235 12TH STREET SE

WASHINGTON, DC 20003

There are Capitol Hill addresses that are coveted for their location, homes admired for their architecture, and properties distinguished by the lifestyle they offer. Very rarely does one residence bring all three together. Just one block from Lincoln Park and four blocks from Eastern Market, 235 12th Street SE is an exceptional offering—an elegant, completely reimaged residence with three en-suite bedrooms, a private garden, and the extraordinary addition of a detached carriage house and garage. Behind its handsome brick façade, a thoughtfully designed three-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath home unfolds with an effortless balance of sophistication, comfort, and modern convenience. Wide-plank hardwood floors, oversized windows, and beautifully proportioned living spaces establish an inviting atmosphere, while the natural flow between the living room, dining area, and chef's kitchen creates an ideal setting for both intimate evenings and larger gatherings. At the heart of the home, the kitchen is as impressive as it is functional, appointed with a professional gas range and pot filler, built-in water dispenser, microwave drawer, wine refrigerator, and built-in espresso maker. French doors extend the living space outdoors to a private, fenced backyard—a welcome urban sanctuary perfectly suited for morning coffee, al fresco dining, and evenings spent entertaining beneath the open sky. Upstairs, three beautifully appointed bedroom suites offer a level of privacy and comfort rarely found in the city. The primary suite is a destination unto itself, complete with a gas fireplace, wet bar, custom walk-in closet with window, and French doors opening to a private balcony. Two additional bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bath and generous closet space, provide exceptional accommodations for family and guests. A discreetly concealed washer and dryer, smart dimmers, LED mirrors, and integrated surround sound further enhance the home's thoughtful design. And then there is the feature that truly sets this property apart: a detached carriage house with secure garage parking. In a neighborhood where off-street parking is coveted, the combination of a private garage and a separate, finished upper-level retreat is extraordinarily uncommon. Complete with a kitchenette, beverage refrigerator, and full bathroom, the carriage house offers remarkable flexibility—as a private guest residence, home office, creative studio, or an independent space for extended stays. It is an exceptional extension of the home, providing a degree of versatility and privacy that is difficult to replicate anywhere on Capitol Hill. Beyond the front door, the very best of Capitol Hill becomes part of everyday life. Lincoln Park is just around the corner, Eastern Market is an easy stroll away, and Barracks Row's celebrated restaurants, neighborhood boutiques, coffee shops, and Metro are all close at hand. Adding to the neighborhood's appeal, the newly reopened Mott's Market brings an inviting neighborhood gathering place just moments away, complete with a coffee bar, made-to-order gourmet sandwiches, and ice cream. 235 12th Street SE is more than a beautiful new home. It is a rare opportunity to experience Capitol Hill with a level of space, privacy, and convenience that is exceptionally difficult to find.
