Property Description
Inside, the main level offers a gracious living room and dining room with abundant natural light and stunning original architectural details such as coffered ceilings, pocket doors, beautiful high wainscotting and original wood trim. The spacious eat-in-kitchen leads to a deck and private back patio.
Upstairs, the second floor offers four bedrooms and a full bath. The finished attic adds another bedroom, full bath, and flexible den space, along with substantial unfinished storage. The walk-out lower level offers yet another complete living area with a family room, full bath, laundry, and storage, with an exit to the rear patio.
Outside, the rear deck, patio and side driveway offer parking and substantial outdoor space, with a charming tree in front.
The location is exceptional. Just a block and a half from the Petworth metro and Safeway, and steps further to local favorites like Timber Pizza on Upshur or Midlands Beer Garden on Georgia Avenue. You'll find an eclectic mix of independent restaurants, cafés, bars, shops, fitness studios, and everyday conveniences within a few blocks. Wonderful parks and green spaces—including the grounds surrounding President Lincoln's Cottage—are also nearby.
518 Quincy is comfortably livable today, while offering the next owner an exciting opportunity to update and refine the home according to their own vision. For buyers drawn to historic architecture, generous space, and the possibility of creating something distinctly their own, this is a rare Petworth opportunity.
Buyer incentive: $500 credit at settlement when using KVS Title as the settlement agent.
