545 23RD Place

Spectacular 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath rowhouse in historic Kingman Park, meticulously updated with intentional details throughout. Originally built in 1930, this sensational home has been completely transformed by the architect-owner, including a custom kitchen renovation in 2020, gorgeous walnut wood floors, 2nd floor laundry, a stunning upper level bathroom with heated floors and custom lighting, ductless Mitsubishi heat pump system throughout, along with the charm of original radiators for heating, a fully finished lower level, and a fenced-in rear parking pad. The inviting front porch has been freshly painted and updated with new wrought-iron stair railings. Upon entry into the foyer, you'll enjoy a sun-splashed open floor plan, with separate living and dining areas, a tucked-away main floor powder room, and a beautifully designed chef's kitchen with quartz counters including a large island with bar seating, stainless appliances, classic pendant lights, and custom-designed cabinets and drawers with soft close glides and closers. The main level is connected to a large rear deck with composite decking, and is perfect for entertaining over an evening meal or enjoying a morning cup of coffee. Head upstairs to the bedroom level and you'll be impressed by the well-planned layout (renovated in 2021) including a spacious primary bedroom with a large custom closet system, a large guest bedroom with another custom closet, and a third bedroom that is also perfect as a home office. Small touches abound on the second floor, including an automated skylight window with blackout shade, a well-organized laundry closet with new washer and dryer, and a gorgeous custom tile bathroom with a rotating vanity light, soaking tub, and separate water closet for privacy. The finished lower level adds another 600 square feet of living space, and includes a full bathroom and additional refrigerator, access to a large storage room with cabinets and a wash sink, and rear access to the secure parking pad and rear deck, and additional under deck storage space. Additional features include spray-foam insulation in the attic and rear walls, soundproofing insulation along the party walls, and new plumbing lines and electrical wiring throughout. This immaculate home is conveniently located within blocks of the restaurants, shops and markets on H Street NE, a brief stroll to nearby parks and playgrounds including The Fields at RFK, easy access to Kingman Island and numerous bike trails including the Anacostia Riverwalk Trail, and a short walk to the Stadium-Armory Metro (Orange, Blue, Silver lines), DC Streetcar, and multiple bus routes. The close proximity to I-295 and Union Station allows for the ability to quickly get out of the city, and it's not far from Eastern Market and Barracks Row for a Sunday brunch or night out!
