About the Listing DAMC1 - 69291
The Kenyon Street Colonial- A beautifully renovated 1915 single-family colonial in Columbia Heights, on the Park View border, 749 Kenyon Street NW offers something increasingly rare in the city: a whole single family house with its own massive outdoor footprint, private garaged carport and endless opportunities to add your on style and flare. Its original character has been cared for rather than polished away, while thoughtful updates that take the home back to its historic personality instead of cookie cutter luxury Condominium design choices. This home is move-in ready inside and out.The approach begins beneath a mature tree canopy as the shade for a freshly white and black painted exterior. An oak-and-glass front door, set below its original transom, opens to warm hardwood floors and freshly painted rooms. The front parlor has the composed scale of an early twentieth-century house, and the main level unfolds naturally from conversation to dining, cooking and the garden beyond.At the center is a kitchen made for real use and easy company. Butcher-block work surfaces, a farmhouse sink, stainless-steel appliances, open cabinetry and farmhouse lighting bring texture and utility. Copper cookware remains displayed along the original wood-and-tile wall, while a separate butcher-block prep and seating area adds practical storage and a place to gather. The adjoining pocket bar—with ample space for your wine and bourbon collection—adds to the kitchen footprint and creates indoor outdoor living with the back patio and garden. A first-floor powder room keeps the living level complete. You will also find all new light fixtures inside and out, many with their own dimmer controls to dial in optimum relaxation and mood.The new Outward-opening French doors draw the house into the garden and double the amount of natural light on the first floor. The massive tiled living area was expertly concreted, graded to the street and tilted with outdoor Victorian style tiles. The patterned patio holds to an outdoor cooking area, dining area and seating area then leads to roses, planted beds and a bocce court under a leafy canopy. Together, they form a sequence of private outdoor rooms for morning coffee, dinner and long evenings outside. Cooking inside, or outside, or both come with a dreamy view that you will love to share with friends, neighbors, and family. Upstairs are two bedrooms, a renovated primary en-suite bath and a second full bath. The new graphite LG stackable washer and dryer were moved upstairs, removing laundry from the kitchen and giving useful space back to the main level. A beautiful built in library on the second floor gives you the perfect office or retreat after a long day. A brand new furnace and central air-conditioning system include a transferable warranty and service contracts, providing efficient comfort and peace of mind all year long. The location places the restaurants and independent businesses of the 11th Street corridor and lower Georgia ave Corridor close at hand, together with neighborhood groceries, the protected bike lane and Columbia Heights Metro. The address belongs to Columbia Heights while sitting on the Park View border, connecting the house to both neighborhoods without sacrificing the residential character of Kenyon Street.Historic in form, beautifully renovated and distinctly personal, 749 Kenyon Street NW is a house whose best qualities reveal themselves in sequence: the transom, the parlor, the working kitchen, the pocket bar, library, the French doors and the garden beyond.
