The Seventh St Modern blends timeless DC character with thoughtful upgrades across three finished levels, offering both style and substance. The sun-filled main level showcases exposed brick, generous windows, and an open living space designed for everyday living and entertaining. The living room flows seamlessly into the fully updated kitchen, highlighted by a waterfall quartz island, stainless steel appliances, abundant counter space, and a layout that opens to a spacious dining area. A convenient main-level half bath adds everyday functionality.
Just off the dining area, the rear deck was fully rebuilt in 2020 and further enhanced with a pergola added in 2022, with professional staining and sealing completed most recently in 2024.
Upstairs, the primary suite stands out with exposed brick, vaulted ceilings, a professionally installed custom Elfa closet system added in 2020, and an updated en-suite bath. Two additional generously sized bedrooms and a dedicated laundry area complete the upper level. The finished lower level offers a large recreation room, fourth bedroom, and full bathroom, providing flexible space for guests, work-from-home needs, or additional living areas. A rare bonus for the neighborhood, the home also includes substantial storage beneath the front porch, a highly sought-after feature in Petworth.
Major improvements reflect proactive ownership and long-term care, including roof maintenance completed in 2021 with slate tile replacement, updated fascia, and new rear guttering, as well as exterior front-of-home enhancements in 2024 with brick repointing, updated iron fencing, and refreshed railings. An HVAC humidifier was added in 2024, and owned solar panels were installed in 2024 and are fully paid off, with the remaining warranty transferring to the new owner. Lead pipes were replaced in 2021 as part of a DC-funded citywide initiative.
Secured off-street parking for two cars is located at the rear of the home, adding everyday convenience.
The location offers easy access to Downtown DC and Silver Spring, along with major commuter routes including Georgia Avenue NW, 16th Street NW, I-495, and US-29. Enjoy close proximity to Brightwood Park, Rock Creek Park trails, and neighborhood favorites such as Jackie Lee’s, La Coop Coffee, and dining throughout Petworth and Takoma.
