. What a combination of Old Town charm and convenience! Please ask for the full list of updates that includes many cool features.
