    Price Reduction — Corner‑Lot Gem with Parking, Outdoor Living, and Room to Grow - Just Minutes to DC Hottest Spots: 🏡 1927 21st Place SE | Fairlawn / Anacostia Welcome to 1927 21st Place SE, a classic semidetached row home offering solid construction, thoughtful updates, and rare outdoor space on a corner lot. Originally a three‑bedroom layout and now configured as two, the upper level features two generous bedrooms and a full bath, maintaining a traditional, comfortable flow. The main level includes a formal living room, a 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—ideal for morning coffee, weekend lounging, or quiet evenings at home. A convenient half bath completes this level. The finished basement is designed for flexibility, offering a recreation room, built‑in bar, laundry area, half bath, and a rear exit to the covered patio. The built‑in gas grill (conveys) expands your entertaining options outdoors. Sitting proudly on a rare corner lot, this home offers 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 property enjoys a more open, airy backdrop that feels refreshingly uncommon. For those with vision, a pull‑down attic/4th level provides exciting potential—expansion, storage, or creative transformation. With a new roof recently added, this home is well‑maintained, structurally solid, and ready for its next chapter. 1927 21st Place SE blends classic DC charm with modern comfort and future possibilities—an inviting home today with room to grow tomorrow.
