Featured on the cover of This Old House Magazine, this exceptional 1925 Craftsman in the heart of AU Park is a rare example of a home that honors its past while living beautifully in the present. Thoughtfully renovated with a designer's eye, it showcases original chestnut millwork, classic Craftsman detailing, and preserved period character—seamlessly paired with modern updates that enhance light, flow, and everyday livability. A short video is included with the listing, offering a series of visual highlights—be sure to click the video link to view. Spanning four levels, the home offers both elegance and flexibility. The main level features a gracious living room anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, a formal dining room, and an expanded eat-in kitchen with a bright breakfast nook. A rear sunroom overlooking the garden, open to the breakfast area, adds an inviting, light-filled space, along with a convenient powder room. Upstairs, the second level includes a well-appointed primary suite with a walk-in closet and en-suite bath with radiant heated floors, an additional bedroom and hall bath, and a den or home office, along with a full-size washer/dryer. The top floor offers two additional bedrooms and a full bath—ideal for family or guests seeking privacy. The fully finished lower level provides exceptional versatility, complete with a private entrance, kitchenette, full bath, heated floors throughout, and its own washer/dryer—perfect as an in-law suite, au pair quarters, or potential income-producing space. A spacious recreation room adds even more flexibility. Natural light fills the rear of the home, where the sunroom—converted from a screened porch and thoughtfully cantilevered—opens to a private patio. Throughout, smart architectural changes—from the relocated front door to widened openings with French doors—enhance flow and functionality. Ample storage is found on every level. Ideally located in AU Park, the home offers easy access to the Red Line, Rock Creek Park, and the shops and dining along Wisconsin and Connecticut Avenues, all within a charming, tree-lined neighborhood. The beloved Millie’s is just a 5-minute walk away. A home with this level of character, craftsmanship, and thoughtful updating is truly rare.
