Description

Brimming with natural light and elegance, and steeped in history, this Federal beauty stands alone! A rare offering in the heart of the Capitol Hill Historic District: a wide 1870 detached Federal with generous proportions, soaring 10' ceilings and newly refinished heart-pine flooring throughout. In the same family since, 1962, this gracious home blends historic character with exceptional potential---just steps to the U. S. Capitol, Congress, the Supreme Court, the Library of Congress and two Metro...Brimming with natural light and elegance, and steeped in history, this Federal beauty stands alone! A rare offering in the heart of the Capitol Hill Historic District: a wide 1870 detached Federal with generous proportions, soaring 10' ceilings and newly refinished heart-pine flooring throughout. In the same family since, 1962, this gracious home blends historic character with exceptional potential---just steps to the U. S. Capitol, Congress, the Supreme Court, the Library of Congress and two Metro stations, not to mention Michelin-starred restaurants. Enjoy one of the Hill's most tree-lined settings. The main level features expansive formal rooms, including a formal dining room with coffered ceiling, generous living spaces and a bright eat-in kitchen---dated but fully functional and ready for reimagining. Recently painted and installed recessed lighting add a crisp, updated touch. Upstairs offers three very large bedrooms, plus a smaller fourth bedroom used for office, nursery, or guest space. One and one-half bathrooms are dated but quite serviceable. Additional features include central air-conditioning and a dirt cellar with 6' ceilings for storage and systems access. A standout BONUS is a 25' x 15' detached workshop/storage building---in need of full restoration, but with a footprint that suggests exciting possibilities for a future carriage house, studio or guest suite (buyer to verify). The deep garden and patio stretch behind the home, offering privacy, shade and the potential for lush landscaping and outdoor entertaining. This is a property with soul, scale, and endless opportunity---an extraordinary canvas in one of the Hill's most cherished locations.
