Set behind a quiet bed of peonies, a classic covered front porch welcomes you to 1615 45th Street, a mid-century bungalow offering scale, flexibility, and one of the Palisades’ most convenient locations. Inside, the main living space opens with vaulted ceilings, a dramatic brick-wall fireplace, and newly refinished hardwood floors. The room has volume and light—exactly what buyers look for in a mid-century design. The layout flows easily from the living and dining areas into an updated kitchen with stainless-steel appliances and main-level laundry. Three bedrooms and a full bath sit privately down the hall, creating a straightforward and efficient main-level plan. The lower level adds another dimension to the home. With its own kitchenette, laundry, two additional bedrooms, a full bath and direct access to the rear patio, the space works equally well as a guest suite, extended family quarters, or a flexible recreation level. For buyers thinking longer term, the property has permitted architectural plans for a new luxury residence, offering a clear path to building new on this well-positioned lot. The location is quintessential Palisades: moments from the recently renovated Hardy Park and neighborhood favorite Jetties, with quick access to Georgetown and downtown via Canal and Reservoir Roads. Move in and enjoy the house as it stands, or build something entirely new. Opportunities with this level of flexibility in the Palisades are increasingly rare.
