Welcome to 2020 First Street NW, a beautifully updated and well maintained 1907 5 bedroom 2 bath row house in the heart of the sought-after Bloomingdale community. A quick walk to the Shaw Metro (Green and soon to be Yellow line) and all of U Street - just a block from 6 restaurants to include Red Hen! Enjoy one of the most scenic, tree-lined blocks in all of Washington DC. The restored home provides original charm while the 9~ ceilings will provide energy and delight. The whole house is freshly painted with top of the line Sherman Williams paint.
There are 5 bedrooms to include 2 very large masters featuring tons of natural light and views of all of Bloomingdale - one with an on-suite updated bathroom.
The front garden is planted with amazing perennials for year round color - early phlox blooms first thing in spring all the way to the end of fall!
The backyard outdoor entertaining space is the best in the neighborhood - with two levels of decks off the back, a large slate patio, a marble chip lined set of pavers, and a grass-patch.
Renter pays gas, electric, internet, and water. Water is shared with English Basement below - upstairs unit pays 2/3 of total. Owner pays ADT security/fire system fees.
