73 W Street NW: A Home With a Past AND Present
Buying
In this day and age, it can be hard to find a home that seamlessly fuses the past with the present. Many homes are authentic yet outdated or modern yet sterile. Few, however, manage to effectively combine the best of both worlds…that is, until now. Whether you’re a buyer sick of this perpetual struggle or a real estate enthusiast looking for your daily fix, we’re proud to present a newly listed home that, steeped in history AND rooted in the now, is designed to impress. So, without further ado, welcome to 73 W Street NW.
Curb Appeal: If you’ve ever strolled past the storied Boxer Girl mural site, then chances are, you’ve already stopped to take in the home’s stately Victorian exterior, known as a neighborhood landmark in its own right. And set on a picturesque, tree-lined street in sought-after Bloomingdale, this home is sure to spark some real estate envy in passersby who happen to catch a glimpse. Talk about curb appeal!
A look inside: Where historic charm and modern details collide, 73 W Street NW is a 3-story, 5-bed, and 2-bath townhome that’s been lovingly restored and reimagined throughout the years — without compromising on character.
Unique period features: From the original stained glass windows and doors to the crown molding and the striking wood staircase that evokes a bygone era, great care has been taken to preserve the home’s historical roots.
Modernizations: Fully updated with both penny round tile (downstairs) and encaustic tile (upstairs), the home’s bathrooms showcase the thought and creativity that went into the home’s renovation. The gourmet chef’s kitchen makes a similar statement, outfitted with brand new appliances and elegant touches like the Carrara marble, light fixtures, intricate tin ceiling, and subway tile backsplash.
Unexpected Appeal: Did someone say rental opportunity? In addition to its other notable perks, the home also comes with its own accessory apartment that’s currently rented for $1,750 a month.
Alfresco Inpso: Can’t you just picture yourself entertaining friends from the comfort of your new outdoor oasis? 2-car parking is also included.
It’s All In The Location: Here’s the thing: there’s no place like Bloomingdale, DC. Home to a dynamic range of experiences, Bloomingdale places you at the center of a vibrant enclave where there’s truly something for everyone to enjoy. Sample the award-winning restaurants at your doorstep, catch some rays at one of the neighborhood’s many parks, and savor the neighborly feel of the community around you.
