Downstairs, two generous bedrooms and two full baths provide the ideal balance of privacy and comfort. The en-suite bath features a double vanity, glass-enclosed shower, and separate soaking tub, while the second full bath—conveniently located just outside the second bedroom—serves both the bedroom and guests. A full-size washer and dryer add everyday convenience. Step outside to an expansive shared yard surrounded by mature trees—a rare outdoor retreat ideal for entertaining and spending time with friends and family. There’s plenty of space for grilling, dining al fresco, or simply unwinding after a long day. A Trimetals bike storage shed that conveys with the property provides secure, private storage for multiple bikes. Love where you live—Gales Street is lined with beautiful ginkgo trees and a welcoming community feel. Directly across the street, the Rosedale Recreation Center offers a playground, pool, and library—all slated for renovation and expansion, bringing even more amenities in the years ahead. A Capital Bikeshare dock sits right at your doorstep for easy neighborhood adventures. Recent updates include new hardwood floors on main level (2024), a brand-new microwave (2025), and a freshly coated roof and building repaint (2021). This home also presents an excellent opportunity for investors, with no rental restrictions other than short-term rentals such as Airbnb, allowing for flexible long-term leasing options. Located near the H Street Corridor, Lincoln Park, and major destinations such as Eastern Market, NoMa, and the RFK redevelopment, this home offers effortless access to dining, shopping, and entertainment. Zone 6 residential parking grants priority across much of the city, from NoMa to The Wharf and from H Street to Navy Yard and Capitol Hill, making daily life and exploring DC remarkably convenient. A rare opportunity to own a home that blends space, style, and outdoor living in one of DC’s most vibrant neighborhoods.
