Welcome to 225 R Street NW — a breathtaking six-bedroom, 4.5-bath Victorian townhome spanning over 3,000 square feet across four stunning levels in the heart of Truxton Circle, one of DC's most vibrant and walkable neighborhoods.
Originally built in 1910 and gut-renovated in 2017, this residence is a seamless marriage of timeless architecture and modern luxury. Step inside to soaring 9-foot ceilings, gleaming hardwood floors, and an abundance of natural light that floods the main level's open-concept living, dining, and kitchen areas. The chef's gourmet kitchen impresses with a dramatic island, quartz countertops, sleek cabinetry, and stainless-steel appliances — all designed for effortless entertaining.
Head up to the primary suite, where a striking bay window frames the room in light and an en-suite bath delivers spa-quality finishes including a generous shower and dual vanities. The second level is completed by two additional well-proportioned bedrooms — one with its own private balcony — and a hall bath. The spectacular third level is a suite unto itself: a fourth bedroom, dedicated den/home office, full bath, laundry facilities, and a private deck that opens onto the first of two extraordinary rooftop terraces offering sweeping, unobstructed views of the Washington, DC skyline.
The home's crown jewel continues with the fully independent, licensed lower-level unit — a complete two-bedroom, one-bath apartment featuring its own full kitchen, in-unit laundry, full windows and an expansive patio and backyard with front and rear entrances. Whether you're looking for multi-generational living, a dedicated au pair suite, or supplemental rental income, this versatile space delivers.
Beyond your doorstep, enjoy a Walk Score of 94 with easy access to the Shaw-Howard University Metro and several Metro Bus stops, a short stroll to Union Market, acclaimed dining, boutique shopping, and the cultural energy of Shaw, Bloomingdale, and NoMa. This is not just a home — it's a DC lifestyle at its finest.
