Property Description

A mile from the U.S. Capitol, life gets surprisingly quiet. Set along a tree-lined street in Capitol Hill, this three-bedroom home pairs the character you hope to find in a classic DC rowhome with the spaces that make everyday life work. Natural light, original hardwood floors, exposed brick, and a wood-burning fireplace give the main level warmth and personality, while the comfortable connection between the living and dining spaces makes the home equally suited to a quiet night in or a house full of friends. At the rear of the home, the updated kitchen offers generous workspace, stainless steel appliances, abundant cabinetry, and a window overlooking the backyard. Upstairs, original wood floors continue through all three bedrooms, including a bright primary bedroom with three south-facing windows and a walk-in closet. A spacious hall bath completes the upper level. Outside is where the house really separates itself. The landscaped backyard feels remarkably removed from the city, surrounded by mature trees and established gardens, with a large patio offering plenty of room for outdoor dining, entertaining, or an afternoon that quietly turns into an evening. And then there’s the location. The National Mall, Smithsonian museums, monuments, and the heart of downtown are all within easy reach, while closer to home, neighborhood restaurants, shops, parks, and everyday conveniences make it just as easy to stay local. It’s a rare combination: the character of a classic DC home, a backyard worth spending time in, a quiet tree-lined block, and a location that puts some of Washington’s most iconic places practically in your neighborhood.
