1254 VAN BUREN STREET NW

WASHINGTON, DC 20012

Welcome to 1254 Van Buren Street NW, a beautifully updated brick Colonial in the heart of Brightwood. This inviting three-bedroom, two-bath home blends timeless character with thoughtful modern upgrades, offering the perfect balance of comfort and style. Step into a sunlit living room with a wood-burning fireplace, original built-ins, and rich hardwood floors that extend throughout the main level. A bright den provides flexible space for a home office, playroom, or cozy reading nook. The kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a Bosch dishwasher added in 2022. The finished lower level includes a full bath, guest space, laundry room, and generous storage. A beautifully maintained home with a new roof (2023), upsized return air vent to accommodate a new, higher-efficiency AC system (2021), and a relined fireplace with a new cap (2021). The deck was fully refurbished this summer (2025). Outside, enjoy a fully fenced backyard with a private deck and off-street parking. Recent updates also include a new washer and dryer (2020). The fireplace was enhanced with fresh brickwork, and the deck was upgraded with new footings, replaced planks, a new trellis, and fresh stain—just completed in summer 2025. Ideally located just blocks from the new Whole Foods at The Parks, neighborhood farmers market, tennis courts, and Takoma Metro—with Rock Creek Park and its Van Buren trail entrance nearby—this home offers classic charm, modern ease, and a vibrant Brightwood lifestyle.
