Property description
Welcome to 829 Oglethorpe, a well-loved Brightwood home being offered for the first time in many decades. The care and pride of long-term ownership can be felt throughout, from the classic brick exterior and mature landscaping to the inviting front walkway that leads you inside. This home offers a traditional layout with 3 full bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, 2 half bathrooms, and a full basement that provides valuable additional space for storage, hobbies, or future finishing options. Many of the interior finishes, including the kitchen, baths, and select details throughout, are vintage or original. This creates an ideal opportunity for the next owner to update, personalize, or fully renovate according to their vision. Generously sized rooms, hardwood floors, and large windows bring in natural light. Outside, the home features an expansive front yard, established plantings, and a deep rear area with terrace-style access that is perfect for gardening, outdoor living, or future enhancements. The property is conveniently located near neighborhood parks, local transit, and within the boundary for LaSalle Backus Elementary (DCPS). The school is scheduled for a future modernization. Buyers are encouraged to verify school assignments and modernization timelines directly with DCPS.
