The extra width of the home allows for defined, spacious living areas with the formal living and dining rooms, separated by original pocket doors. In the living and dining rooms, ceiling and wall stenciling—discovered beneath old wallpaper—was carefully replicated and preserved, adding to the home's vintage appeal. While the living room working fireplace is perfect for cozy evenings. The updated kitchen ensures modern comfort, and aluminum-clad wood windows installed at the rear of the home in 2002 bring in natural light while maintaining energy efficiency. Step outside to a backyard oasis designed for both garden lovers and entertainers. Established flowerbeds bloom across three seasons, and the patio is ideal for enjoying morning coffee or hosting evening gatherings around a fire pit. The seating area doubles as a Riverkeepers Permeable-Paver parking pad, with a private rear gate, off-street parking, and a 248-volt level 2 EV charger. Upstairs, the beautifully restored staircase and banisters lead to the bedroom level. The primary suite features three large windows, working fireplace with a mantel built in New England by the owner's father, and an en suite bath. Two additional bedrooms and a versatile sitting room offer flexible space for a home office, library, or cozy den. Another rare feature of this home: a south-facing enclosed sun porch perfect for morning yoga or your dream indoor garden room, was rebuilt in 2014 and its exterior was fully restored in 2024. Throughout the years, the home has been lovingly maintained to honor its original craftsmanship, including the preserved historic wood siding and wide heart pine floors. Major system updates include a new HVAC system and water heaters (2021). A large solar array installed in 2024 sits atop a new membrane roof, significantly reducing utility costs. Located just three blocks from Eastern Market, this home offers easy access to the Metro, shops, restaurants, weekend street markets, and so much more. A bus stop one block away takes you directly to the Smithsonian museums and downtown DC in minutes. Dog walks might take you past the Capitol or Supreme Court, through Lincoln Park, or along the Anacostia River to Nationals Stadium or Audi Field. Getting to Virginia or Maryland is easy via nearby highways, and National Airport is just a 15-minute drive.
