Set on one of the neighborhood's most beloved streets, this four-bedroom, 1.75-bath classic offers the kind of craftsmanship and warmth that simply isn't built anymore. Original wood floors anchor every main floor room, while thoughtfully updated appliances bring the kitchen into the present without sacrificing an ounce of its timeless charm. The main level unfolds with ease. A spacious living room centered around a fireplace sets the tone, flowing seamlessly into a dedicated dining room made for long dinners and good company. Upstairs, four light-filled bedrooms are complemented by original floors and a beautifully remodeled bathroom. Outside, a private garden serves as a true sanctuary, lush, intentional, and perfect for the kind of slow weekend mornings that make you forget the city is just beyond the trees. A detached garage provides the everyday practicality that Capitol Hill homes rarely offer at this level. Below, a large unfinished basement is full of possibility, ready to become additional living space, a workshop, home gym, or simply exceptional storage. Just moments from the neighborhood's favorite restaurants, coffee shops, and Volunteer Park, this home offers the best of Capitol Hill living: walkable, vibrant, and quietly tucked away enough to feel like a retreat.
