4022 Illinois Ave NW

Write your next chapter in this Wardman style rowhome on one of DC’s most idyllic streets. 4022 Illinois Avenue was built in 1916 but renovated and expanded in 2003 with the addition of a primary en suite bath, a first floor half bath, and additional upstairs den. Enjoy the charm of lofty ceilings, transoms, just restored original parquet and hardwood floors, crown molding, skylights, and a gas fireplace. Recessed lights, central AC, double pane, vinyl windows, a finished basement provide modern comforts. Relax in two lovely outdoor spaces: your friendly front porch and your private back deck overlooking the fully fenced in back yard with secure parking! Add the new roof with a 20 yr warranty to the list of perks! You’ll enjoy the ease of loading carts and bikes through your finished walk out basement with tile floor, half bath, and laundry room. The location of the home is tough to beat - just a short stroll to the delicious, highly rated restaurants on Upshur Street and a half mile walk to the Petworth Metro. Illinois Avenue is flanked with beautiful mature trees, bike lanes, and ample sidewalks. You’ll love having picnics in nearby Grant Circle and strolling all the green, flowering spaces tended to by your neighbors in the Petworth Blooms group. Amble around the lovely grounds of President Lincoln's Cottage only 3 blocks away or go hiking in Rock Creek Park with an entrance just 9 blocks down Taylor Street. Best of all, you’ll love the copious block parties and festivals that make Petworth one of the most beloved communities in the District.
