Capitol Hill Gem with Flexible Living Space & Outdoor Retreat Welcome home to this spacious and charming residence in the heart of Capitol Hill — a perfect blend of comfort, character, and opportunity. From the moment you arrive, the home welcomes you with beautiful curb appeal, a lush front garden, and an inviting covered porch ideal for morning coffee or evening relaxation. Inside, you’ll discover a versatile floor plan designed for both everyday living and entertaining. The expansive living room flows seamlessly into a bright, sunlit foyer highlighted by an elegant staircase. A generous multi-purpose room offers endless possibilities — formal dining room, home office, TV/family room, music room, or even space for a grand piano. The large galley kitchen features abundant hardwood cabinetry with exceptional storage throughout. Adjacent to the kitchen, the spacious sunroom creates the perfect table-space dining area and overlooks the fully decked backyard — complete with planter boxes ready for your gardening touch. The finished lower level adds even more flexibility and can easily function as a third bedroom, guest suite, office, recreation room, or oversized family room. This level also includes a large laundry/workroom area, ample storage, a powder room, and potential for a future full bath. This estate sale property is being sold strictly “AS IS,” though it is evident the home has been lovingly maintained and regularly serviced over the years. Ideally located in Capitol Hill, this home offers an exceptional opportunity for comfortable family living, entertaining, or both — all within one of Washington’s most desirable neighborhoods.
