A truly magical blend of classical appointments and modern convenience, 2401 Tunlaw is an absolute standout in so many ways. Boasting approximately 2600 sqft, it's one of only a few detached houses in this prized location. This four bedroom, two and one half bath Glover Park home is sure to impress, even before taking your first steps through the front door?
Undeniable curb appeal gives way to the manicured front yard and gardens, slate walk, and welcoming (and super functional!) front porch. The entry foyer sets an elegant tone, as do the spacious living and dining rooms. A gleaming and stylishly redone kitchen will inspire your inner chef and boasts great counter and cabinet space, plus an incredibly handy pantry. The first floor family room is absolutely flooded with gorgeous light and offers direct access to the peaceful and very private, fully fenced rear patio and gardens. A discreet powder room is neatly tucked in a quiet corner by the staircase. Each of these spaces is perfectly punctuated by stylish architectural appointments that include tall ceilings, plentiful windows, original hardwoods, case moldings, and a decorative fireplace, just to name a few.
The second floor is delightful, too, and boasts three sizable bedrooms, an upper level washer and dryer, plus absolutely stellar closet space throughout. A brand new and expanded, marble clad full bathroom provides a spa-like oasis at the end of a busy day. Each of these rooms gets wonderful light and each offers perfect privacy.
The lower level consists of a spacious studio apartment (bedroom 4) with a large living area, full bathroom, fully equipped kitchen, office area, its own laundry and terrific storage. This space is fully connected to the upper floors, yet has its own entry and is separately heated and cooled.
The exterior of the home boasts a number of wonderful spots to entertain al fresco, or to simply lounge with a cup of coffee or glass of wine. The private driveway makes parking a breeze, though many tempting hot spots from Rocklands Barbecue to Dumplings & Beyond to Whole Foods are so close you will likely leave the car parked at home. Access to Rock Creek Park is just a block or so away while terrific bus service can easily take you to points well beyond.
So stylish, so updated, such a wonderful place to call home. A rare offering, indeed.
