Some homes just feel different, and this penthouse is one of them. Tucked inside a charming two-unit conversion, this sprawling 2,300+ sq. ft. retreat delivers the space of a single-family home with the energy of city living. High-end craftsmanship is on full display—natural hardwood floors, thoughtful personal design, and an open layout flooded with natural light. The chef’s kitchen is built for both everyday ease and effortless entertaining, with premium appliances, sleek quartz counters, and a massive walk-in pantry. The primary suite is a true escape, complete with a spa-inspired bath and an oversized walk-in closet. And yes, there’s even a dedicated laundry room—because details matter. When it comes to space? You won’t find more room to breathe in this price point—this home has the kind of square footage most row homes can’t even touch. And then there’s the three private outdoor spaces—a rarity in the city. A screened-in porch off the main living area offers the perfect bug-free summer hangout, while a private balcony gives you fresh air on demand. But the real showstopper? The 360-degree rooftop terrace—a front-row seat to D.C.’s skyline and an absolute must-see. Parking? You’ve got it. And when it’s time to explore, you’re steps from local favorites like The Roost, an all-in-one culinary hub home to Caruso’s Grocery (some of the best Italian in the city), Trusty’s for a laid-back bar vibe, and Duffy’s—the go-to for wings and a pint. The Pretzel Bakery and Sala Thai are nearby, and Congressional Cemetery—a stunning 35-acre green space and off-leash dog park—is just a short walk away. Plus, with the RFK Stadium site poised for redevelopment, this location’s only getting better. A home with this level of space, quality, and outdoor access in Capitol Hill? Rare.
