Property Description

Situated on one of Shaw's most beautiful blocks, this meticulously curated 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath rowhouse offers approximately 2,550 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space across three levels, plus a basement ideal for storage. With 10-foot ceilings, rich ebony-stained hardwood floors, elegant wainscoting and wall moldings, and exposed brick, the home strikes a rare balance between classic DC architecture and bold, contemporary design.

The open concept main level flows seamlessly from a generous living room — anchored by a linear gas fireplace and bay window — through a formal dining area and into the kitchen, finished with Carrara marble backsplash, quartzite countertops, top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances, and instant hot water and filtration at the sink. A separate family room/den and powder room complete the first floor.

The entire third floor is devoted to the primary suite — a rare and coveted feature in DC rowhouse living. The spacious bedroom features a linear gas fireplace, bay window, and floor-to-ceiling drapery, while the spa-like Carrara marble bathroom offers Grohe fixtures, double vessel sinks, and a frameless glass walk-in shower with dual shower heads, wand, and bench. Two custom walk-in closets complete the suite.

The second floor offers two spacious bedrooms — one with an en suite bathroom and walk-in shower, the other served by a full hallway bathroom with bathtub/shower combo — plus a flex bedroom/home office. Outside, a fenced-in front garden with seating and a private rear patio — featuring a commissioned mural by DC-based artist Anieken Udofia — offer exceptional outdoor living. Covered parking with a translucent roof and roll-up garage door completes the package.

The home is ideally situated in the heart of Shaw, steps from some of DC's best restaurants, bars, and coffee shops — including award-winning spots in nearby Blagden Alley and the James Beard Award-winning Oyster Oyster just half a block away. A full-service grocery store is a 2-minute walk, and two Metro stations are a 5-10 minute walk away, with easy access to Logan Circle, U Street, and downtown DC.
