About this home
Welcome to 500 Dahlia Street NW, which blends timeless charm and modern convenience in this stunning Victorian home with quality craftsmanship throughout. Situated on a private corner lot adorned with beautiful mature trees, this iconic gem is just two blocks from the Takoma Metro and a short walk from local coffee shops, restaurants, Whole Foods, parks, and more.
The spacious wrap-around front porch is set amidst lush surroundings in the fenced-in front yard, creating a serene retreat. The interior features custom moldings and trim, hardwood floors, soaring high ceilings, and designer finishes throughout all four levels. A handsome and welcoming foyer leads to the formal living room and the sun-drenched dining room with a fireplace. The state-of-the-art kitchen is highlighted by a center island with a breakfast bar, a second sink, and stainless steel appliances, including a Viking range and a new refrigerator with craft icemaker. A windowed breakfast nook allows panoramic views of the back yard, which includes a tiered back deck, flowering shrubbery and plantings, and stone pathways– an oasis for outdoor entertaining and relaxation and ample space for play and exploration.
A grand staircase leads to the second floor, which hosts three bedrooms plus a den/fourth bedroom with beautiful hardwood floors and sizable windows with treetop views. Other highlights include a screened-in balcony off one of the bedrooms, and a full hall bathroom with a tub/shower. Stairs lead to the third floor, which features the spacious primary suite with Palladian windows, a private sitting room, a custom walk-in closet, and a full bathroom with a luxurious clawfoot soaking tub.
The recently finished basement boasts a recreation room/home theater, bedroom, full bath, laundry and storage. Other improvements include a new geothermal HVAC system allowing for maximum comfort - two units with one gas furnace backup in the lower unit, as well as solar panels, EV charger, and a heat pump water heater. Additionally, there is a charming detached garage with new wall storage, as well as off-street driveway parking.
Don’t miss the opportunity to make this truly one-of-a-kind house your own!...
