This Week's Find: A Farmhouse in Brookland: Figure 1

In a new feature debuting today called This Week’s Find, we happen upon a Southern light-filled farmhouse in Brookland. Originally built around 1900, the fully renovated and expanded home now measures out at 1,200 square feet with an open kitchen, spacious family and dining area, a quiet front sitting room, and a chocolate-tinted powder room. There are three good-sized bedrooms upstairs, huge closets, wide hallways, and two bright subway-tiled bathrooms. The renovation was done by DC-based Great Space Development, which added a white picket fence in the backyard to give the property that Norman Rockwell flavor. There is also a double parking pad and fully restored shed in back. The Brookland-CUA Metro on the Red Line is about a 20-minute walk. More details and photos below.
