Property Description
The unit offers a beautiful view of Soapstone Valley Park, an offshoot of Rock Creek Park from both living room & bedroom. The northern exposure allows you to see the beautiful sunlight over the woods outside the window without being overheated by the sun shining into the unit. All of the light fixtures are new.
Bedroom The bedroom leaves the sights & sounds of the city outside. Abutting the park leaves natural silence @ night. The horizontal aluminum blinds combined with the dark curtains create an almost pitch black room which creates “good sleepin' weather” every night. You can even calibrate the most comfortable temperature with the new digital thermostat. The huge 160 ft - 3 closet optimizes space with easily adjustable shelving.
Kitchen Everything in the kitchen is new since 2019: Frigidaire refrigerator, Amana dishwasher, Whirlpool gas stove/range, In-sink-erator garbage disposal, & (Chinese) microwave, oak cabinets, quartz countertops, & under cabinet lighting. Shelves add the equivalent of another 2-3 cabinets, or can be removed if you'd like to configure your own space.
Bathroom: The showerhead, toilet, & vanity are all new. Natural oak shelves more than double the storage space in the medicine cabinet.
