Description
Welcome to 647 A Street SE, a beautifully renovated Federal-style residence on one of Capitol Hill’s most coveted streets and within the sought-after Brent Elementary School boundary. Set behind a gated front garden and welcoming porch, this timeless home blends classic architectural character with thoughtful modern updates in an exceptional Capitol Hill setting. Inside, abundant natural light pours through multiple exposures, illuminating rich oak hardwood floors and refined period details throughout. The main level offers a graceful flow between the living and dining spaces, creating an ideal environment for both everyday living and entertaining. The spacious living room feels warm and inviting, while the dining room comfortably accommodates everything from intimate dinners to larger gatherings. The renovated kitchen serves as the heart of the home, featuring Carrara marble countertops, crisp cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and timeless finishes that balance style and functionality. Just beyond, a private rear garden and patio create a peaceful outdoor retreat for dining, entertaining, or simply unwinding. Beyond the yard, coveted off-street parking provides a convenience rarely found in such a prime Capitol Hill location. Upstairs, three generously sized bedrooms offer comfortable accommodations filled with natural light. The primary suite overlooks picturesque A Street and features a beautifully appointed marble bath with a rain shower and elegant finishes. Two additional bedrooms and a well-designed hall bath provide flexibility for guests, family, or work-from-home needs. The fully finished lower level adds valuable living space with a large recreation room, bedroom, and full bath, ideal for a media room, fitness area, guest suite, or flexible bonus space. Perfectly positioned in the heart of Capitol Hill, the home is just moments from Eastern Market, Lincoln Park, Stanton Park, Barracks Row, and an array of beloved neighborhood cafés, restaurants, and local shops. The U.S. Capitol, Library of Congress, Supreme Court, Navy Yard, and The Wharf are all easily accessible, offering an unparalleled blend of neighborhood charm, convenience, and connectivity. A rare opportunity to own a beautifully updated Capitol Hill classic on one of the neighborhood’s most desirable blocks.
