Property description
Fantastic opportunity to restore and reimagine a c.1890 bay-front rowhouse in the heart of Capitol Hill. Just blocks to Eastern Market, a Metro stop, Lincoln Park, and some of DC’s best dining and neighborhood amenities. Set behind a charming iron-fenced front garden, this historic Hill home features high ceilings, original hardwood floors, skylights, and a classic layout. The main level includes a vestibule, spacious living room with fireplace and built-ins, a roomy kitchen, and a separate dining room with exposed brick overlooking a large private rear yard. Upstairs, you’ll find a generous front bedroom, a sizable rear bedroom, and a versatile middle room perfect for an office, den, or third bedroom. The unfinished basement offers excellent storage, laundry, and utility space. This property offers the ideal canvas for a full-scale renovation with room to add additional bathrooms. It will require major ceiling repairs and updates throughout. A great opportunity for investors, developers, or end-users looking to customize a home in one of DC’s most sought-after historic neighborhoods. Sold strictly As-Is.
