About this House

Updated row home with secured private parking and an entertainer's dream back yard. This is a lovingly maintained row home in Capitol Hill East. The white and stainless kitchen features gas cooking, quartz counters, plenty of cabinet space, and full sized stainless steel appliances. Off the kitchen is a large laundry room/mudroom/den that leads out to the spectacular back yard. The fully fenced in back yard features an outdoor kitchen with built in gas grill and beverage refrigerator, outdoor TV, storage benches with cushions, heater, sun shades, turf grass, lighting, privacy fencing, and secured parking with roll up garage door. All of the exterior doors have been replaced in the last few years. The main level has wood looking ceramic tile and a half bath with bidet seat off the living room. Follow the exposed brick up the stairs to 2 bedrooms and a bathroom. The primary suit is large enough to accommodate a king sized bed along with dressers. The closet has organizers to help with added storage. The 2nd bedroom is spacious enough to accommodate a queen sized bed, or set it up as an office or nursery. The updated bathroom offers glass tile, a floating vanity, and bidet seat. There is a community garden directly behind the home, accessed through the alley or the back rollup door. A garden space coveys with the sale (first one as you walk into the garden). The community garden offers water, a pergola with seating, a kids play area, and an open green space to run around in, and beautiful perennial flowers. It is an oasis in the city and one of the best community gardens! There is a $200 per year fee to help maintain the garden and pay for water. The location is amazing. It is 2.5 blocks from Stadium Armory, less than a mile to Barracks Row and Eastern Market, 1/2 mile to Safeway, lots of parks and green space nearby.

    "People hanging in front yards and on porches, farmers market at eastern market and events at the congressional cemetery."
  • Trulia User
    "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."
  • Timothy J.
    "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"
  • Trulia User
    "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 itโ€™s best to have a garage or drive through. Itโ€™s super inconvenient to not be able to park in front of or near your house at times"
  • Richard C. O.
    "Street festivals occur during the Summer months and there is at least one parade that occurs down East Capital toward the Capital."
  • Rachael N.
    "It feels historical, quiet, and residential and has great parks- but itโ€™s still w/in walking distance to shops, restaurants, bike trails (river), freeway entrances, and mass transit. The best place all around that Iโ€™ve lived in this city. "
  • Rachael N.
    "Residential family feel, historic homes yet in the city. Many parks and metro accessible. Near Anacostia River Trail too!"
  • Prest D.
    "The way houses are built and the people around make this place unique."
  • Quinn B.
    "They would like it because there's many places to walk your dog."
  • Rashid A.
    "The unique part of Barney Circle is it's very beautiful. The people who I've been in contact from there are very talkative and nice."
  • Rashid A.
    "Commuting and traveling is a breeze -- no traffic or interruption from anybody."
  • Rashid A.
    "It's a safe and free playzone for all ages."
  • Lchilds7612

  • Elaine H.
    "I love the original features in this house! I love the proximity to so many amenities! I love the view! And I really love the great family-friendly, dog-friendly -- just plain friendly -- neighbors and neighborhood!"
  • Tifpotter
    "Capitol Hill East is an upcoming neighborhood. It has excellent police presence, a bagel bakery, new bars, Harris Teeter, and a charming old school feel about it. Honestly, I don't want to live anywhere else. "
