Description
A rare blend of historic character, gracious scale, and modern comfort, this beautifully preserved 1908 Capitol Hill residence showcases exquisite original woodwork and architectural detail throughout. Offering 4 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, including a separate 1-bedroom, 1-bath au pair or rental suite, the home is filled with period features seldom found intact today: three sets of original pocket doors, hardwood floors, rich wood moldings, decorative fretwork above the entryway, the original entranceway tile, original fireplace tilework, an inset china cabinet, dramatic floor-to-ceiling built-in shelving, and an original skylight. Thoughtful updates to the electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems provide modern convenience while respecting the home's remarkable historic character. A private two-car garage adds an increasingly rare amenity in the heart of the city. Outdoor living is equally exceptional, with a second-floor balcony overlooking historic Capitol Hill homes, a large deck, and an expansive Zen-inspired garden offering multiple seating and entertaining areas - a true urban oasis. A charming neighborhood park sits directly across the street, while Lincoln Park is just half a block away and Eastern Market is an easy walk. The home also enjoys convenient proximity to the planned Commanders stadium and surrounding waterfront redevelopment, close enough to benefit from one of Washington's most significant new destinations while remaining comfortably removed from the activity. For the discerning buyer seeking history, space, privacy, outdoor living, and exceptional walkability, 1302 A Street SE offers a distinctive Capitol Hill lifestyle.
