1217 Taylor St NE

Luxury meets location in this stunningly renovated 4BD/3BA family home that puts you just footsteps from everything beautiful Brookland has to offer. The re-stained front porch, covered for everyday relaxation, is just the beginning. The main level greets you with an open floor plan that stretches from a charming living room (with wood-burning fireplace and built-in bookshelves) through an eye-opening chef-style kitchen (with massive custom island, upgraded light fixtures, and stainless-steel appliances) to the back of the home, where you’ll find the perfect home office (with custom cabinetry) and a remodeled powder room. Upstairs is a spacious guest bedroom, as well as a second bedroom drenched in light thanks to plenty of windows (with custom shutters that run throughout the home). The star of the upper level, however, is the primary bedroom, transformed into a glamorous suite with a grand walk-in, sky-lit closet and a private bathroom with dual showers and heated mirrors. The basement is also a masterclass in form and function, with an electric fireplace, a full bathroom, generous closet space, a private back entrance, and a full bedroom that could easily double as your home gym or den. Out back is a private backyard, an incredibly spacious (and fenced-in) side yard, and off-street parking for up to two cars. The home’s exterior also features updated gutters, professional landscaping, and irrigation. In minutes, walk to the Red Line Metro station, restaurants and amenities along 12th Street NE, the shops at Monroe Street Market and the Arts Walk, and more. •
