Property Description
Own a perfectly restored piece of DC history in the heart of the vibrant and ever-evolving Anacostia neighborhood. This historic 1890 home, once built by the Anacostia Building Association as an effort to house the working class commuting across the river, has been brought back to life by the L'Enfant Trust with a $500,000 renovation using tasteful and stylistic finishes designed to preserve the original character of the home while bringing it into the modern era. Like its neighbors, 1518 W Street SE is a single-family, wood frame, Queen Anne home with a full width porch featuring Eastlake detailing, scalloped shingles in the gable, bracketed eaves under the roof with a ridge pole, and a hipped roof front porch. A quintessential cottage-style dwelling iconically Anacostia and located just one block from the Frederick Douglass National Historic Site.
Step inside and you'll be greeted by stunning hardwood floors that flow seamlessly throughout the home, accentuated by high ceilings and recessed lighting. The main level boasts a spacious living area, a formal dining room that's perfect for hosting—complete with a striking lantern-style chandelier—and a beautifully designed kitchen. Featuring granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, 42-inch white shaker cabinets, and ample space for an island, this kitchen is a dream for home chefs. Plus, it offers direct access to the expansive backyard, making indoor-outdoor entertaining a breeze. A convenient half bath rounds out the main level.
Upstairs, you'll find two generously sized bedrooms and a full bath, along with a laundry area for added convenience. Need storage? This home delivers more than enough with a separately accessible cellar—ideal for all your storage needs. Outside, the huge backyard with privacy fence offers endless possibilities, whether you love to garden, entertain, or let pets roam freely.
This move-in ready home is where modern charm meets timeless character and it could be yours.
