It's rare to find something so special, private and unknown in the middle of the city's hustle and bustle. Welcome to 1905 9 ½ Street NW, one of only 10 townhouses on this charming and secluded alley block, set across from a developing arts overlay district. Gutted from top to bottom 5 years ago, this open-concept, semi-detached rowhome exudes cool charm. Perfect for entertaining - with a gourmet kitchen, fantastic private roofdeck, additional main level grilling area, and bright, spacious living areas spread over three floors. Thoughtful architectural details and custom built-ins add unique charm, with hardwood floors and 9 foot ceilings throughout. The first floor features a well-appointed kitchen with ample storage, quartz countertops, and high end stainless steel KitchenAid appliances; a separate dining area; a large living room that opens to the outdoor patio and grill area; and a powder room for guests. The second floor boasts 2 full-size guest bedrooms with walls of windows, large custom closets, a full hallway bathroom with two vanities and full size washer and dryer. The third floor features a generous primary bedroom that easily fits a king sized bed, a custom closet and a spacious en-suite bath. The best of all - a separate hallway leads to a private rooftop terrace with distinct areas for dining and lounging under the stars. It's a great perch to see and not be seen - perfect for sunset dinners or your morning coffee - a true urban oasis! Rental parking available in the alley! The location is unbeatable. 98 Walk Score, with the U St metro entrance and bus stop only 1/2 a block away. 1-2 blocks to Nellies, Whole Foods, Compass Coffee, Emmy Squared, the 9:30 Club, and countless boutiques.
