About This Home

As of March 2021

Coveted townhouse style 2 bedrooms 2.5 baths on 2 levels at the Car Barn. These condos live larger than many rowhomes on Capitol Hill. The main floor offers an expansive open layout with a spacious living room overlooking leafy A ST, opens to a sizable dining room that can easily seat 6, offers a perfectly placed powder room, and features a lovely renovated kitchen with southern exposure. The bright eat-in kitchen was recently updated with new sea-glass cabinets, appliances, flooring, and quartz countertops, and some details you don't usually find like an instant hot water dispenser! The upper-level landing is brightly lit with a hall skylight and the two large bedrooms upstairs each have their own en-suite updated bathrooms and plentiful closet space. The primary bedroom also features a dressing area as well as a rarely available tree-top balcony! With almost 1400 SF on two levels, wood buring fireplace, a private entrance elevated off of A Street, secured off-street parking, located 1 block to Lincoln Park, zoned for Maury Elementary, and walking distance to Eastern Market and metro, this home offers great value.
