1109 MARYLAND AVENUE NE Look no further! This is the quintessential 1920s Capitol Hill rowhouse with a show-stopping modern twist. As you step into the main level, a rare and special blend of vintage accents and contemporary architectural details fill the space, from the original slate floors in the entry to the incredible soaring ceilings that greet you on the main level. The spacious and light-filled living room invites you to relax, and features a shaded, private front porch balcony set well off the street, perfect for morning coffee. Enjoy cozy gatherings with the double-sided wood burning fireplace, which connects to the true dining area fit for dinner parties. The kitchen features a raised bar for additional seating, butcher block counters, and ample storage with a pantry cabinet and butler’s pantry that could be used as beverage center. The adjacent office nook with built-in bookshelves could also serve as a breakfast area or den. Step outside to the fully fenced backyard patio, a truly serene oasis off a quiet alley - with the potential to add parking with some landscaping changes. Upstairs, there are two inviting bedrooms, each with its own full bathroom, as well as a laundry room with skylight. The primary suite is a retreat, boasting an en-suite bathroom, office area, sitting or dressing area, and space for a king bed. There’s a large closet and a second private balcony, complete with French Doors, that allow light to flood the room. The lower level is the ideal flexible space, both fully integrated into the home and providing access to the guest half bathroom. It also has separate exterior entrances and a lockable interior entrance for additional privacy. A kitchenette makes this versatile space perfect for guests or extended family visits. The front family room flows into a cozy guest bedroom, with a large full bathroom that features a huge walk-in shower with exposed original brick arch and a closet with the secondary washer and dryer. The back entrance easily becomes a spot for secure storage - or transform this space into an exercise area or three-season room! In order to keep the interior entrance to the lower level, there is not a separate Certificate of Occupancy but the space does meet the requirements otherwise and is separately metered for water and power, and has its own HVAC system (2024) plus Hot Water Heater (2015), making conversion a simple task if desired. There is also a brand new roof on the home as of 2024. This walkable location close to the Capitol and near parks, playgrounds, and zoned for Ludlow-Taylor Elementary School can’t be beat. You’ll love being in the center of it all yet living in such a quiet and peaceful oasis. Walk over to the Eastern Market, Whole Foods, H St Corridor restaurants, and Union Station for endless food, shopping, and travel options within blocks of your doorstep! **Showings may begin on 10/31!**
