Description
This property is no longer available to rent or to buy. This description is from December 04, 2023
***House is Under Contract, Open House on 10/29 is Cancelled*** Located a quarter way down the sweetest and quietest stretch of Kentucky Ave on the Hill, lies a 3 Bedroom and 2.5 Bath townhouse with PARKING that provides a lovely balance of expanded and updated, and historic true-to-DC details. Set back from the one-way street with tons of street parking for visitors, this home welcomes you with a sizable fenced front yard, new exterior paint, and darling curb appeal. Step into a well-proportioned first floor equipped with two sides of exposed brick, rooms perfectly partitioned by a center staircase, and sleek recessed lighting throughout. The living room is illuminated by two front-facing windows and warmed with hardwood floors. Past a hall with a coat closet, you’ll find a dining room with space for a 4-6 seater table. The kitchen is HUGE with copious counter space, gas cooking, shelving, and two walls of freshly-painted cabinets. The open dining room and kitchen area catch plenty of light from two windows in the dogleg. Finishing out the first floor is a generous half-bath, additional built-in shelving and stacked laundry. Outside, a no-maintenance trex porch with plenty of space to lounge, entertain and grill overlooks seasonal plantings and private and secure parking.Upstairs, the spacious front bedroom has a wall of built-ins, a big closet and two sunny windows. A second bedroom serves as a perfect guest room or WFH space. At the end of the exposed brick and skylight-lit hallway a wonderful, newly built primary suite includes a bathroom with stylish tile and glass-paneled shower, a walk-in closet with custom shelving and a bedroom with an oversized window. A hall bath rounds out the top floor and hosts a tub and double vanity. A newly re-finished crawl space, new tankless water heater, a young roof and recently installed hardscaping give new owners peace of mind that some big-ticket items are already taken care of. The home is positioned in one of the most ideal corners of Capitol Hill, a few blocks in either direction to the Historic Congressional Cemetery (and dog park!) and a newly rebuilt Safeway. Within easy walking distance (and inbounds) to Watkins School and Potomac and Stadium Armory Metro, you may just leave the car behind more than you’d think! This beautifully updated home on one of the most special one way in/out blocks of Capitol Hill, please come see all there is to love on Kentucky Ave SE! Please note: a recent renovation expanded the finished square footage to over 1440 square feet(see floor plans), the tax record reflects previous square footage.

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI really wanted to love this school. My daughter started here last year. I must say that my experiences here have been very uncomfortable. This is not a friendly environment ( for some families). The staff are rude, aloof, and un-inviting. Including the principal. I do feel as though this school favors certain families in their community. However, it is not a school wide approach. I honestly feel that the behavior of some staff is intentional. I get some of the dirtiest looks I’ve ever gotten. I feel like it’s an act of retaliation, due to a complaint I made last year about the school.Parent Review5mo ago - Eastern High School

2/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI'm glad we chose Eastern for our students. My one and only complaint is that they offer only 1 world language. Other than that, they are academically challenging and offer an amazing array of extras, like debate, a medical sci academy, all the sports, jrotc, on and on. And the full IB program! Unless you live a great distance from Capitol Hill, there's no reason to go elsewhere.Parent Review5y ago - Stuart-Hobson Middle School

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI am a 2022 graduate from Stuart-Hobson Middle School. And I would just like to say that this school is a excellent school if your want your child to do great things. I wouldn’t listen to the great school rating because in the class of 2022. They had a bunch of child’s going to Benjamin Banneker which is the best school in DC ,School Without Walls second best school in DC, and McKinley Technology High School third best school in DC. Me being one of the students who attend McKinley Technology. All of the Teachers care about the students well being and there education. I had a teacher who I felt like I could always talk to. No one who attends Stuart-Hobson will feel alone you will always have a friend or two.Parent Review1y ago

"Great neighborhood to raise kids. Lots of parks, outdoor theatre, block parties, shopping close by. Area is under development with lots of new restaurants and stores."
- Prop. M.

"Stadium is the last Metro stop before orange blue silver lines split apart and go in different directions. This means if you are commuting from Downtown DC is easy, you can jump on any Blue/Orange/Silver train headed East. If you live further out then you need to wait to get on the right blue, silver or orange train and getting home could possibly take much, much longer."

"The Harris Teeter grocery near Penn and Potomac has closed, but the new Safeway at 14th and D St. SE and Trader Joe's at Eastern Market are awesome"

"I work from home. If commuting to Virginia from this neighborhood it would be pretty bad. Within DC and using public transit one would probably have an easy to normal DC commute."
- Shannon H.

"Street parking is the worst, so it’s best to have a garage or drive through. It’s super inconvenient to not be able to park in front of or near your house at times"

"It feels historical, quiet, and residential and has great parks- but it’s still w/in walking distance to shops, restaurants, bike trails (river), freeway entrances, and mass transit. The best place all around that I’ve lived in this city. "
