Spacious living room & family room w/ new modern floors & fireplaces in each makes them perfect for entertaining.

The basement does have a fireplace so it could be a great living space for the future owner.

The main problem is the ugly stone fireplace and stairs smack dab in the middle separating the dining and kitchen.

We upgraded the fireplace, carpet and paint.

Gourmet kitchen w/granite and SS appliances, Built ins, Rooftop terrace w/double sided fireplace to enjoy Fabulous water views of the Potomac River ,Wet bar wine fridge and dishwasher on Rooftop level with over sized bedroom and full bath.

Brick, fireplace, nice lot. 

Across the property, a guesthouse adds chic elements such as a custom fireplace, marble bar, billiards room and sleeping loft.

Most of the homes in the area have fireplaces, but we’re going with gas to make the drive way useable.

Other factors could be number of corners (the more corners the more expensive to rebuild) or fireplaces or the fact that the house is at the end of a very narrow cul-de-sac and rebuilding would be more difficult.

Mine came back and dismantled the house (fireplace mantle, all the built-in cabinetry etc lined up in the living room like they were going to hold an auction of architectural parts).
