Description

Capitol Hill charm meets everyday livability at 1609 G St SE — a rare 20 feet wide row home that delivers historic character, generous proportions, and one of the most connected locations in the city.

Classic. Warm. Full of soul: Original doorknobs. Rich trim details. Beautiful banisters. Timeless French doors. This is the kind of home that feels instantly welcoming — filled with authentic character that’s increasingly hard to find.

Light that lives beautifully: Southern exposure pours sunlight through the home all day long, especially into the dining room and expansive primary suite. Bright mornings. Golden afternoons. A warmth that carries through every level.

A layout that actually works: Unlike many Capitol Hill homes, the kitchen isn’t tucked away as an afterthought. Here, it sits right at the center of the home — spacious, functional, and designed to be the true gathering place. Cook. Entertain. Connect. Repeat.

Width that changes everything: At 20 feet wide, the home lives larger than most row houses in the neighborhood. The proportions feel open, comfortable, and incredibly functional from room to room.

Upstairs done right: The oversized primary suite offers a true retreat, while the rare bonus of two full bathrooms upstairs makes everyday living that much easier. Whether hosting guests, managing a busy household, or simply wanting more space, the layout delivers flexibility without compromise.

Lower level versatility: A private bedroom and full bath on the lower level create the ideal setup for overnight guests, extended stays, an au pair suite, or a tucked-away home office.

Outdoor flexibility that’s hard to find: The rear outdoor space offers room to relax and entertain, plus the added potential for private parking thanks to a rear fence that opens for access — a valuable and increasingly rare Capitol Hill feature.

Neighborhood magic: Quiet one-way street. Friendly neighbors who actually know each other. Kids playing outside. Packages brought in without asking. The kind of community people hope to find but rarely do.

Location that checks every box: Steps to the Metro. Minutes to the Southeast Freeway and 295. Less than 15 minutes to Reagan National Airport. Grocery stores, pharmacies, hardware stores, coffee shops, and restaurants are all within easy reach. Eastern Market, East City Bookshop, Labyrinth Games, and scenic walks through Congressional Cemetery quickly become part of your daily rhythm.

Historic charm. Real space. Unmatched community.

1609 G St SE delivers the best of Capitol Hill living — connected to everything, yet quietly tucked into one of the neighborhood’s most loved residential pockets.
