Property Description

Welcome to 818 Independence Ave SE, a turn-of-the-century Capitol Hill treasure where timeless character meets modern comfort. Behind its classic brick façade, you'll find a thoughtfully designed layout with sunlit rooms spread across three levels. The main floor showcases an exposed-brick kitchen with gas cooking and modern appliances, complemented by a dining area that opens directly to the private patio-ideal for seamless indoor-outdoor entertaining. In the living room, original pine floors, soaring 11-foot ceilings, and a cozy wood-burning fireplace create an inviting atmosphere. This level also offers one of two bedrooms with an en-suite bath, perfectly suited for guests or as a charming home office. The third floor is dedicated entirely to the primary suite-a spacious king-sized retreat with abundant natural light and generous closet space. The spa-like bath embraces both history and luxury, featuring a walk-in shower, deep soaking tub, marble double vanity, and marble-tiled floors. For added convenience, a laundry closet is tucked right on this level. Outside, a private patio provides a peaceful escape from city life, while the home's unbeatable location puts you just blocks from Eastern Market, Barracks Row, Lincoln Park, and Metro. Everyday errands are a breeze with Trader Joe's and the soon-to-open Mott's Market nearby, along with some of the Hill's best dining at your doorstep.
