Description

The Courts on Capitol Hill. Tucked just steps from the seat of government, this one-bedroom residence at The Courts offers a rare combination of architectural character, a quiet setting, and unmatched proximity to Capitol Hill’s most iconic landmarks. Defined by balanced, orderly symmetry and distinctive semi-circular fanlight details above the entries, the collection of five buildings reflects a Federal Revival–inspired design. Stretching along Justice Court NE and Maryland Avenue, The Courts is known for its understated presence and timeless appeal. Built in 1971 and thoughtfully integrated into the historic fabric of the neighborhood, the community features brick walkways, intimate courtyards, and mature trees, creating a sense of calm just moments from the energy of the city.
Unit 208 A (Unit 44) is a well-proportioned one-bedroom, one-bath home with 574 square feet. Inside, classic details define the main living and dining area: crown molding, chair rail, and picture frame millwork bring structure and refinement to the space, while a wood-burning fireplace (with new firebox and flue) anchors the room and adds warmth and character.
Parquet hardwood floors run throughout, and the efficient galley kitchen is complemented by the convenience of an in-unit washer and dryer.
Nicely sized hall storage closet in the unit (14”5’ x 2’11”) large enough for an office nook or large multi-use coat closet. In addition there is a generously sized bedroom closet.
Beyond the residence itself, the setting is what truly distinguishes this offering. The Courts sits directly across from the Senate office buildings and just two blocks from the U.S. Supreme Court, with the Library of Congress, the U.S. Capitol, and the National Mall all nearby. Union Station and Capitol South Metro stations are within easy reach, making commuting seamless.
Local favorites, including The Monocle, Union Pub are just around the corner, offering a mix of long-standing Capitol Hill institutions and neighborhood gathering spots.
This is Capitol Hill living at its most authentic; quiet, established, and deeply connected to the rhythm of the city. This location has it all! Call the easy-to-reach listing agent with all inquiries!
