About This Property

Tucked on a generous 7,300 square foot corner lot in one of DC's most beloved neighborhoods, this fully detached Mount Pleasant home — built in 1880 and thoughtfully updated — is a rare and special find. From the moment you step into the formal, gracious foyer, you're embraced by the kind of warmth and craftsmanship that only a home with true history can offer. Original hardwood floors and intricate historical details speak to the artistry of a bygone era, lovingly preserved and waiting to be appreciated anew. A working fireplace anchors the gathering space with timeless charm, while the open kitchen draws you in with custom built-ins that flow naturally into the dining room — blending old-world character with the ease of everyday living. With five bedrooms and three and a half baths spread across multiple levels, there's generous room for family and guests alike. The third floor offers wonderful flexibility — whether you envision a private in-law suite, a peaceful guest retreat, or a quiet sanctuary all your own, the space adapts beautifully to the life you want to live. The grounds are nothing short of enchanting. Three generous porches invite you to linger — whether you're sipping your morning coffee, enjoying an evening breeze, or simply soaking in the neighborhood's timeless charm. The kitchen patio extends the living space outdoors, perfectly suited for al fresco dining and effortless entertaining. Mature trees provide dappled shade and a sense of permanence, while seasonal plantings bring color and life throughout the year. With expansive lawn space and endless landscaping possibilities, the outdoor potential here is as inspiring as the home itself. Off-street parking and garage space complete the picture. And the location? Simply unbeatable. Steps from the beloved neighborhood bistro Elle, the vast green expanse of Rock Creek Park, and all the charm and convenience of Mount Pleasant Street — boutique shops, cafes, weekend farmers markets and more — this is city living at its most vibrant, with a quiet residential retreat to come home to every evening. Steeped in character, rich in detail, and perfectly positioned in one of Washington's most coveted neighborhoods — this is a home that doesn't just shelter you, it tells a story.
