Distinguished circa-1900 Victorian row home in the heart of Capitol Hill offering nearly 2,500 finished square feet across four finished levels. Rich in original architectural detail and thoughtfully updated throughout, this 3BR/3.5BA residence seamlessly blends historic character with modern comfort. Soaring first-floor ceilings, heart pine floors, oversized windows, original mantels, custom built-ins, and rare pocket doors create warmth, scale, and timeless appeal throughout the main living spaces. The updated kitchen features maple cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a preserved original fireplace surround. Upper-level bedrooms are filled with natural light, including a spacious bay-front primary suite and renovated bath with dual vanity and skylight. The finished lower level offers exceptional flexibility with a separate in-law/ au pair suite complete with kitchen, full bath, and private entrance. Additional highlights include double-pane insulated windows, rear outdoor space, and beautifully preserved period details rarely found in such turnkey condition. Ideally located moments from Eastern Market, neighborhood dining, and Metro access along the highly sought-after Blue, Orange, and Silver lines.
