Description
This modern and fully renovated garden level apartment features two bedrooms, a modern kitchen, updated bath, spacious and open living area and in unit washer/dryer. The unit is located in the lower level of an original 1870s James McGill home in the heart of the Ledroit Park Historic District. Formerly owned by Dr. Marion Carter, whose family was linked to Sally Hemings, the house graces the street with its covered porch, slate roof, period detailing and architectural grandeur.
The apartment is fully updated and boasts a gorgeous, open kitchen with stainless appliances, subway tile backsplash, quartz countertops, open shelving and task lighting. The open living area has exposed brick. 8' ceilings throughout. Both bedrooms have shatterproof glass windows. Heating and cooling are individually controlled per mini splits. There is soundproofing with cork layered between drywall in the ceiling. The exterior stairwell has lighting for safety and visibility.
The apartment has a patio entrance with room for a bistro table to sip your morning coffee. The backyard is mainly for use by the upstairs unit but can be used upon request. It is one of the largest in Ledroit Park, and its iris patch was planted by Dr. Carter.
Incredible location in Historic Ledroit park in the center of the city surrounded by Shaw, U St/Cardoza, Bloomingdale and Howard University. With a walk score of 94, the Big Bear Cafe Boundary Stone, Red Hen, District Yoga and Whole Foods are just outside your door. There are loads of nightlife, convenience, restaurants and parks nearby. The Shaw-Howard U and 14th/ U Street Metros are only minutes away. There is also plenty of street parking!
Available January 15, 2025 (with some flexibility). Email to come see it this week! We can also accommodate facetime/zoom tours for those renting from out of town.
