OFFERS DUE TOMORROW (TUESDAY 6/16) AT 2 PM!
Welcome to 1610 Marion Street NW, an extra-wide, beautifully appointed semi-detached row home that masterfully blends historic DC charm with thoughtful updates honoring the home's original character. This three bedroom, one-and-a-half bath residence offers exceptional curb appeal and timeless character.
Inside, the sun-filled main level features an open and inviting floor plan accented by a dramatic exposed brick wall, a large bay window, and an ornate original wood-burning fireplace. Spacious living and dining areas flow effortlessly into the renovated kitchen, where marble countertops, a farmhouse sink, gas cooking, stainless steel appliances, and a breakfast bar create the perfect balance of style and function. A beautiful powder room with herringbone marble flooring completes the main level.
Upstairs, the oversized primary suite serves as a peaceful retreat, featuring a decorative exposed brick fireplace, expansive bay windows with leafy treetop views, and generous closet space. Two additional bedrooms offer crown molding, abundant natural light, and ample storage, including one with direct access to a private balcony overlooking the rear garden. The renovated full bath is elegantly finished with floor-to-ceiling subway tile, a wooden double vanity topped with marble, marble basketweave flooring, and brass-accented sconces. A conveniently located upper-level laundry area with full-size stacked washer and dryer adds everyday practicality.
The private rear garden is a true urban oasis, surrounded by mature trees and lush landscaping. Multiple outdoor living spaces, including a covered deck off the kitchen, a second-floor balcony, and an expansive brick patio, provide exceptional opportunities for relaxing, entertaining, and gardening. Thoughtfully designed garden gates allow the patio to be used for off-street parking, though street parking is very easy on this quiet one-way block.
Small, easily overlooked features include additional attic storage and concealed plumbing lines to allow a stacked washer/dryer to be installed in the upstairs hallway, which would free up the current laundry room to become a second full bathroom. And the large sidewall of the house is ideal for a two-story mural to be painted, which could make this house iconic in the neighborhood!
Perfectly positioned on one of Shaw's most charming tree-lined blocks, the home is tucked away from the noise but within two blocks of neighborhood favorites including Shaw-Howard University Metro Station, Shaw Neighborhood Library, Dacha Beer Garden, Kennedy Recreation Center, and Marion Street Intergenerational Garden. Enjoy easy access to acclaimed restaurants, cafés, shopping, parks, dog parks, tennis courts, and all the energy and convenience that make Shaw one of Washington's most sought-after neighborhoods.
