Bright, designer 1BR with an amazing location in Hill East available September 1. Located just steps from the orange, blue, and silver Metro lines at the Potomac Avenue stop and the Roost, a popular food hall. 5 minute walk to Safeway; 15 minutes walk to shops, fitness studios, and restaurants in Eastern Market or Barracks row. Top notch appliances and construction details (see below).
I renovated this apartment with the intention of living down there myself and renting out the upper unit, but my wife and I decided to stay upstairs and rent out the lower unit instead. What this means for you: a unique design with a lot of attention to detail and no cut-corners. It is truly a place I would want to live myself because that's the way I designed it! Some of the highlights include:
- Large windows on both sides of the apartment with an open layout allow natural light to penetrate throughout
- Heated natural slate floors (beautiful but no cold feet in the winter!)
- Exposed brick wall the entire length of the apartment with a nifty shelf for displaying art or other items
- Premium stainless steel appliances (Blomberg and Haier), including a dishwasher, made to maximize space in a compact kitchen
- Expansive granite countertop island with plenty of space to prepare food and seat up to three people
- Personal touches including custom glass cabinet handles and pendant lamps from an artist collective in Kenya
- Natural cork sound-proofing insulation for privacy
- A surprising amount of storage space, including two closets and built-in shelves
Minimum of 12-month lease. Water and gas is included. Tenant is responsible for electric and cable/internet (currently wired for Verizon Fios, but Xfinity and others are available too). Cats are ok but an additional $250 security deposit. No smoking. On-street parking only (with DC plates).
