Property Description
Investors, builders, and vision‑chasers—this is the blank canvas you've been waiting for. Nestled on a gently sloping quarter‑acre in leafy Westmoreland Park, this classic brick rambler is surrounded by mature azaleas, towering hardwoods, and a row of new construction homes that have already proven the upside: fresh builds here are commanding around $2.5 million. The existing three‑bedroom layout is perfectly livable—sunlight floods through a picture window into the main living room, a center‑chimney brick fireplace anchors gatherings year‑round, and original oak floors hide beneath the current carpet just begging to shine again. A vintage kitchen with solid maple cabinets and gas cooking still gets the job done, but it's easy to imagine quartz counters, a statement island, and a wall of glass doors flowing to a reimagined backyard oasis.
Downstairs, a full‑height walk‑out lower level boasts a second fireplace, wall‑to‑wall built‑ins, and space for a legal bedroom, home theater, or rentable in‑law suite. Two full baths keep the home functional while you sketch spa‑level replacements, and the level rear lawn offers plenty of room for a pool, screened porch, or an entirely new footprint that could grow to 6,000 square feet without breaking a sweat. Every construction crew will appreciate the flat terrain and mature landscaping that shields the site from street view—instant curb appeal now, staging area later.
Location does the heavy lifting. Highly ranked public schools score a 9 out of 10 on GreatSchools, commuter routes and Metro access are only minutes away, and neighborhood parks, coffee shops, and farmers markets create the kind of community vibe that keeps values resilient through every market cycle. Summer block parties, kids pedaling to Tuckahoe Park, and neighbors who actually know your name are everyday perks money can't fabricate. Whether you envision a ground‑up modern farmhouse, a top‑level pop‑up with luxury finishes, or a smart cosmetic flip that lands comfortably in the low‑$1 million range, the math works in your favor and the demand is already here.
Morning jogs wind past blooming dogwoods, evenings glow around the living‑room hearth, and the whisper of Metro rails in the distance means Downtown D.C. is never far away—yet peace and privacy rule the day. Bring your architect, your contractor, or simply your imagination, and turn this solid brick shell into the next headline sale in Westmoreland Park. Opportunities with this much upside rarely hit the open market, so stake your claim now and watch your vision—and equity—grow.
