This fabulous 1920s home in the heart of the M Streets has been fully renovated with each detail thoughtfully considered & every major system updated! Previously a duplex, the owners expertly converted to a custom single family home with modern amenities while maintaining historic features—original doors, hardwoods, built-ins, crown molding & dual fireplaces with Batchelder tile hearths—to name a few! Sitting on an oversized landscaped lot with covered porch, patio, balcony & custom built workshop-shed combo with electric & AC. Multiple private entrances on the side of the home to guest room & office space. Back patio is decked out with a gas fireplace, BBQ grill & drop-down TV, PLUS an outdoor shower, top-of-the-line cold plunge & space for pickleball court. Mudroom off the covered patio opens to dining area & gourmet kitchen that was taken down to the studs & reimagined to maximize its function & form: walk-in pantry, high-end appliances, dual range, wine fridge, double ovens & large island with so much storage! Front living area features one of two original fireplaces. Cedar closet in downstairs hall leading to office, guest room & full bath. Cozy den upstairs with second fireplace & great flex space! Covered balcony is a DREAM, accessible from the den & an upstairs bedroom. Full bath in hall for secondary bedrooms + big laundry room. Luxurious primary boasts remote controlled recess lighting in addition to great natural light. Dual vanities, double glass shower, Hollywood bath & custom walk-in closet with hidden safe room. Other updates include interior drywall & paint redone (APR 2025). Nearly all electrical moved underground. Refreshed carport parking with electric gate. Structural reinforcement & foundation work done with lifetime warranty (2022). Wooden privacy fence stained (MAR 2025), two HVACs (2018-19) & new hot water heater. This forever home has been carefully curated to have it all in a highly desirable M Streets location.
