Property Description
Does it get any better than the heart of Capitol Hill? 211 5th is 2 blocks to Eastern Market, 3 to the Metro and 3 to the Capitol grounds, with some of the city's best restaurants along Pennsylvania Avenue and 8th Street. Stock up at Trader Joe's, then buy your fresh, local produce at Eastern Market. Inside, are 9-foot-plus ceilings, architectural charm, and a floor plan built for entertaining. The landing at the top of the stairs is ready to serve as an office, den. Off the kitchen, a secluded patio and an in-home sauna, rare for a Capitol Hill row house, offer a daily reset without leaving the Hill. A side yard leads to an uncommon breezeway, suitable for storing bicycles and gear. Your morning coffee, your commute and your evening errands are all a short walk from your front door.
