Architecturally Striking Two-Level Condo with Private Entrance in Capitol Hill Welcome to this stunning two-bedroom, two-level condo that combines modern design with timeless charm. With its own private street entrance and front entry garden, this home feels more like a house than a condo, offering rare privacy in the heart of Capitol Hill. At its center, a dramatic atrium with 20-foot ceilings creates a striking focal point, while five skylights—three over the dining room and one in each bathroom—fill the home with natural light. Newly refinished floors with recessed floor registers add polish, and the open-concept layout provides loft-like living. Floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room and primary bedroom frame views and bring in even more light, while two private balconies—one east-facing and one west-facing—extend living space outdoors for morning coffee or evening sunsets. The kitchen is equipped with top-of-the-line Jenn-Air, GE Monogram, and GE Profile appliances and enhanced with a coffee station and dry bar. A custom entertainment center with built-in speakers and storage anchors the living space, while custom configurable lighting makes it easy to showcase an art collection. Throughout the home, you’ll also find custom window treatments, plantation shutters, and a newly installed full-size washer and dryer in a dedicated laundry center. The primary suite offers a private café deck, generous closets with custom systems, and a spa-like new bathroom. Additional highlights include a working gas fireplace, museum-quality in-ceiling lighting, and exceptional storage with a full pantry, coat closet, and additional storage spaces. Outdoors, a rear garden, entry garden, and a deck with room for grilling and gardening extend the living space even further. The setting is as exceptional as the home itself. Just one and a half blocks from the Metro and minutes from 295, 50, and 395/695, commuting to Northern Virginia, Baltimore, or Annapolis is effortless. National Airport and Crystal City shopping are close by, while Eastern Market, The Wharf, Navy Yard, and the National Mall with its Smithsonian museums and gardens are all within walking or biking distance. And with the U.S. Capitol always on the horizon, you’ll remain connected to the very heart of Washington, D.C. With its striking architecture, high-end updates, outdoor spaces, and unmatched access to culture and convenience, this condo is a rare offering in Capitol Hill.
