Rosedale Cottage - A Historic And Romantic Flirt!

By
Real Estate Agent with RLAH@properties AB95346

It's at 3460 Ordway Street NW.  Ordway is a street in Cleveland Park named after a guy named Edward Ord, who was a Major General in the Civil War and served under General Grant. 

Rosedale Cottage is one of those houses that is just a shameless flirt!  You walk in the door, and your heart skips a few beats!  If Rosedale was a woman, I guess she'd be a cougar, because she's of a "certain age", old but nobody is quite sure how old.  She's had a lot of work done, however, and she can totally hold her own with the new construction down the street!

Here are some photos taken by Peirs Lamb, who is my office's Art Director.  And he's a gifted photographer - and the reason I wound up moving to EVers and Company.  He puts together amazing marketing materials for our listings, including this one.

The property is being offered for $1,999,000.  It will be open on Saturday and Sunday between 1 and 4 in the afternoon. 

Ordway is between Connecticut and Wisconsin Avenues

Wow this is one beautiful property.  You are right your heart does skip a beat looking at a home that truely looks like a home.  This is a place with character and charm not a cookie cutter mega home.  Wish I could make it to your open house to see it in person.

The master bedroom is the room that really grabs me. I love a big bedroom with a fireplace! Truly charming.
