About this House

A home renovated from head to toe by locally renowned Dilan Homes already has a certain calling card, and it has been lovingly maintained by the only owners it has had since the renovation. From the moment you step onto the grand front porch, you can feel the difference. The house is WIDE, gracious, and full of breathing room in a way that completely breaks from the narrow, chopped-up city floor plans we are all used to pretending are normal. Handcrafted transom windows frame the front door, coffered ceilings set the tone inside, and seamless 7.5-inch white oak floors pull you through a bright, open main level built for actual living. Tucked cleverly under the living room staircase is a custom built-in nook—perfect as a cozy, out-of-the-way dog house or as seamless extra storage.The kitchen keeps the whole thing moving with GE Café appliances, Calacatta countertops, a waterfall island, and a perfectly tucked-away powder room for guests. Upstairs, the width keeps paying off. The primary suite feels like its own private retreat, with a spa-style bath, great closet space, and an attached bonus room that can flex as a nursery, office, dressing room, or the walk-in closet of someone who has decided they are done compromising. Two additional bedrooms and a second full bath give everyone their own proper place to land, while the massive hidden ceiling storage area gives you the kind of extra space city houses almost never seem to have. And the current owners are exactly the type of people you want to buy from. They professionally sealed and upgraded the crawl space insulation and encapsulation—the kind of behind-the-scenes improvement most buyers may never notice, but that any home inspector or contractor will immediately appreciate for its impact on efficiency, durability, and overall performance. Furthermore, they have maintained the home so meticulously that you could easily be convinced the renovation was completed just months ago rather than years. With a Dilan house, you already expect a high standard; what is remarkable here is how beautifully that standard has been preserved. Out back, the home opens to a secure fenced yard and private deck that are ready for morning coffee, slow weekend BBQs, or just a little quiet space at the end of the day. Similar adjacent homes have added private parking within a backyard footprint like this one. But what really makes this one special is Bay Street itself. This is one of those premium, idyllic Hill East blocks built around front porches, waving to neighbors, and actually knowing the people around you. The community is real, and the annual Fourth of July block party is the kind of neighborhood event people do not miss. You are close enough to Stadium-Armory Metro to be there in minutes, but far enough away that the street still feels calm, tucked in, and residential. The location is only getting more exciting. The Commanders’ new home stadium and the more than $3.8 billion redevelopment around it are just two quick blocks away, bringing major energy, commercial activity, and a completely new chapter to the RFK campus. One of the most underrated neighborhood perks is the Anacostia Riverwalk Trail, which connects you easily to the beautifully redone fields at RFK and the nature trails of Kingman Island. The neighborhood haunts are already strong, too. The Pretzel Bakery is right there for soft pretzels and some of the best breakfast sliders in DC. The Roost has become one of the Hill’s go-to social hubs with a food hall full of options for every appetite, and Lincoln Park is an easy stroll when you want coffee or a glass of wine at Wine & Butter. It is rare to find a home that pairs this much scale, finish, care, and community in one place, but this one does exactly that

    "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 it’s best to have a garage or drive through. It’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 it’s still w/in walking distance to shops, restaurants, bike trails (river), freeway entrances, and mass transit. The best place all around that I’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. "
