Welcome to this Georgetown original, just steps to Rose Park, shopping, and DC finest restaurants. Step into history with this extraordinary one-bedroom residence, believed to be one of the oldest homes in Georgetown. Thought to have been built by a British sea captain, this 1,015-square-foot treasure blends irreplaceable historic character and warmth. The cozy living room enchants with dark wood paneling, weathered hand-hewn ceiling beams, and an elegant brick fireplace complemented by antique pewterware. Original Belgian tiles, handmade glass windows, and wide-plank wood flooring speak to the craftsmanship of another era. A thoughtfully designed addition brings the home into modern comfort, featuring a bright kitchen and sitting area bathed in natural light from three skylights and a glass door opening onto a private enclosed garden a serene retreat in the heart of the city. Between the open modern kitchen and main living room, modern kitchen, and powder room there is room for a personal office. Upstairs, you'll find a generously sized single bedroom with built-in closets. This also features an ensuite bathroom and another space for a home office with a view of the rear garden area. Offered as-is and partially furnished, the home includes wooden desks, rustic dcor, pewter pieces, and a personal library belonging to its longtime resident, Ann Caracristi cryptologist, World War II veteran, and the first woman to serve as Deputy Director of the NSA. Featured on the Georgetown House Tour and celebrated in the press, this is a rare opportunity to own a genuine piece of American history.
