About this home.
This stunning, globally-inspired home is full of lavish designer features. Nested in the heart of Brightwood on a gorgeous tree-lined block, its modern character meets classic charm. With no carpet in sight, you can enjoy the low maintenance of engineered hardwood and tile floors.
Just beyond the stately facade steeped in curb appeal, you'll step up and onto the airy front porch and into the sun-dappled living room with electric fireplace and recessed lighting and modern wallpaper all the way from Romania. Straight ahead, the sophisticated kitchen and dining room space offer the perfect excuse to entertain.
The gorgeous Chef's kitchen will take your breath away while serving up a large gas range, stainless appliances, a large center island that doubles as a breakfast bar, trendy open shelving and fantastic tile backsplash. Out back you'll find the deck and terrace oasis, plus off-street parking!
Upstairs you'll find the grand primary suite with vaulted ceilings, extravagant en-suite bath and ample storage in the spacious custom closets. The second bedroom upstairs also features its own private bath.
Two levels down, the home's fully finished recreational, third bedroom and full bath await you as does the full-size washer and dryer. You'll also find plenty of extra storage and more recessed lighting.
Set just three blocks from rt29 where you'll find many notable attractions, restaurants and more, this home offers a coveted location that is hard to beat and great for commuters! Venture out to award winning restaurants, and surround yourself with the cultural mecca found in neighboring Takoma Park, Sixteenth Street Heights, Petworth, Columbia Heights and Silver Spring. Just a few minutes from Safeway, Walmart and Rock Creek Park!
All of DC's destinations for both work and play are easily accessible. A home where an appreciation of architecture and access coincide, welcome to 717 Rittenhouse Street!

About Homebox
Let’s be honest; property managers have a bad rep. We’re known for being unresponsive, using dated tech, and above all, for not caring about our tenants.
We’re changing that.
From convenient self-touring to DocuSign® leases to, Venmo® payments, 24/7 maintenance, and a virtual concierge to help you with the little things, like finding trustworthy cleaners or picking up a package if you’re out of town. This is what renting should look like in 2021.
We started this company because we’re as dedicated to the places we call home as we’re passionate about helping people find their way there. We’re modernizing property management, and we’re doing it by putting people first.
Welcome to a new way home. 🏡
