Architect-designed and masterfully expanded, this Hill East residence takes full advantage of its coveted DOUBLE LOT. Set on a quiet, tree-lined street, the classic 1925 porch-front home features a striking contemporary side addition that enhances both flow and functionality. Inside, expansive living areas offer the perfect backdrop for entertaining, while serene outdoor spaces invite relaxation and gardening. The result is a rare combination of historic charm and modern ease — a home that truly lives large in both style and space. Step inside to a generous open main level featuring heated hardwood floors and an intuitive layout. A large dining area flows seamlessly into the open kitchen, complete with a breakfast bar that comfortably seats four—an inviting space for entertaining. Just beyond is a versatile bonus room—perfect as a homework zone, reading nook, music room, or cozy den—along with a convenient powder room. To the right, the addition houses a spacious family room with leafy backyard outlooks and great natural light. This room is partially walled for separation and privacy but easily accessed from the kitchen, and it opens through sliding glass doors to a small covered deck with stairs leading down to the beautifully landscaped patio and yard. Upstairs, the primary suite feels like a retreat in the treetops, offering leafy views and abundant natural light. Two additional bonus spaces provide remarkable flexibility: one on the upper level, ideal as an office, library, or playroom, and a top-floor loft that opens directly to the roof deck—ideal for a gym, media room, or creative studio. The lower level includes a large sunken fourth bedroom with oversized windows and direct access to the patio. It has functioned beautifully as a home office, but its size and light make it suitable for a guest suite, studio, or rec room. A walk-out mechanical/storage room houses your bikes and also offers direct access to the rear parking pad with an EV charger. Out back, native trees provide shade in summer and full sun in winter, creating a peaceful, four-season landscape. The yard features layered outdoor living spaces—including a stone patio and privacy fencing. Just a block away, the lush Green SEED community garden brings neighbors together to grow, gather, and celebrate. It’s where friendships take root, kids play, gardeners harvest, and milestones—from birthdays to graduations—come to life. A true extension of the neighborhood and a peaceful retreat in the city ADDITIONAL HIGHLIGHTS include a high-efficiency boiler with radiant in-floor heating, mini-splits in the basement, fully owned solar panels & SREC’s, landscaped front and rear yards, and front access to the lower level of the addition. All this is just steps from both Stadium/Armory and Potomac Avenue Metro stops, The Roost, the Anacostia River Trail, Triangle Park, The Pretzel Bakery, Eastern Market, Congressional Cemetery, Sala Thai and Duffy's Irish Pub.
