The grace of a beloved neighborhood and the soul of a happy home meld effortlessly in this classic Capitol Hill abode. Whimsical and well-built, with soaring ceilings grounded by warm wood floors and garden views. The kind of place you’ll stay a while and settle in. But when you want to go out? For a start there’s Macrina, Rocket Taco, happy hour at Rione or Monsoon, coffee at Lladro. Everything you need-just a hop, skip and jump from home. Including transit, great schools, and some of the city’s best parks. Drenched in sunlight with a Rain Wise Garden, this little paradise comes complete with blueberries, grapes and plums. And a sweet little playhouse for afternoon tea. Off street parking? The cherry on top. The living is easy on 17th.
