About This Home

As of September 2024

Fantastic opportunity to own a beautiful row home on Capitol Hill while earning rental income. Situated moments from the Potomac Avenue Metro Station, the home features two separately metered units, either or both of which can be rented for income purposes.

Heading upstairs, you will find a nice size "owner's suite" that features a gracious sized living area,with brand new carpet (hardwood under) and fireplace, a large dining room for entertaining, an updated kitchen and powder room. The upper level of this unit has two large bedrooms, one with an ensuite bath, and a full hall bath for the other.

The lower, traditionally considered income unit, has a charming open gourmet kitchen, nice size living area with fireplace, large bedroom and upgraded bath and the entire unit has luxury vinyl plank flooring.

The home features a 1 car parking driveway and the exterior rear features a private patio with a new 6 foot privacy fence and lots of entertaining space.

With its ideal Capitol Hill location, the home is minutes to shopping, restaurants, grocery, retail, metro and various commuter routes.

As an investment opportunity, each unit offers the potential for excellent returns. The new owner could choose to rent out both units for a steady income or live in the upstairs unit while using the lower unit as an Airbnb for even higher returns. Additional details about the expected rental income are available
