    What's special

    Just 4 miles east of Capitol Hill, one mile south of Benning Road Metro, sits this charming, brick, raised rambler - fully remodeled by a builder in 2016 and developed into a HOME by the current owners over the last 7 years. 5221 C St SE boasts 4 large bedrooms (each with generous closets) and 3 well-sized bathrooms in over 2,100 SF of finished living space. Limewashed brick, shutters & window boxes, newer roof (2019) and the painted fence bring a welcoming vibe and plenty of curb appeal. This home is deceivingly spacious and flooded with natural light on both levels!   Enter into an open plan main level with durable, luxury vinyl wood-look plank flooring, recessed lighting, and freshly painted walls. The kitchen showcases white, shaker, soft-close cabinets, granite countertops, and an island with seating for 4. The SS Appliance package includes a whisper quiet Bosch dishwasher and Samsung range, microwave, and refrigerator (with water & ice). The expanded primary suite on the back of the home has an en-suite bathroom, sizable walk-in closet, and separate seating area. The second bedroom on this level is also nicely sized and the level is complete with an additional, full bathroom in the hallway.   The fully-finished lower level doubles your living space! The rec room and kitchenette (with SS sink, Electrolux dishwasher, and wine refrigerator) feature new, wood-look flooring and recessed lighting. Also on this level you’ll find a full bathroom, laundry closet, and two additional bedrooms: one with brand new carpet and the other with solid flooring. With so much space, it could be great as a guest suite or for multi-generational living.   Walk-out from the lower level into the flat, fenced yard with both patio and grass areas. Plenty of room to play, host a barbecue, or let the dogs run free! Parking won’t be an issue here with both the extended driveway (can easily accommodate 3-4 vehicles) and non-zoned street parking. This home is 1 block from Harris Elementary & Harris Rec Center; 3 blocks from the Fletcher-Johnson Rec Center; and 1/2 mile from Kipp DC Benning Campus. Anchoring the community, the Marshall Heights Civic Association was founded in the 1940’s and continues to this day. “With a recently revived civic association planning events and advocating for residents, and a task force dedicated to opening a new economic center in the neighborhood, Marshall Heights is drawing fresh attention from those hunting for a D.C. home.” - Hope Hodge Sec, Washington Post, May 31, 2023
