Open this Sunday 9/13 from 2-4 PM! Nestled on a picturesque block in LeDroit Park, this award-winning historic residence is a rare offering that masterfully blends preserved 19th-century character with extensive, thoughtful modern upgrades. Honored with the 2014 Award for Excellence in Design and Construction by the DC Historic Preservation Office for its exterior restoration, the home stands as a true neighborhood gem.
Behind the lovely façade, original ornate details, two electric fireplaces with antique mantels, and refined millwork are complemented by modern systems, and high-end finishes throughout. The 2017 kitchen renovation opened the main level by removing the wall between the kitchen and dining room, creating an airy flow ideal for entertaining. Features include custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, glass subway tile backsplash, KitchenAid appliances, recessed and pendant lighting, and designer fixtures. Hardwood floors, upgraded balusters, and detailed trim work further elevate the interior.
Upstairs, the 2021 bathroom renovation offers a spa-inspired retreat with a freestanding soaking tub, glass shower enclosure, custom vanity, Kohler fixtures, heated floors with app control, and custom storage by California Closets. Additional improvements over the years include a Carrier HVAC system, French drain and sump pump, lowered basement floor with new stairs, new casement windows, skylight with shade, Trex front porch flooring, new fencing, a herringbone brick patio, fresh paint throughout, and updated electrical finishes.
Perfectly positioned in the heart of LeDroit Park, this home offers a true walker’s paradise lifestyle. The Shaw–Howard University station is just .2 miles away, making commuting effortless. Step outside to enjoy neighborhood favorites — morning coffee at Royal, dinner and drinks at the popular Eebee's Corner Bar, you're just moments from The Red Hen, Shaw's Tavern, Whole Foods Market, Yoga District, Michelin Bib Gourmand awarded Phoxotic, a film at Atlantic Plumbing Cinema, U Street Nightlife and live music, or a relaxing afternoon at Crispus Attucks Park. A truly turnkey opportunity in a beloved DC historic enclave.
