Tucked into a quiet neighborhood in North Kensington, this freshly painted three-level townhome has every option for gracious living and entertaining. Front-to-back sight lines invite the outdoors in, and dark hardwood floors and plantation shutters create a polished backdrop for modern or traditional furnishings and art. The main level features a lovely formal dining room which opens to the galley kitchen. Finished with white cabinets and stainless-steel appliances, the kitchen leads to an expansive family room enhanced by custom built-ins, tall windows and a set of French doors to the patio. The wall of built-ins provides the perfect landing for a homework/home office center, displaying your favorite collectibles and/or setting up a bar when entertaining. A powder room completes the first floor. Ideal for family or visitors, there are 3 bedrooms upstairs. Appointed with new lighting and neutral window treatments, the bedrooms are all well-proportioned and have ample closet space. Two bedrooms share a renovated bath. The owners suite has great natural light and closet space, and a barn door slides to reveal a dressing area and renovated full bath. The lower level features a large recreation/media room and a playroom lined with shelving. These rooms are great for enjoying movie nights, watching and playing games, exercise equipment or even as a private home office space. The laundry is housed in the lower level as well. The main level opens to the private fenced yard/patio area; perfect for your summer barbeques, gardening and outdoor play. As part of the Palisades Association of homeowners, the common areas of this neighborhood are meticulously maintained. Community activities in the past have included neighborhood picnics, multi-resident yard sales and a December holiday gathering. Located close to the trails that line Beach Drive and Rock Creek, the park-like setting of this home belies its easy access to Connecticut Avenue, downtown Rockville and Kensington, and the DC line. From its classic brick faade to its light-filled living space, this home is form and function at its very best!
