This classic 1937 International Style duplex home is back on the market! This Greenbelt Homes cooperative unit has been meticulously maintained, with several original features of the home intact, dating back to its New Deal era origins. Original elements include the deep porcelain farm sink, several original steel kitchen cabinets, in perfect working order, with Deco styled drawer pulls. In contrast to these classic elements, all of the windows, doors and baseboard heaters are newly replaced, making this a snugly insulated home. Two generously sized bedrooms and one full bath are upstairs. Buyers interested in Asian architectural details and furnishings will be interested in the genuine Tatami Room that was custom-built for the living room of this home. The tatami mats, imported from Japan, are arranged in a traditional pattern on the floor. The redwood platform framing the mats was built on site. The shoji screens have panels made of a permanent translucent fiberglass material. The project was coordinated by Oriental Living, an Asian interior decorating company of Bethesda. This duplex building sits at an angle at the corner of Ridge and Gardenway, superbly convenient to Roosevelt Center, and backing to a private pocket park.This is a co-op, see ghi.coop for information about the community.
