Property Description
Capitol Hill Beauty on one of the neighborhood's best-loved blocks!
This expansive, 2,472 square foot home offers space to entertain, work, play, and relax. The integrity of the original floorplan has been kept intact, allowing flexibility and comfort in its intelligently designed spaces.
The front entry boasts original artisan tile, with a double door. A bright and comfortable eastern-facing sitting room leads off the front hallway, and the house flows naturally from a generous stair hall through the dining room to the kitchen.
The dining room has handsome built in bookshelves with an oversized window looking out to the rear of the property. A half bath sits around the corner. The sunny kitchen features plenty of storage and a peninsula for informal dining or cooking.
Upstairs, a primary bedroom boasts ample closet space and a beautifully designed, new bathroom. Two more bedrooms and another full bath are accessed through the deep, skylit hallway with clever transoms bringing even more light throughout the home.
The front of the basement has a very large family room, with bookshelves and a small kitchen, this is the perfect spot for guests and snacks while watching movies and sports. The basement also offers a bedroom, another full bath, and a recently updated laundry room with more storage.
The rear of the home features comfortable and peaceful double porches for morning coffee, relaxing with a book, and entertaining in the shade of the gorgeous Northern Red Oak in the garden. The porches were thoughtfully designed including recessed lighting and ceiling fans. Follow the path to a one story garage with space for one car controlled by remote. There is another big and dry storage area under the porches.
