About this home
Set high on the hill, this home has that rare combination of privacy, natural light, and an easy, open energy from the moment you walk in. There is a sense of elevation here in more ways than one. Light pours through the space, the skyline stretches off in the distance, and the whole home feels bright, calm, and just a little bit special.
Inside, the layout simply works. The living room, dining area, and kitchen all connect in a way that feels effortless, anchored by a generous island that naturally becomes the center of daily life. Morning coffee, weeknight dinners, a glass of wine while catching up with friends—this is the kind of space that makes all of it feel easy. Renovated in 2021, the finishes strike that sweet spot between clean and elevated, with quartz countertops, matte black fixtures, and sleek appliances that bring a polished, modern edge without feeling cold. It is the kind of kitchen that looks sharp in photos and feels even better in person.
Tucked just out back, the private outdoor space is a real bonus—and one you simply do not see often at this price point in DC. It is your own little exhale. A spot for coffee in the morning, dinner outside on a nice night, or just a quiet moment of fresh air before the day gets moving.
The primary bedroom is privately positioned and paired with its own en suite bath, creating a true sense of retreat within the home. The second bedroom or den gives you the kind of flexibility buyers actually need right now. Home office, guest room, workout space, reading room—it can adapt with you instead of forcing you into one lane.
The building itself carries through the same thoughtful design sensibility, with clean, modern finishes and a small, tight-knit community that gives the home an even better feel. There is something nice about living somewhere that feels connected without feeling crowded. And yes, street parking is refreshingly easy, which in Washington, DC, is no small thing.
Then there is the location. This is Eckington, one of the most exciting neighborhoods in DC, and for good reason. You are close to neighborhood staples like Lost Generation Brewing Company, The Red Hen, Big Bear Café, and Boundary Stone, with Union Market just minutes away when you want even more food, energy, and options. The Rhode Island Avenue–Brentwood Metro Station on the Red Line keeps commuting simple, the Metropolitan Branch Trail gives you an easy outlet for biking and running, and the DC Bouldering Project is nearby for climbing and fitness. Bryant Street continues to add even more momentum to the neighborhood, with new retail, dining, and Alamo Drafthouse just a short distance away.
This is an Eckington condo with private outdoor space, skyline views, beautiful natural light, and finishes that feel genuinely dialed in. More than that, it is a home with a really good rhythm to it, in a neighborhood that keeps getting better and better....
