About This Home

As of August 2025

This exquisite penthouse condominium residence, overlooking Seward Square in historic Capitol Hill, is a rare offering that blends timeless elegance with modern sensibilities. Occupying the entire top floor of a stately 1880s Victorian boutique building with just six residences, this condominium home boasts two generous bedrooms and two full bathrooms, just two blocks to Eastern Market and Barracks Row, and inbounds for Brent Elementary school.

Wrapped in windows on three sides, the sunlit open-concept living space showcases sweeping views and abundant natural light. The chef-inspired eat-in kitchen features a striking granite peninsula, Bosch and Samsung appliances, and a 57-bottle GE Monogram wine refrigerator. Enjoy your morning beverage in the bay-window breakfast nook with serene southern views, or impress your guests with your culinary creativity in the spacious dining area, anchored by stately columns and a sculptural glass pendant chandelier.

The inviting living room features a stone-clad gas fireplace flanked by custom-built-in shelving and charming bay window seating, perfect for curling up with a book or unwinding after a long day. The ensuite primary bedroom offers a large custom walk-in closet, another bay window, and a beautifully appointed four-piece bath, while the second bedroom, also with a custom walk-in closet, is served by a sparkling full hall bath.

Additional features include oak hardwood floors, soaring ceilings with crown molding, three bay windows, custom window treatments, in-unit washer and dryer, and exceptional storage throughout. All of this just steps from the US Capitol Complex, Eastern Market, Barracks Row, and the Pennsylvania Avenue commercial corridor—where historic charm meets modern convenience—with acclaimed dining, boutique shopping, and transit options practically at your doorstep. Eastern Market Metro, commuter routes, and major thoroughfares offer effortless access in, out, and around the District.
