Featured Property of the Week: 615 Oglethorpe Street NW

“BRIGHTWOOD BEAUTY! Welcome to the oversized lot at 615 Oglethorpe St. NW, home to a wonderfully renovated, standalone, red-brick abode that exudes period charm and practical comfort in equal measure. Savor all that curb-appeal quality for a moment before enjoying the welcoming front porch. On a beautiful day, you might stop there, choosing to rock for an hour or two as you take in this pleasant Northwest D.C. neighborhood. Then again, you might be arriving by car, where an attached garage awaits. There’s plenty of parking with an adjacent pad with room for two vehicles. However you arrive, you won’t miss this home’s warm wood floors, or the living room fireplace. As you explore the three levels of this stalwart residence, you’ll surely be impressed by the space — nearly 2,500 square feet! Maybe you’d like a little more? Check out the attic! The renovation left all that extra space alone, but that doesn’t mean you have to. Another bedroom? Lofty lounge area? It’s all up to you! And once you’ve figured out how to configure 615 Oglethorpe to suit you perfectly, it’s time to get out an explore the neighborhood. After all, there’s so much here! When it comes to convenience, you’ve got a Walmart Supercenter just a half-mile away. The Takoma Metro Station is little more than a mile. This patch of Brightwood is also brimming with some of D.C.’s best, like Brightwood Pizza & Bottle and Simple Bar and Grill. If outdoor entertainment is more your speed, Fort Slocum Park is just four blocks away. City convenience plus so much space? Add in the best bits of Brightwood, and 615 Oglethorpe St. NW is the home you’ve been waiting for!”
