About This Home
Welcome to 1407 Columbia St NW, a beautiful historic retreat nestled in the heart of Washington, DC’s popular Shaw neighborhood. Originally built in 1885, this charming two bedroom that can easily be converted to a three bedroom residence offers a blend of modern convenience and timeless style.?
You enter the home from a brick sidewalk to a separate entry foyer that opens to a beautiful living room with decorative fireplace, floor-to-ceiling built-ins, hardwood floors, and additional space for a dining table and chairs. At the back of the home is the renovated kitchen with gas cooking, dishwasher, refrigerator with ice maker, and custom cabinetry. Beyond the kitchen is a private bricked back terrace with planter boxes and ample space for a table and chairs to enjoy your morning coffee or evening rest. The first floor also provides a large coat closet, as well as additional storage under the stairs and a utility closet.
As you ascend the stairs to the second floor you are flooded with natural light from the oversized family room with hardwood floors. This space could easily be converted to a third bedroom, if so desired. A second fully renovated, windowed bathroom features a custom shower with beautiful tile work. The second bedroom with custom built-ins and storage offers space for a queen size bed and/or the perfect work-from-home office.
The entire top floor of the home is devoted exclusively to the primary suite. The bright, large bedroom at the front of the house has two walk-in closets plus an additional wardrobe. The primary bathroom features a double sink and large walk-in shower. A separate relaxation room offers a large, soaking tub as well as the home’s washer and dryer. ?
In addition to the renovated kitchen, bathrooms, and custom built-ins throughout, updates include a new roof in 2018 and a new air conditioning compressor in 2014.
Columbia Street NW is one of DC’s fabled tree-lined, one-way, one block long streets which provides ample street parking.
This prime location can’t be beat. You are so close to some of DC’s best offerings yet on a secluded quiet side street. The metro is only a couple of blocks away. Michelin star restaurants are close by as are grocery stores (Giant, Whole Foods, Safeway) and bars. Easy access to dining, shopping and nightlight in Logan Circle, Shaw, downtown, and the entire city.?
This home is a rare find and an excellent condo alternative (no ongoing dues!), combining urban convenience with thoughtful design. Don't miss the opportunity to make 1407 Columbia St NW your own personal haven in the city.
