About this House

A quiet, one-way block off 12th Street NE that is practically equidistant to East Capitol Street and Maryland Avenue, Duncan Place is a central Capitol Hill location within easy walking distance to Lincoln Park (3 blocks), Eastern Market, Union Station, the Capitol Complex (1 mile) and the rapidly happening H Street corridor. Two large, luxury condo developments, Love Joy School Lofts and Lincoln Park Terrace condominiums, are each at respective ends of the Street and have enhanced the vivacity and appeal of this great urban neighborhood. This 3 Bedroom, 1.5 Bath Victorian Bay Front home has been completely updated to offer the classic Capitol Hill mix of old warm charm & personality with modern amenities & an open floor plan. If you’re looking for a good combination of value, space and location, here’s your home!

The main level offers a spacious, open and convenient layout. The large Living Room has a wood burning stove and southern exposure from its front bay window. The Dining Room flows nicely from there and allows plenty of space for casual dining or gracious entertaining. Wood floors and exposed brick add to the warm feel of these rooms. There is a Powder Room (half Bath) under the stairs. The black and white Kitchen is renovated with new cabinets, stainless steel appliances and granite countertops. Off the back is a finished mud room and Laundry area that also house the mechanicals for the home. The back yards boasts a new stone patio and fenced-in, landscaped area that is perfect relaxing & entertaining; it’s low maintenance too.

Upstairs, the Master bedroom up front has THREE double closets and south facing bay window. Two additional Bedrooms, one of which would serve as a great Den or Office, and an updated full Bath finish off this top floor. Don’t miss the good-sized double, mirrored linen closet in the hallway.
