Welcome to this lovely Capitol Hill row home where classic elegance meets modern sensibility. For buyers who value a deep yard with mature plantings and thoughtful hardscaping, this is the home you have been waiting for! Unlike most Hill homes where you must choose between a yard or parking, this home provides a serene garden with ample room for entertaining, as well as two parking spaces. Even the alley behind the home is charming with a freshly bricked road and the delightful Duvall Court alley homes. Inside, the home is bathed in natural light with a smartly designed galley kitchen with gas cooking, an eat-in breakfast nook overlooking the yard, separate living and dining areas, and a convenient powder room. The second floor offers three generously sized bedrooms, a skylight, and a full bathroom. The lower level has an open plan with front and rear entrances, a full bathroom, wet bar, laundry area, utility room and a bonus crawl space accessible through the bathroom providing ample storage. The lower level would make a great office area, rec room, guest suite or possible ADU. The wall by the wet bar is wired for an electric range as well as a full-size refrigerator if a more robust kitchenette is desired. Exposed brick is found in multiple locations throughout the home's interior, as are warmly colored hardwood floors. The roof is less than a year old and is where the air conditioning unit is located in order to save valuable floor space inside the home. Heat is provided by a well-maintained boiler/radiator system. Restaurants, cafes, bars, grocery stores, retail options and two Metro stations are found only a few short blocks away. This home is a unique find and shows beautifully in person. Please consider attending one of the open houses!
