Two-Story Cape Cod in Barcroft

Less than a mile from the Clarendon Metro, this three-bedroom bungalow retains much of its 1920s charm with original chestnut panel doors, vintage hardware, and hardwood floors. A front sunroom provides a good place to entertain guests and people watch, and the newly renovated kitchen includes modern conveniences like a double oven and extra wide refrigerator.
