About this home
**OPEN HOUSE: SAT (11/7) 12-2PM** DUPONT CIRCLE COMPOUND WITH EXCEPTIONAL FLEXIBILITY! Newly refreshed and remarkably versatile, 1603 S Street NW offers a unique combination of an updated main residence, a LEGAL 1BR/1BA lower-level unit, and a DETACHED CARRIAGE HOUSE with private garage parking—creating endless possibilities for guests, an au pair, MULTIGENERATIONAL LIVING, home offices, private retreats, or income-producing space, all in the heart of Washington, DC.
Recent improvements include REFINISHED HARDWOOD FLOORS, an UPDATED REAR DECK, and a COMPLETELY RENOVATED SECOND FULL BATH on the upper level. The main residence offers 2 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, soaring ceilings, abundant natural light, and an open, flexible floor plan. The chef’s kitchen flows directly to the PRIVATE REAR DECK for easy indoor-outdoor living and entertaining. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite enjoys treetop views and a direct sightline to the iconic Scottish Rite Temple, while the second bedroom is complemented by the newly renovated full bath. An upper-level W/D adds everyday convenience and makes laundry especially easy.
What truly distinguishes this property is the flexibility created by TWO ADDITIONAL SELF-CONTAINED LIVING SPACES. The separately metered LEGAL 1BR/1BA lower-level unit features high ceilings, a full kitchen, fireplace, in-unit washer/dryer, updated finishes, and both front and rear entrances. Ideal as a GUEST SUITE, AU PAIR SUITE, private quarters for MULTIGENERATIONAL LIVING, HOME OFFICE, or independent living space, it also provides the option to generate rental income.
The DETACHED CARRIAGE HOUSE expands the possibilities even further, with a large PRIVATE GARAGE and an upper-level studio featuring its own kitchen, full bath, and washer/dryer. Completely separate from the main residence, this flexible space can function as a GUEST HOUSE, HOME OFFICE, studio, private retreat, or income-producing rental. Both additional living spaces have a history of generating rental income, giving a future owner the ability to adapt the property to changing needs while retaining the opportunity to offset ownership costs if desired.
And the location is quintessential DC. Tucked along a picturesque residential street in DUPONT CIRCLE, 1603 S Street NW places you moments from neighborhood restaurants, cafés, shops, nightlife, parks, METRO, and the vibrant 17th Street corridor, with Logan Circle, U Street, and some of Washington’s most celebrated destinations close by. A distinctive combination of RENOVATED LIVING SPACE, MULTIPLE FLEXIBLE LIVING AREAS, CARRIAGE HOUSE, GARAGE PARKING, OUTDOOR SPACE, INCOME POTENTIAL, and an exceptional central Washington, DC location.
