About This Home
As of March 2025Step into this beautiful row home on Ridge Place, where classic charm meets modern comforts. As you enter, you’re greeted by warm wood floors and a cozy and inviting layout. With its sleek stainless steel appliances and breakfast bar, the renovated kitchen flows effortlessly into the living spaces, giving you a perfect spot to entertain or enjoy a quiet evening. Natural light pours in, especially from the back of the home, where the open space of Anacostia High School’s football field offers an expansive, unblocked view—perfect for those who love a bright and airy feel or to take in some Friday night lights from the comfort of home.
The back of the first floor provides a flexible area that could serve as a home office, cozy sitting room, or even a creative space, while the screened front porch is a welcoming spot to relax and enjoy the outdoors without the hassle of bugs. Upstairs, two spacious bedrooms await, each offering comfort and plenty of light. The back bedroom includes a bonus space that could easily be transformed into an additional sitting area or even a walk-in closet, offering flexibility as your needs evolve. The newly remodeled bathroom feels straight out of a magazine, with the paint barely dry, combining modern luxury with timeless style.
Downstairs, the basement offers even more living space and a utility room for added convenience. Major updates and repairs have been taken care of, including a full roof replacement, a new boiler installed 9 years ago, and the front of the house being repointed. The home is outfitted with a ductless mini-split system for efficient heating and cooling, as well as a radiant heat system to take the edge off the coldest nights, ensuring year-round comfort. The owned solar panels produce more energy than the home uses, with the extra revenue covering the gas bill, meaning essentially no energy costs.
Just outside the Anacostia Historic Zone, this home allows you to enjoy the neighborhood’s rich traditional beauty while still having the freedom to update as you please. Located near downtown Anacostia, you’re minutes from local favorites like Busboys and Poets and well-positioned for easy access to Capitol Hill and Barracks Row via the 11th Street Bridge. Plus, with the exciting development of the 11th Street Bridge Park, the area’s connection to the rest of DC is only growing.
