Welcome to 3643 Alton Place NW, a timeless brick Colonial nestled in the heart of North Cleveland Park. Spanning nearly 2,000 square feet across three thoughtfully designed levels, this residence blends classic architectural charm with comfortable, everyday living in one of NW D.C.'s most desirable—and highly walkable—neighborhoods.
Ideally located just half a mile from both the Tenleytown and Van Ness Metro stations, the home offers effortless access to Connecticut Avenue, Wisconsin Avenue, and River Road, making commuting a breeze. Enjoy a truly walkable lifestyle with neighborhood favorites just moments away, including Wegmans, Whole Foods, Cactus Cantina, Politics & Prose, and Bread Furst, along with the local farmers market, popular playgrounds, and the scenic trails of Rock Creek Park. Known for its welcoming community atmosphere and highly regarded public and private schools, North Cleveland Park continues to be a sought-after destination for D.C. buyers.
Inside, the main level features beautiful hardwood floors and a gracious living room filled with natural light from oversized windows, anchored by a cozy fireplace. The layout flows seamlessly into a bright dining room and well-appointed kitchen, creating an ideal setting for both everyday living and entertaining. A screened-in porch extends the living space outdoors, overlooking the backyard, while a convenient half bath completes the main level.
Upstairs, three comfortable bedrooms and a full bath provide a peaceful retreat from the main living areas. Each bedroom is filled with natural light and generous proportions, while one offers direct access to a private roof deck—an inviting perch to unwind, enjoy afternoon sun, or overlook the home's lush backyard oasis.
The finished lower level adds exceptional flexibility and function, offering a spacious family room ideal for movie nights or casual gatherings, a full bathroom, dedicated laundry area, and an additional office or guest space—perfect for remote work, visiting guests, or extended living needs.
Outside, mature landscaping, a private patio perfect for grilling, and a storage shed enhance the home's charm and functionality.
A rare opportunity to own a classic Colonial in one of NW D.C.'s most coveted, walkable neighborhoods.
