About this home
This home is waiting for YOU! It has gleaming trim of chestnut grain, heart of pine floors on the main floor and upper staircase steps, with oak floors and stunning trim on the second floor. The size is great for three BRs up w/ a balcony overseeing neighbors from Independence Ave., East Capitol, Kentucky & 12th St! A luscious vista with magnolias & crepe myrtle providing seasonal colors.
This Victorian Bay Home is looking for a buyer(s) who loves traditional features, and want to make their own choices on what to update, and what to preserve, and is a great opportunity to join the Capitol Hill Community, a warm, welcoming place for today & tomorrow! This warm Historic Brick Hill Home, in OUTSTANDING Lincoln Park location, has well-maintained original (traditional, beautiful) woodwork, gleaming original wood floors, functional pocket door, Original Center Hall Skylight, and a secnd floor 'Juliet' balcony, perfect for AM coffee, or PM Cocktails! Owner Upgrades include Newer Metal roof, On-demand tankless water heater, large main floor rear deck, brick patio, privacy fence, newer CAC, and built in bookcases. IN ADDITION, the LL has been converted into a Studio unit (last rented for $1800), also w/ newer CAC, Built-in Bookcases, & separately metered electricity and access front and back. (OWNER States she had a C of O), not yet located.)
APPOINTMENT REQUIRED, (few, if any, open houses. Owner, recovering from complicated operation will be present at all times) The home is available during reasonable hours for viewing. 3pm-6pm, 7 days a week. Owner has a move-on plan, but will need post settlement to implement. Call your agent to get on the list for viewing.
A creative forward thinking buyer could move in, up or down, rent the other. The home has good structure, intact traditional features, great improved systems, exceptional location, good square footage & truly a prideful presence. For the 40 years of Capitol Hill experience, Hill properties & homes achieve equity quickly. Most of the deficiencies in this property can be corrected by a nominal craftsman exchanging the treadmill of DC with rewarding attention. The future on Capitol Hill will be bright and as before enhanced with equity building. Comparability of this home to others of higher value will match on square footage but location is alway a major consideration. (This location is quite fab!) The major systems are updated. The hot water radiator heat provides the best heat available ( softer on the skin than hot air.) The Lincoln Park location is exemplary; Close to markets, menus, metros, museums, mausoleums, monuments, and walkable to the Mall. The Park offers a place to lay your picnic blanket, a place to make a snow sculpture, a treat for your pet, a running space for your exercise & a playground for children or adults. Transportation options are many: Major arteries South, North East or West are near. This home will be an investment in your future & your family. Impressive PUBLIC Schools nearby and several grocers closer, plus PRIVATE schools exist both near & far (check DC schools.) Pubs & restaurants are a healthy walk, but not too close. In preparation, please have your financing in place, before viewing or submitting an offer.
The potential for future happiness is within your grasp, text your agent or me to make an appointment, to ensure a showing before title in transferred to a new buyer, private or investor.
