About this property

NEW LISTING! OPEN HOUSE SAT 2-4 & SUN 2-4 Looking for a haven in the City, but think you?ll have to make sacrifices? This home will defy those expectations. Welcome to 1509 Van Buren Street NW. This stunning, stately, sun-drenched semi-detached, expanded Tudor home in Brightwood DC delivers a respite from the congestion of Downtown while delivering expansive living spaces in a sought-after location. Ideally located in a lovely, verdant neighborhood with quick access to commuting options, nature, recreation, schools, and dining and shopping venues, uptown living does not mean having to give up any city conveniences. Rather, you?ll have access to even more amenities. Rock Creek Park is located one block to the West with its countless trails, golf course, tennis, horse stables, and picnic areas. Just one block to the East is the Fort Stevens Recreation Center with playgrounds, tennis courts and much more. Just two blocks to the North offers the bustling new development at the old Walter Reed Campus, which will be home to a variety of new retail (including a Whole Foods) and is already home to the DC International Charter School. Commuting options abound, with easy access to Rock Creek Parkway, main thoroughfares like 16th, 14th & 13th Streets, Military Road, Georgia Avenue, and the Beltway. Takoma Park Metro is just over 1 mile away, or a quick direct bus ride will deliver you to the Silver Spring Metro or will take you all the way Downtown, so you can easily leave your car at home. 1509 Van Buren Street NW was fully renovated in 2008 and well maintained since. This home offers 4 elegant finished levels, with 4 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, a finished basement, and a detached 2-car garage. With this much space, there?s room for work, school, exercise, and just relaxing at home. Entering the home, you will be greeted by a classically beautiful Tudor style fa?ade, pillared portico above the front door, and a slate front patio. The main level is drenched in sunlight from the huge windows on 3 sides of the home and offers an open-plan layout with a large formal living room, an open kitchen with stainless steel appliances and granite counters, an adjacent dining space, and an informal seating area. French doors lead to the large deck, for perfect indoor/outdoor living and entertaining. Wood floors, substantial crown molding, a decorative fireplace, recessed lighting, a large pantry, a large coat closet, and a convenient powder room round out the main level. The first upper level features an extra-large primary suite with attached bath, large closet and huge windows with exposure on three sides. The very spacious second and third bedrooms and a full hall bath are also featured on this level. The top level offers a large open space with skylight, an attached full bath, storage, and an adjoining room that will capture your imagination with its charming roof lines. Either space can serve as a fourth bedroom, but the entire level offers exceptional flexibility for a variety of uses. Wood floors continue throughout these levels also. The finished lower level offers a walk out to the back yard, another full bathroom, laundry space and large windows for great natural light. Why not have it all? This home proves you can.
