Property Description
Inside, soaring ceilings, exposed brick, hardwood floors, and abundant natural light create a warm and inviting atmosphere throughout the main level. The gracious living room is anchored by a fireplace and flows seamlessly into the dining area and custom eat-in kitchen. The kitchen features generous cabinetry, ample prep space, and a spacious center island that serves as the heart of the home. Just beyond, floor-to-ceiling doors open to a private rear patio, creating an effortless extension of the living space for outdoor dining, entertaining, or quiet evenings at home.
A striking floating industrial-style staircase leads upstairs to two generously proportioned bedrooms and a beautifully renovated full bath featuring custom tilework and a glass-enclosed shower. The sun-filled primary bedroom offers its own private deck, providing a peaceful outdoor retreat, while the second bedroom is framed by three oversized windows that bring in exceptional natural light. Recent improvements include fresh interior paint, an updated water heater, and new patio fencing, all in 2022.
Perfectly positioned in the heart of Capitol Hill, 1242 K Street SE places you moments from neighborhood favorites including The Roost, Eastern Market, Barracks Row, Lincoln Park, Trader Joe's, and the Anacostia Riverwalk Trail. Two nearby Metro stations, including Potomac Avenue, provide convenient connectivity throughout the city, while Navy Yard and some of Washington's best restaurants, cafés, markets, parks, and entertainment destinations are all within easy reach.
Blending classic Capitol Hill architecture with modern updates, private outdoor living, and exceptional walkability, 1242 K Street SE presents a rare opportunity to own a beautifully designed home in one of Washington, D.C.'s most beloved neighborhoods.
