The property is zoned RF-1 which can be converted into a 2 unit by right and features a separate English basement entrance with approximately 7-foot basement ceiling clearance, presenting exciting possibilities for renovation, reconfiguration, or future value-add opportunities, subject to buyer verification, zoning regulations, and applicable permitting requirements.
Additional highlights include a detached garage, private driveway parking, and the flexibility to transform this classic DC property into something truly exceptional.
