Looking for a cookie cutter antidote in an ideally located best of both world's oasis? Welcome to 1608 Belmont St. NW Unit C, a recently updated 2-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom townhouse style condo set over 2 levels at the coveted Beekman Place, one of only a few gated communities within the city. At the entrance, there is a private walled brick patio/garden and upon entry you will find a spacious and efficient floor plan with original parquet flooring and plenty of natural light.
On the entry level, the thoughtfully separated guest and master bedrooms have large windows and updated bathrooms (2023) along with ample closet/storage space, a benefit that extends through the hallway. The fashion-proof en suite primary bathroom redesign will at the same time endure over time and appeal to the most discerning among us. And finally, the staircase that connects both levels has an all-new carpet runner that perfectly befits the space while adding a feeling of luxury and warmth.
On the lower level (elevated from the street/not a basement), the masterfully updated and immaculate
chef's kitchen offers a full suite of stainless-steel energy efficient appliances (2017), extra thick granite countertops with rounded corners and beveled edges, and ample storage space with all wood cabinets/under cabinet lighting, plus terracotta flooring. Across the hall there is a laundry/storage closet with an XL front loading Speed Queen washer and dryer (2019), along with an adjacent updated powder room.
The adjoining spacious living/dining area is ideal for entertaining, and has a wood burning fireplace and built-in shelving on both sides. Through the French double-doors (replaced in 2018) you will find a walk-out south-facing private patio. Electric grills (no gas) are allowed.
This 1200 SF unit comes with 2 parking spaces (unassigned), as well as the many advantages of being a part of Beekman Place, a friendly residential community with highly-regarded onsite management. Benefits include 24 /7 onsite security, bike-storage rooms, compost/recycle pick-up days, designated dog areas and community events. Please see the documents section for more information.
Sited near the exalted twelve-acre Meridian Hill Park on 16th Street NW, the condominium offers convenient access to popular restaurants and live music venues in nearby Adams Morgan, and of course, the famed U street corridor. The flagship 60K SF Vida Fitness location, the city's foremost luxury health and fitness emporium with its much beloved outdoor penthouse pool is minutes away at 17th and U. Pick up your groceries (or have them delivered) at the Harris Teeter supermarket which is just one block north, and slightly further afield there is the prestigious DuPont Circle which offers many dining and retail options. Home warranty included. TRANSPORTATION: Closest metro is U Street (Green and Yellow Lines) at 13th PLUS the commuter buses (S2 and S4) on 16th St NW.
