HAPPY HOUR, 5/29, 4-6 PM. OPEN SAT/SUN, 1-4 PM. Nestled in charming Glen Echo Heights amid mature landscaping, this delightful Cape Cod exudes warmth and character. Built with double-row masonry in 1948, this home seamlessly blends classic architecture with modern comforts, making it a cozy and stylish retreat. An inviting layout features a family room, separate dining room and spacious living room with bay windows, enhanced by gleaming hardwood floors, recessed lights and ample natural sunlight. A main-floor bedroom is now used as a den with elegant floor-to-ceiling wooden cabinetry. The bright, compact kitchen, updated with quartz counters and stainless appliances, also has a handy back door to the patio, grill area and lush garden - perfect for summer entertaining. Two dormered bedrooms and one bath upstairs feature multiple closets and custom under-eave drawers and cabinets (one in the primary bedroom cleverly houses the television), plus overhead bedside lighting, and a handy "book nook" built into the wall above the bed.

The lower level features a rec room with a fireplace and full-height wooden cabinetry, plus a large legal bedroom, perfect for guests, an art studio or home office. The deep laundry and storage area (with exterior egress) runs the length of the house, plus a bonus room with even more storage space. Newer Pella windows throughout have decorative mullions that can be removed for a more contemporary look. Composite roof was replaced in 2022. They just don't make 'em like this anymore!
