Property Description

Historic Foggy Bottom Federal Townhouse | 3BR | 2.5BA | Parking for up to 3 Cars Built in 1873, this charming federal townhouse has historic character with modern convenience in the heart of Foggy Bottom. Offering approximately 1,662 square feet, this row house has high-ceilings, hardwood floors throughout, two fireplaces (one gas and one wood burning), radiator steam-heat (one of the best and most comfortable types of heat), central A/C, and timeless architectural details. Ohh and not to mention the huge front windows that overlook a lush green lawn, Japanese maple tree and small boulders. The living and dining room areas are large with soaring ceiling heights, giving you that open feeling and both flow nicely into a galley kitchen with stainless steel appliances, laundry area, and access to a 1/2 bath for your guests to use when entertaining- no more climbing steps to use the upper bathrooms. A rare secured up to three-car parking area with remote-controlled gate completes the outdoor space. *Note- the all brick parking pad in the back, is ideal for one large car, but can fit two smaller or three with the gate temporarily opened. You could also widen the space to fit all cars comfortably. The back also has an amazing garden area/patio where you can easily set up a table, chairs, tiki lights and a grill for those cool Summer BBQ's gatherings or just to relax and set up a Zen-garden of your own. When you go back inside, the upstairs includes a nice size primary suite with en-suite bath, two additional bedrooms, a full hallway bath, skylight, and nice hardwood floors. Ideally located just moments from George Washington University, George Washington University Hospital, the World Bank, International Monetary Fund, the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, and the waterfront, with Georgetown just around the corner. 947 25th Street NW boasts a Walk Score of 96 and a bike score of 93, making it a Walker and Biker's Paradise with daily errands easily accomplished without a car. The property is also approximately a five-minute walk to the Washington Metro Blue Line, Washington Metro Orange Line, and Washington Metro Silver Line. Nearby parks include Washington Circle and the Benito Juarez Memorial.
