OPEN SAT & SUN OCT 7&8 1-3! The perfect mix of original details and modern must-haves, this undeniably appealing two bedroom, one and one half bath Capitol Hill classic delivers in droves! Renovated throughout with an excellent eye for detail, the home boasts an impressive array of updates and modifications that will surely impress.
The welcoming facade gives way to a classic vestibule entry and a delightful living room complete with custom built-in book cases and cabinetry, designer lighting fixtures, and a delightful wood-burning fireplace. It’s such an ideal spot to truly relax with a great book or to stream videos, all while curled up by the crackling fire. The spacious dining room also offers beautiful custom cabinets, a decorative fireplace, access to the powder room, and provides an elegant atmosphere for hosting guests or stylish dining à deux. Pocket doors allow the space to be separated from the adjacent, expertly designed and redone kitchen. This culinary treasure affords an abundance of wood cabinetry and honed granite counters, open shelving, ingenious pantry and storage closets, dishwasher drawers and a convection gas range complete with custom vent hood. Pella French doors maximize the light and immerse the room in a sunny glow throughout the day. The doors open fully to grant unfettered access to the private rear deck and create the most wonderful “outdoors in” feeling throughout the whole first level. It’s a magical space to cook, garden, entertain, or to simply escape from the bustle of the city.
Two sizable bedrooms with ample storage, oversized windows and custom shelving can be found on the home’s upper level. An exceptional, oversized, marble-clad bathroom can also be found here with its freestanding soaking tub, Toto toilet, and supremely functional laundry and linen closet with mirrored doors.
The partially finished lower level offers an excellent place to work from home while a large storage room provides much-needed space to stash anything from bikes to items from the latest Costco run. Priceless! Also of note are the recently replaced high-efficiency boiler (replaced November 2019), tankless water heater (replaced March 2019), and high-efficiency air conditioning system (replaced in August 2023.)
Mere minutes from the Capitol and its surrounding buildings, right around the corner from highly coveted Garfield and Folger Parks, and super close to METRO (South Capitol is +/- .2 miles from the home) grocery stores, countless restaurants and the delights of Eastern Market, the home truly lives beautifully inside and out!
