Here's a rare find: two units under one roof, giving you room to live and options to make it work for you. Live in one and rent the other, set up guests downstairs, or spread out across both - the choice is yours. Central A/C throughout - no window units to haul out every fall. And in-unit laundry, so there's no basement trek or shared machines. Out back, a private yard and garden give you your own patch of green to plant, grill, or just sit out on a warm evening. The location puts you in the heart of a stretch of the city that keeps getting better. H Street is just a short walk west, with Maketto, the Atlas Performing Arts Center and plenty of spots to grab dinner or a drink. The Stadium-Armory and Union Station metros are within reach. The fields and trails around RFK and Kingman Island are close by when you want some space to stretch out. With two units, a yard, central air and in-unit laundry at an affordable price, this is the kind of flexible property that's hard to come by this close to H Street. Come see what you can do with it!
