Built in 1890, this Italianate Victorian Bayfront has a broad, street-facing front you don’t often see on Capitol Hill. The many windows, warm wood trim, hardwood floors, and exposed brick give the rooms so much natural light and personality. In fact, sunlight comes in from several directions through the large, beautifully wood encased and insulated Anderson windows. The main level has an open living and dining area anchored by a corner brick fireplace, and the large and BRIGHT kitchen has stainless steel appliances, a gas range, and room for a table. The washer and dryer are built into the cabinetry, and a half bath is close by. Both top-floor very private bedrooms have their own full baths. Suite one also has a walk-in closet and access to the large balcony—a good spot to step outside and catch your breath. The roof was serviced end of September 29th and is under a transferable 5-year warranty. The brick chimney was serviced October 5th and under a 7-year transferable warranty (both cover both material and labor). The finished basement includes a kitchenette, full bath, and separate entrance, with space for working from home, hanging out, or hosting overnight guests. Outside, the covered porch, brick patio, bricked fire pit spot, and garden give you several places to sit, plant something, or spend time with friends. Easy on-street parking and nearby transportation options round out everyday life here.
