A quiet retreat in the shadow of the Capitol Dome. A home that checks all the boxes with an unparalleled location putting you steps from the Supreme Court and Capitol Complex– welcome to 21 3rd Street NE. While the architectural details have been painstakingly preserved by its thoughtful owners, the home recently underwent a comprehensive re-design by Washington design team Sanabria & Co. The restoration was thoughtfully spearheaded by revered local builder Robert Sestak. Offering nearly 2,500 square feet of living space and plenty of room for entertaining including a rooftop deck, this three bedroom, two and a half bath home delivers on precise design and architectural character. Grab dinner at Eastern Market or take an early morning stroll on the Mall as the city wakes – the best of DC is at your fingertips.
