About this home
**BACK ON THE MARKET. BUYERS GOT COLD FEET AND IT'S NOT DUE TO INSPECTION ISSUES, BECAUSE NO INSPECTION WAS DONE.**
Perched on a hill with scenic neighborhood views, welcome to 5124 Chowan Avenue — a beautifully refreshed 4-bedroom, 3 full bath ranch-style home on a spacious, quiet lot in sought-after Lincolnia Park.
Step inside to the bright and inviting main living area featuring newly refinished hardwood floors, recessed lighting, large windows that flood the space with natural light, and a cozy wood-burning stove. The refreshed kitchen offers painted cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and luxury vinyl flooring. A separate pantry and prep area provide exceptional storage and workspace for everyday living or entertaining.
The main level includes three spacious bedrooms, with two connected by a convenient Jack-and-Jill bath.
The fully finished lower level expands the living space with a fourth bedroom featuring an en-suite bath and a private exterior entrance — ideal for an in-law suite, au pair space, or private guest retreat. A large family room with a wood-burning fireplace and brand-new carpeting creates a warm and comfortable setting for relaxing or entertaining. This level also includes two separate storage areas, a generously sized laundry room with new luxury vinyl flooring and fresh paint, and easy access to the garage.
Outside, the private backyard is surrounded by greenery and offers plenty of space for outdoor dining and grilling. The expansive driveway provides parking for at least four vehicles.
Enjoy a peaceful, residential setting while remaining just minutes from shopping, restaurants, Lincolnia Park Recreation Center, Thomas Edison High School of Technology, Washington, DC, and major commuter routes. This home offers the perfect balance of quiet living and everyday convenience.
