***NEW LOWER PRICE*** This Capitol Hill home is a spacious 4 bedroom 2.5 bath, with a large, inviting front lawn, storage, exposed brick, and an extra large GARAGE! You are welcomed by exposed brick & gleaming hardwood floors. The stately living room is large and features crown molding. The first floor ceilings have a unique artistic design where light shimmers, setting this home apart from the rest. There is a smart half-bath between the entry & living room. Dining room and kitchen meet at a stainless steel peninsula & large gas range. Sink side has a butcher block countertop, Bosch dishwasher and a GE refrigerator. The rear of the first floor features a bonus room that can be used as a breakfast nook, sitting area, or work space. There is also a stacking washer/dryer conveniently located there. Upstairs are three large bedrooms, and full bath featuring the original, deep, claw-foot tub from 1922. The walls and floor feature Porcelanosa tile & exposed brick. Each bedroom has great closet space. Two bedrooms feature sitting areas, separate from the sleeping area. A perfect spot to catch the morning sun. One bedroom features exposed brick. When you need a fourth bedroom with an attached bath, the basement is ready. The basement bath is a spa oasis with a walk in shower, built in bench, and a luxurious body shower system. Basement was fully renovated in February 2020. It has a clean modern feel, with wet bar and refrigerator. It's an ideal guest suite, family room, or Airbnb. The basement was an extremely busy & profitable Airbnb. For 5 years the Airbnb made $79,033 over 770 nights, averaging $102/night. It features two closets and a separate entrance for guests from the alley. The interior connecting stairs remain so it can also be a part of the home for you to enjoy. The back yard features a private brick patio, with an entrance to a very large garage that can hold a car, bikes, and still offers lots of storage. Off the patio, under the house, is a windowed workshop area/storage unit/weightlifting room. It's rare to find such an extra bonus room, especially with so much natural light. The energy efficient ductless mini-split AC system was installed in August 2020. A new large hot water heater was installed in 2018. The home is zoned commercial and the new owners could potentially build up to 2 more stories on top. Zoned for 50 feet building height. It's just a hop & skip to the Pretzel Bakery and Safeway, a short walk to Lincoln Park, Eastern Market, and almost equidistant from 2 metros - Potomac Avenue 7 minutes away & Stadium Armory 5 minutes away. Great time to buy since interest rates dropped twice over the last 2 weeks! Great location - great space - don't miss this opportunity.
