About This Home

As of December 2024

Prepare to fall in love with this restored 4-level Victorian rowhouse that beautifully marries classic charm with a modern flare. This home boasts 4 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms with almost 3k sq ft. of living space. Enter through the charming vestibule and lounge in the living room showcasing original fixtures, 8' baseboards, and exposed brick, all enhanced by natural light streaming through skylights.

The main level - showing one of the 5 wood-burning fireplaces - opens up into a chef's dream with a gourmet kitchen, featuring Thermador appliances, including a commercial-grade stove/double oven, pot filler and a 48' refrigerator. The separate dining room opens to a private rear deck, perfect for entertaining.

The entire 2nd level is the primary suite. HUGE primary bedroom, a spacious walk-in custom closet and a stunning bathroom with a claw-foot tub, double vanity and glass shower. The third level houses two additional bedrooms, each with its own full bath.

The private English basement, with separate front and rear entrance, has been recently renovated and offers versatile living options for an au-pair, family or to be used as rental income. Located just steps from Capitol Hill, Eastern Market, and vibrant nightlife, this home is a true urban sanctuary.
