Description
**YOUR WAY, YOUR RULES — A Rare Capitol Hill Duplex on One of DC's Best-Kept-Secret Streets**
Welcome to 1241 Duncan Place NE — a stunning Federal-style duplex on a storybook, cherry tree-lined block that most Washingtonians don't even know exists. Built in 1900 and thoughtfully updated for modern living, this 1,568 sq ft two-unit residence gives you something almost unheard of in DC real estate: *options*.
**Three ways to own it.** Keep both incredible tenants and collect $5,738/month in rental income. Live in one beautifully appointed unit and let the other pay your mortgage. Or request it vacant and claim the entire home as your own private Capitol Hill retreat. The flexibility is entirely yours.
Each of the two 2BR/1BA units spans approximately 800 sq ft and is independently metered with its own in-unit washer/dryer and dedicated HVAC system. The main level showcases a sleek renovation — quartz countertops, refinished hardwood floors, an updated bathroom, recessed lighting, and fresh finishes throughout. Upstairs offers generously sized bedrooms, an updated bath, and a spacious living room that opens onto a private second-story deck. Out back, a fenced stone patio with alley access is perfect for morning coffee or evening unwinding, while the charming front sitting area invites container gardens, herbs, and seasonal blooms.
Duncan Place is Capitol Hill's hidden gem — a quiet, one-block lane tucked between 12th and 13th Streets NE, bookended by Lovejoy Park and Kingman Field. Victorian facades line one side, classic Federal row houses the other. Yet step around the corner and you're minutes from the electric energy of the H Street Corridor, the shops and restaurants of Union Station and Eastern Market, Whole Foods, beloved neighborhood coffee shops, and the green expanse of Lincoln Park. Bike, bus, or drive — downtown DC, the Capitol Complex, and NoMa are all effortlessly within reach.
This is that rare listing where charm meets cash flow, and peaceful living meets unbeatable convenience. Don't just browse — come see it for yourself.<br />
**Tours by appointment only.**

1/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe strong community at Miner is exactly what we are looking for in a neighborhood school, and I am thrilled that my daughter will be going there for the next 7 years - from Pre-K and up. Boiling down a schools' performance to standardized test metrics does not in any way reflect the learning, the support and the experience-based learning going on at this school. If you pass on this school experience because of what some website says about test numbers, you will really be missing out.Parent Review6y ago - Eastern High School

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy daughter things were missed place or stolen and the school did nothing. They are unprofessional and all over the place, the kids basically run the school.Parent Review9mo ago - Eliot-Hine Middle School

- 374 Students
5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI am a student at Eliot hine currently. And this is the worst school I have been to. The principal and vice principal do not hold kids accountable. My friends and I have been harassed, assaulted, and bullied by other students here. And they do nothing about it! I got bullied here and my mom emailed the vice principal about it. And she didn’t do anything! Also I am quite sure there is a p3do working there. And they hired teachers that degrade their students. The math teacher I have gets upset at me for not knowing certain problems, even though the teachers don’t teach. They just make us watch videos about math and expect to do every problem that is difficult. And the new science teacher they hired is AWFUL. She is extremely strict and takes away student’s recess for the smallest things. Like being late or even just having your hood on during class. Barely any of the staff members actually care about the students and the situations they are dealing with at home. They do not help students either. Please do not send your child here.Other Review1y ago
