Classic AU Park

American University Park. Walking distance to a red line metro station, grocery stores, a drug store, electronic stores, hardware stores, drycleaners, a heath club, multiple restaurants, cafes, coffee shops, bars and the list goes on and on.

4420 44th ST NW , just off the beaten path, sits on a large corner lot at 44th ST & Alton PL yet is only 4 blocks to Wisconsin AVE.

The red brick home has an attached 1 car garage with an enclosed sun porch and large custom-built 16'x16' wood deck (4/06). A freshly painted white picket fence encases the yard, along with an invisible fence to keep your dog out of harms way. Massive amounts of bamboo, shrubs and hedges were removed by the current owners and replaced with flower beds filled with perennials and annuals.

Inside, you will find a warm and inviting space that has been updated top to bottom by the current owners.  House wide interior improvements include:
New double paned windows (9/04)
All new switches, plugs and vent covers (7/04)
Fresh paint, including trim (7/04)
New light fixtures throughout (7/04)
New smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detector (7/04)

Walk up the new flagstone front walk (10/06) and you are welcomed inside by a new storm/screen door. The living room has hardwood floors and a wood burning fireplace with a new granite surround and mantle (12/06). A new built-in bookshelf (12/05) is a great place for displaying pictures.

 The sunroom has new ceramic tile flooring (4/05).

The kitchen was completely overhauled in early 2005. A wall and door were removed to open the kitchen up to the dining area. Custom cherry cabinets were installed. Granite counter tops and backsplash grace the surface area. All new stainless steel appliances and a new ceramic tile floor complete the renovation.

Upstairs you will find another top to bottom renovation (11/05) of the guest bathroom. Everything old was removed and replaced with a new tub, new marble tile in the bath and on the floor, a new  toilet, a new Kohler sink, a new Pottery Barn medicine cabinet and all new lighting and plumbing fixtures.

All 3 bedrooms boast new roman shades on the windows. The 2nd bedroom has newly refinished wood floors while the en-suite master bathroom has a sink and medicine cabinet.

The basement provides ample storage space and even has a small room perfect for a custom wine cellar! There is exterior access to the basement.
