Incredible point of entry for one of the coolest blocks in all of SE and Capitol Hill! Sited with green space and playgrounds directly across the street, adjacent tree-lined sidewalks, and walkable to both the Eastern Market and Potomac Ave Metro stations, this two-level Federal with "secret garden" vibes is an unbeatable opportunity for someone looking to be in the heart of the city for under one million. With PRIVATE OVERSIZED GARAGE parking, EXPANSIVE PRIVATE REAR YARD SPACE, and FULL ROOFTOP SOLAR to keep those electricity bills low - roughly $50/month! On top of all that, tons of space exists for home expansion should that ever be a consideration. Two FULLY remodeled bathrooms, a newer updated kitchen with quartz countertops, stainless appliances, and new cabinetry, and MASSIVE Trex deck above garage in rear yard make this home a no-brainer. Grocery and drug store options immediately accessible - the shops and dining of Barracks Row and Eastern Market just four short blocks away! Nothing left to do but move in.
