FOR SALE IN WARD 7 | 2216 30th Street, SE - $1,295,000
Yesterday another high dollar listing (this time in Congress Heights) started a very interesting conversation on The Advoc8te’s twitter feed that involved everything from the quality of renovations to building generational wealth to the type of buyer’s purchasing the higher priced listings. The Advoc8te is interested to see if the conversation continues.
As an aside, The Advoc8te thinks the below is probably one of the best renovations she’s seen for a long time and is just further proof why Hillcrest is such an in-demand neighborhood. The homes are large, lush, and with a lot of character.
“Posh. Palatial. This completely new, custom built renovation, six-bedroom, four-and-a-half bathroom, 4,000 square foot modern farmhouse home â presented by Harner Development LLC in partnership with Honduran master builder Jose Ismael Gomez and architect Mark Scoffield - is the epitome of polish and perfection. Walk in to a light-filled, wide open main level grounded with gold topaz acacia hardwood floors. Imagine endless summer nights spent on a covered porch accessed by a private sliding door just off the entryway. Front-and-center, a floating staircase serves as the first floor’s main focal point. Space abounds, with a private office offset from the living, dining and kitchen area. The custom kitchen features white cabinets, granite countertops, a pot filler faucet, stainless steel KitchenAid appliances and a fresh-air make-up vent system. A wall of dual, floor-to-ceiling sliding doors frames the huge grass backyard and deck. Upstairs, you’ll find four large bedrooms, with the massive master bedroom serving as a centerpiece. The master includes a large, walk-in closet, sliding door to a private deck, and en suite bathroom with dual vanity, large soaking tub and glass-enclosed shower. The second level hosts another master bedroom with its own private bathroom, and two additional bedrooms with a shared full bathroom with dual vanities and bathtub. Two of the bedrooms have sliding doors opening to a shared deck. A brand new, Samsung washer and dryer/laundry room rounds out the space. The walkout lower level boasts a separate entrance, eight-foot-plus high ceilings, two additional bedrooms, and another full bathroom with glass shower. The home’s energy-efficient extras are nearly too much to list - dual-zone HVAC units, smart thermostats, high-efficiency hot water heater, white TPO roof, and sump pump with battery backup. Close to Starbucks, Safeway, Lidl, & Pizza, Tropical Smoothie Cafe, Busboys and Poets, Anacostia Park, Pennsylvania Avenue, SW Water front, Interstates 295 and 395, public transportation, and much more!”
