Description
Beautiful Capitol Hill end unit built in 1890 and renovated with today's modern amenities. Located just steps from Stanton Park, Union Station, and all the best of Capitol Hill! The front of this home is beautifully landscaped with a custom flagstone walk, gorgeous hydrangeas, and a dogwood tree. As you step into the vestibule, take off your shoes and enter the warm and inviting main floor with original and refinished oak floors and custom built-ins that flank a cozy living room fireplace. The kitchen is large, open, and light filled with south facing windows along the side of the home. A peninsula with ample seating and counter space separates the kitchen and large dining room, creating an amazing space for anything from a casual breakfast to dinner parties. A half bathroom is tucked away at the rear of the home. Just off the kitchen is a mudroom that leads to a private brick patio PLUS off-street parking!
Upstairs you will find a fantastic owner's suite with a second fireplace and skylit bathroom with a large shower. Two more generous bedrooms and an updated hall bath are down the beautifully wallpapered hallway. The basement and mudroom also provide abundant extra storage space.
You will love this tree-lined, friendly, and neighborhood-y block with lots of great parks and playgrounds within walking distance. Enjoy Stanton Park, Lincoln Park, Swampoodle (which includes a popular dog park), as well as both the Capitol Hill Montessori and Ludlow Taylor playgrounds, which are open on weekends. The field at Stuart Hobson is one block away and also open on the weekends for neighborhood use. The neighborhood is great for an active lifestyle with easy access to a scenic run (or walk) on the mall or the MBT, bike lanes everywhere, and a number of well-attended fitness studios on H Street (including Yoga District). Within two blocks is a high-end corner store (Union Kitchen), an independent coffee shop (Ebenezer's), multiple restaurants (Buffalo & Bergen, Cafe Fili, Junction Bistro, Bistro Cacao, Cafe Berlin, and the soon-to-open Pupatella), and you are within walking distance to Whole Foods and the rest of Capitol Hill. Steps to Union Station but far away from the traffic. Make this quintessential Hill home yours!
