MAJOR PRICE REDUCTION! The Battery is a private community of just 15 single-family homes nestled in a cul de sac, on nearly five acres of land in the lush green Kent neighborhood. You feel like you are one with nature, and yet you're so close to services and restaurants! A short walk away are two national parks, and a short drive is Georgetown, National Airport and more! More information about this wonderful community can be found on www.BatteryPlaceDC.com. This contemporary home is graciously designed, with spacious main level living and dining spaces. The large, light kitchen opens to the dining room, and beyond to the living room and study. Both the living and dining rooms open to a large, private deck.
