154 13Th Street SE

Just steps from Lincoln Park stands a GRAND row of handsome homes constructed in 1904, capped with slate turrets, and fronted by chiseled limestone stoops. Overlooking the park-like intersection of Kentucky and Independence Avenues, #154 13th St SE has been lovingly preserved for five decades by the same family! The pristine Victorian facade and double-entry glazed tile foyer lead to a formal front parlor with commanding custom fireplace hearth of chestnut panels, all gleaming in the glow of afternoon sunshine. Separate dining room and adjacent butler's pantry offer all-original architectural details, flowing to the rear kitchen - a mid-century modern time capsule. Out back, enjoy morning sunshine and coffee on the double-decker porches overlooking private garden under towering oak canopy. Stunning sky-lit stairs lead to three LARGE bedrooms, 5 closets, and immaculate restored bath with original tile and claw-foot tub. Down to earth, a lower level studio apartment / guest suite features separate front entrance, full kitchenette, bonus bath. Rare Opportunity for balance of broad building dimensions, well-preserved 1904 spaces, surfaces, and style, and updated systems and fixtures; all surrounding the communal green commons of Capitol Hill!
