Description
The General's House Upon entering, you'll be greeted by a sense of warmth and elegance. Living room and dining room each featuring grand fireplaces and adorned with gorgeous chandeliers, invites you to relax and unwind in a space that exudes sophistication. This versatile area provides ample room for entertaining guests or enjoying quiet evenings. The kitchen, a true centerpiece of the home, is a culinary enthusiast's dream. The house features three cozy bedrooms, each providing a peaceful retreat at the end of the day. Natural light pours in through the windows, creating a serene ambiance that enhances the overall comfort and tranquility of the space. One of the standout features of this property is the sweet patio, a charming outdoor space where you can enjoy the fresh air and soak in the surrounding beauty. Whether you're savoring your morning coffee or hosting a summer barbecue, this private oasis provides an ideal setting for relaxation and outdoor entertainment. The stand-up attic storage offers practical convenience, allowing you to easily store belongings. It adds to the functionality of the home and provides an additional area for organization and creativity. It's worth mentioning that this house holds historical significance as the former home of Marine Corps four-star general and Mrs. Richard Neal. Being part of this legacy adds an extra layer of prestige and storytelling to the property. Located just four blocks from the US Capitol, this house offers unparalleled access to the heartbeat of American democracy. The surrounding area is rich with cultural landmarks, museums, and historical sites, immersing you in the vibrant tapestry of the nation's capital. In summary, this cozy 3-bedroom house built in 1877 presents a unique opportunity to own a piece of history just steps away from the US Capitol. With its cozy interior, delightful patio, and captivating historical connections, this home invites you to create lasting memories in a place that seamlessly blends the past with the present. The General And His Lady Richard (Butch) Neal met and married his wife Kathy in 1967. Shortly thereafter, this young couple began a “lifetime” in the Marine Corps. Butch doing what he was ordered to do and Kathy doing what military spouses have done for hundreds of years – serve in silence and keep the family growing and moving forward. Explaining why Dad or Mom are missing holidays and major life events. Moving from town to town and home to home. Never owning your house. Never complaining. Butch rose to become a 4 start Marine general and Assistant Commandant of the Corps. Oh, and he won 2 silver stars during two tours in Vietnam (our country's 3rd highest award for valor). Read his book, “What Now Lieutenant.” Serving during Operation Desert Shield/Desert Storm in the Persian Gulf War as the Deputy Director of Operations. General Neal was tapped by General Schwarzkopf to do the daily brief to the national press on the status of the effort. He became the de facto voice of the military, appearing daily on television and radio. As a salute, when he returned home, he was invited and accepted an invitation to throw out an opening pitch in Fenway Park. Of course it was the 4th of July and the Boston Pops Orchestra played Stars and Strips Forever. Butch and Kathy retired and made 11 4th Street SE on Capitol Hill their first home after the Corp. The Hill is richer for having them as neighbors and friends. Butch continued to volunteer in the community and to mentor many of our neighbors. Butch was always there to give a hand to someone in need. I am proud to have called this unassuming and patriotic family my friends. One disclaimer: the American flag has flown proudly in front of this home for 25 years and last week I replaced it for the next 25 years. Semper Fi my friend.

10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI am a Brent Elementary alumni whom is very very very fond of the school environment. The teachers are nice and helpful. They really care and wanted me to succeed. I became best friends with one of the teachers the first of kindergarten. To this day we are still besties for the resties. It is super easy to make friends I still have many close friends from when I was at Brent. The teachers very active in and out of the classroom. One of my favorite memory’s was when my teacher would play kick ball with us. Just know that sending your child to this amazing school is a great decision.Other Review2y ago - Jefferson Middle School Academy

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI was gonna save my reviews until my child graduated from the school however he is now in a transfer because of the school the new principal along with the principles and administrative staff deflect on behavior issues that disrupt the learning process with the class this school has become a decline of neatness from being a generational student myself we have gone from making parents accountable for their children's behavior to allowing students to do what they want to do when they want to do it without allowing Physical consequence For the actions thanks such as home suspensions parent-teacher and administrative conferences and all of those things. A lot of the teachers are Really really great lesson providers and they do their best to keep the learning process going however the administrative staff do not back them up and all the principal cares about is her LGBTQ and all the other letters where she's enforcing that behavior process yet alone that The issues were volving around the financial stability of the school they are no longer parent community oriented and and the administrative staff only deals with issues that scratch their back or make them feel superior not accountable. It was a hard decision to let my child go from that school however the school that they attend now is a much better school and it's so crazy because Jefferson used to be one of the top DCP S junior high schools I don't know if it was because they converted to a middle school whatever it is if you know that your child excels in the learning process do not send your child here unless it is an ultimate decision where you had to make a serious sacrifice because I guarantee you They will not learn much if the teacher has to be the counselor the parent the teacher and the provider all Within a 45 minute period of 20 to 25 plus students. I am extremely disappointed of the new curriculum way that they handle things I am extremely disappointed of the new curriculum way that they handle things. And it's so crazy because a lot of their staff has already left I can count how many times my child has had to go without a subject teacher With the school year So until they fix the behavior disciplinary process this school will go down in rocksOther Review1y ago
