    Open House Sat, Sept 19, 2026, 12:30pm to 3pm! Price Reduction — Now $425,000! Corner‑Lot Gem with Parking, Outdoor Living, and Room to Grow 🏡 1927 21st Place SE | Fairlawn / Anacostia Now offered at $425,000, this semidetached corner‑lot home delivers exceptional value and versatility just minutes from some of DC’s hottest destinations. Solidly built, 1927 21st Place SE blends classic charm with functional living spaces and rare outdoor features. Originally a three‑bedroom and now configured as two, the upper level offers two spacious bedrooms and a full bath, maintaining a traditional and comfortable flow. The main level includes a formal living room, separate dining room, and a bright kitchen with island/bar seating and abundant cabinetry. A rear family‑room addition with a cozy fireplace opens directly to the backyard—perfect for morning coffee, weekend relaxation, or quiet evenings at home. A convenient half bath completes this level. The finished basement adds flexibility with a recreation room, built‑in bar, laundry area, half bath, and direct access to the covered patio. The built‑in gas grill (conveys) expands your outdoor entertaining options. Sitting proudly on a rare corner lot, the property features a fully fenced yard, covered patio, and parking for at least two cars via alley access. Unlike many row homes with tight alley views, this home enjoys a more open, airy backdrop that feels refreshingly uncommon. For buyers with vision, the pull‑down attic/4th level offers exciting potential for expansion, storage, or creative transformation.
