Rarely available condo in the Historic Watkins building. Constructed in 1908, there is wonderful history. This three-story, red-brick Victorian apartment building was built by William Watkins for his six daughters, as there are six large apartments in it. The architect, A. S. Baird constructed a flat-roofed rectangle, offset by two octagonal five-windowed bays, which stand like fortress towers at the front corners of the building, although they are not elevated higher than the roofline. A three-tiered porch made of concrete blocks fills the entire front space between the bays. Top floor unit with charming hallways with stone balconies. Only two units on the floor.

High ceilings with large windows with original oak trim and refinished heartland Pine floors. Wood burning fireplace with decorative mantle. Large rooms, separate dining room, and fully renovated kitchen and bath. One of the highlights is the large, covered balcony with firepit and lots of room for seating and entertaining. Outdoor parking space included. Steps to the Takoma Park metro stop and all shopping and restaurants. This condo is for those that appreciate historic details and history and a special floor plan with charm. Very unique and special.
