About this House

Welcome to Historic Capitol Hill! Equidistant between Eastern Market and Lincoln Park, this home gives you the best of both worlds - community and convenience, with Trader Joe's and all that Eastern Market has to offer just a few blocks down the street. Inside the home, you’ll find hardwood floors throughout and a freshly updated kitchen with new cabinets. A layout that provides distinct dining room and living room spaces allow for properly sized furniture and exceptional flow throughout. Both bedrooms are generously sized and won't leave you wondering what you can actually fit inside. The Backyard will make you feel like you own a private retreat in the city. Deep and thoughtfully landscaped, you'll find yourself eager to host your friends. Off-street parking could be created if so desired - though situated on a quiet one-way street, there is ample parking out front. Warm, inviting, and full of charm, it's time to plant some roots in the Historic District of Capitol Hill!
