About the Listing CBRB52 - 3056911,9837

Originally constructed in 1903, this marvelous example of Federal Revival red-brick architecture has been lovingly restored by its current owner over the last 5+ years. Considered a “contributing structure” located in the Capitol Hill Historic District, the interior restoration reflects the attention to history and detail that such a designation demands. At almost 2,400 SF total, there’s nothing left to do except indulge and enjoy. The main level boasts stunning restored original wood trim throughout, including the original wood floors. A powder room has been cleverly tucked between the dining room and the kitchen. The kitchen itself has been completely re-done, with all new appliances including a chef’s 36” wide Z-Line range, abundant countertop space for the serious cook, and plenty of storage. From it’s intimate living room, spilling into the embracing dining room, including restored fireplace mantle that’s been cleverly converted into a dry bar / bookcase, and through the kitchen out to the patio, this home is set up for holidays and entertaining. Upstairs has likewise been restored, from the hardwood floors to the trim work, and boasts three bedrooms, including a primary suite with dedicated full bath. Both bathrooms have been restored, with custom tilework throughout. With a 17 foot wide lot, the bedrooms are really generously sized, a luxury on the Hill. In 2019, the basement was completely renovated, from an existing unfinished storage space into a separate, legal, rental apartment. This beautiful conversion features independent laundry, kitchen, full bath, office area, and averages $4,300 / month in rental income. With newer central HVAC upstairs, and separate new ductless mini-splits in the basement, new water service line from the street (replacing the old lead pipe), and solar system on the roof, this is truly a turn-key purchase in the cloak of an historic building. Enjoy modern convenience within historic charm.
