Penthouse living at its finest in the beating heart of the Nation’s Capitol. The second largest floorplan in the renown Lovejoy Lofts, this sprawling loft home offers tons of space whether it's your primary residence or a home away from home. Boasting a second-level primary bedroom large enough for a king sized bed as well as multiple additional den spaces including a walk-in closet and lounge, office, and dining room - if you think you’ve seen something like this before, you haven’t. The home offers unique architectural elements including exposed brick walls, industrial polished concrete floors, and a steel loft with spiral staircase. Skylights are throughout the main a-frame space, drenching the home in light. Well appointed, the home boasts designer light fixtures, wall paper, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances. Closets are throughout, making storage a dream. The in-unit washer dryer is smartly hidden in the eves of the home with extra storage as well. Lovejoy Lofts was converted from a school building to condominiums in 2004 and has been one of the Hill’s most coveted condominium residences since. The building design has been lauded for using the original features of the building including the roof lines, exposed brick, and internal staircases to create a modern and industrial residence that echoes the historic nature of the building. A private parking area in the rear of the building is gated and this unit is being sold with one designated parking space. Pets are welcome in the building, with a limit of 2 pets per unit. There is a $200/year fee for each dog. While renting is allowed, there is a 20% cap on the number of units in the building that may be rented ensuring that the building is mostly owner occupied. Situated only one mile to the east of The U.S. Capitol Building, this home is tucked in just north of bucolic Lincoln Park. Truly in the heart of it all, imagine jogging on the National Mall, grabbing coffee with friends at Wine and Butter, walking to Michelin star restaurants like Rose’s Luxury in the evening, or popping over to Union Station for a quick trip out of town. Commuting around Washington is easy, with your car on-site as well as bike lanes and bus lines right outside of your door and easy access to the Red Line at Union Station. Accessible to 395 and 295, this home is only about 17 minutes by car to National Airport.
