This charming townhome in the heart of Old Town’s southeast quadrant, shaded by the flowering cherry blossom out front, features over 2000 square feet of finished space. The three-level brick home in the Yates Gardens neighborhood has the charm of yesteryear with the space and amenities to suit today’s lifestyle. The sunny main level has a welcoming foyer, a convenient but discreetly located half bath, and a spacious living and dining room with hardwood floors and a wall of windows overlooking the serene, lush garden. The kitchen features maple cabinetry, a gas range, and ample storage. Upstairs, you’ll find the hardwood floors continue through the home’s three bedrooms, and two full bathrooms are also located on this level. The home’s attic provides additional storage. The home’s finished lower level features a large, secondary living space with wood parquet floors, recessed lights, a decorative fireplace, and built-in bookshelves. This level also features a full bathroom, a large laundry/storage area, and a door providing exterior access to the front of the home/street. Sliding doors off the rear of the lower level open onto the large flagstone patio, with views and access to the expansive yard and playhouse/garden shed at the rear of the garden. The home's central Old Town location is a commuter's dream: close to King Street Metro, and easy access to I-95/495, Route 1, and the GW Parkway. Shops, restaurants, Whole Foods, Balducci's, Harris Teeter, Trader Joe's, coffee shops, bike and walking trails, the Potomac riverfront, and farmers' markets are also conveniently located nearby. One small dog is welcome on a case-by-case basis with a $1000 deposit. Applications are submitted online, and there is a $50 nonrefundable application fee per adult. The first full month's rent, security deposit, and pet deposit (if applicable) are due at lease signing. This property is available for rent for 24-36 months beginning July 23.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
