About This Home

As of April 2020

Easy to view! Click on the virtual tour for a 3D walkthrough! Welcome home to this vibrant Victorian in the heart of Capitol Hill. Location - unbeatable! Eastern Market, hip eats and so much more - all at your doorstep. This beauty is designed to throw a huge party. The light-filled, wide-open main level features an inviting formal living room, traditional parlor, and generously proportioned dining room ready to host a massive feast for many. Note the original details accented by natural chestnut and oak mouldings, pristine hardwood floors, exquisite mantels, period pocket doors, and multiple cozy gas fireplaces. No true showpiece would be complete without a sprawling gourmet eat-in kitchen certain to please any chef with tons of storage and exquisite finishes. The upper two levels provide multiple spaces to spread out and relax as day turns to night. Take either the formal staircase or the rear staircase to access these beautiful levels. A mind-boggling four oversized bedrooms occupy the upper portion of this residence complete with two master suites. Note the custom built-in, historic details, and copious storage - Wow! The fully finished basement suite holds endless opportunities. Flex family space? In-law-suite? Airbnb? With great ceiling height and tons of storage - you decide. And for the wine connoisseur, an 800-bottle conditioned wine room is ready and waiting for you to stock. Outside - entertain & enjoy the large private hardscaped patio, perfect for entertaining, and a rarely available 2-car garage with plenty of storage. Ideally located just steps from Eastern Market, Trader Joe's, the Metro, and Barracks Row dining, this is a rare opportunity to own this remarkable home with ideal entertaining spaces.
