About This Home
As of December 2024This charming Federal-style row house boasts a classic brick façade, perfectly blending historic character with city living. Featuring 2 bedrooms and 1.5 baths, this cozy home is located on a unique, quiet street in the heart of Shaw. The home’s distinctive architectural details include the original brick work with decorative window lintels matching the neighboring homes. Perfect Condo alternative with no HOA/Condo Fee.
Inside, the home spans two levels with practical living spaces and laundry on the upper floor, exposed brick wall, wood floors, recessed lighting, reclaimed vintage solid wood doors with original hardware and new Marvin windows throughout. The main level features an open floor plan leading to a charming back yard through a hurricane resistant Marvin sliding French door allowing plenty of natural light. An expansion was added to this home during the complete renovations in 2013 creating a more spacious interior yet maintaining the same cozy character. The eclectic kitchen is a combination of unique vintage collectible items, adding to the historic character and a bonus wine cooler.
The primary bedroom opens to a 13' x 10' balcony accessed through a Marvin sliding glass door, with access to a roof deck via a stylish spiral staircase. The second bedroom boasts custom made shelves and built-ins. Bespoke roller window shades and ceiling fans in every room.
The private fenced backyard provides a peaceful retreat in the city. A garden with a 13' X 10' Trex deck, for alfresco dinners, and gatherings, raised planting beds, a mature elm tree, an espaliered fig tree, a storage shed and a rain barrel water collection system. There is a rear entrance through the fence onto the patio which can be easily converted into a parking space with plenty of room left for the existing garden and deck.
This gem is located just a few blocks from the Shaw Metro and surrounded by vibrant neighborhoods like U Street and Bloomingdale, this home puts you right in the middle of all the action, while offering a tranquil escape.
With its unbeatable location and charming potential, this home is ideal for those looking to enjoy the best of DC urban living!
