Listing details for 4216 Everett St, Kensington, MD 20895 : When a homeowner with amazing artistic vision meets a classic house with “good bones”, the result is a property unlike any other. Welcome to 4216 Everett Street, where a perfect blend of original character has been masterfully paired with every amenity of the modern day. From the moment you enter the home, the attention to detail is apparent at every turn. Refinished hardwood flooring with integrated vents, Pella Architectural Series windows, refurbished original door hardware, and custom, designer-sourced lighting offer a glimpse of the finishes that preserve the architectural integrity while adding every element for modern living. A beautiful wrap-around flagstone porch with a stained beadboard ceiling and arched entry extend a warm welcome. Step into the front room/library, which features brass sconces on the beautiful custom built-ins, a beamed ceiling, and a fireplace with an updated mantel. There are two bedrooms (one currently used as a home office) and one and a half renovated baths on the main level. Each bedroom in this home possesses a personality of its own. The first floor full bath was completely gutted and expanded, with all new surfaces, Newport Brass fixtures and vintage Italian lighting to create a stunning space. The kitchen offers a classic twist on the coastal style that is so popular today, with Shaker cabinets, open shelving, and a door to the beautiful patio. A long window bench covered in custom fabric offers an inviting perch for eating, reading or simply enjoying views of the backyard and patio, which are seamlessly integrated from the rear of the first floor with its abundant windows to allow the light from the southern facing rear to beam in. Adjoining the kitchen area is an incredible great room with crown molding, oversized window casings and French doors opening to the patio. Enhanced with marble floors, recessed lighting, two sets of LG washers and dryers, and a custom limestone vanity, the renovated mudroom and powder room exemplify the exquisite details that have been added to every inch of this home. Upstairs there are 3 more bedrooms and two full baths. Perfect for any household, the original primary bedroom is expansive, with big dormer windows, built-out double closets, finished knee walls and new lighting. The timeless black-and-white tiled bath in the hall features an open-corner tub and gorgeous views of the rear yard. Step into the owner’s suite, where you find built-in bookcases, a finished closet in the sitting room/nursery and a stunning bedroom area. Armoire-style custom cabinets and thick molding applied to the vaulted ceiling add refined style to this elegant space. The owners truly thought of everything, even adding a recessed tv niche and dovetailed drawers. The owner’s bath is equally incredible, with a stone-surfaced double vanity with open storage, a large corner shower, a windowed alcove and two large walk-in closets. The lower level features a utility room with a newer hot water heater and HVAC system, upgraded electric panels, an updated powder room and space for a sixth bedroom.

Handsome full-size stairs lead to the garage’s upper level, which is perfect for a kids’ playhouse, an artist’s loft or lots of accessible and usable storage….the sky is the limit.
