811 E CAPITOL STREET SE, WASHINGTON, DC 20003

$1,600,000

The quintessential Capitol Hill row home reimagined for contemporary living, 811 East Capitol Street SE is situated along a verdant, tree-lined thoroughfare just east of the neighborhood's namesake building. Set unusually far back from the street on a rare, deep lot, the residence enjoys enhanced privacy, usability, and timeless appeal.… Read More Approached via a broad sidewalk and private two-car driveway, the home's refined curb presence is defined by a red brick fae7;ade accented with dark trim. A main staircase with a wrought-iron railing provides a dramatic introduction to the main level, an open-concept space bathed in natural light. The main living area, anchored by a striking fireplace, flows effortlessly into a dedicated dining space and onward into a thoughtfully renovated kitchen. Here, white shaker cabinetry, quartz countertops, a matte subway tile backsplash, marble mosaic floors, and a full suite of stainless-steel appliances converge to create an atmosphere of everyday luxury. A large window overlooking the streetscape illuminates the interiors, while a powder room completes the main level. Upstairs, two well-appointed bedrooms provide tranquil retreats. The primary suite, positioned at the rear, offers dual closets and a private ensuite bath. The secondary bedroom features generous storage and access to a dedicated hall bath. A discreet laundry closet with a stackable washer and dryer adds to the home's functionality. Enhancing its versatility, the property also includes a fully independent lower-level residence with its own entrance, full kitchen, living area, bedroom, bath, and in-unit laundry. Brightened by above-ground exposures and opening to a private brick-paver patio, this space presents an exceptional opportunity, whether as an investment with dual income potential or as a private, income-producing residence that seamlessly supplements the lifestyle of an owner-occupant. The rear patio extends into a spectacular garden measuring over 53 feet in length, an exceedingly rare offering in this coveted neighborhood. Fully fenced and shaded beneath a verdant canopy, the outdoor spaces provide both privacy and serenity in the heart of the city. Steps from Lincoln Park, neighborhood shops, and charming cafe9;s, 811 East Capitol Street SE combines historic character, contemporary sophistication, and investment flexibility, setting a new standard for Capitol Hill living.
