If you've been waiting for a Capitol Hill home that gives you more room without giving up the character and walkable lifestyle you love about the city, 1391 F Street NE deserves a closer look. Behind its classic historic box-bay façade, arched windows, and landscaped front garden, this three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath rowhome offers a floor plan that makes every bit of that space count. All three bedrooms and two full bathrooms are together upstairs, including a private primary suite, creating the kind of layout that can comfortably carry you through your next chapter. The main level balances historic character with everyday practicality. Hardwood floors run through generous living and dining spaces, while decorative fireplace mantels add architectural interest and built-in cabinetry and shelving provide a surprising amount of storage. There is plenty of room for a true dining table, whether dinner means takeout on a Tuesday or a house full of friends for the holidays. The spacious kitchen offers abundant cabinetry and counter space, stainless steel appliances replaced in 2025, and new flooring installed the same year. A main-level powder room adds convenience, while out back, a fully fenced patio creates a private outdoor extension of the home for grilling, dining, gardening, or simply enjoying a little fresh air. Upstairs, the floor plan becomes one of the home's biggest advantages. Three true bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and laundry all share the same level, a configuration that can be surprisingly difficult to find in a historic rowhome. The primary suite is a standout, with soaring ceilings, tall arched windows, beautiful natural light, generous closet space, and its own private bath. Two additional bedrooms provide the flexibility for sleeping, working, hobbies, guests, or whatever life brings next. The home's thoughtful updates also make ownership easier. A new energy-efficient dual-fuel HVAC system was installed in 2025, and the roof and fully owned solar system were installed in 2023. The solar panels generate much of the home's electricity, with no solar payment to assume, and the associated SRECs convey to the new owner, providing the potential for both lower electricity costs and ongoing SREC income. An Ecobee thermostat, smart smoke detection, and smart locks on both front doors add another layer of modern convenience. Then there is the location. From this tree-lined Capitol Hill block, you're close to Lincoln Park for green space and just a few blocks from the restaurants, coffee shops, and energy of the H Street corridor. H Street continues to offer an eclectic mix of neighborhood staples and newer destinations, from ramen and Caribbean food to pizza, sushi, and Indian dining. Stadium-Armory Metro provides Orange, Blue, and Silver Line access, while the nearby RFK campus is entering an ambitious new chapter of its own. DC's current master plan envisions transforming the 180-acre site into a major new destination with parks, recreation, housing, retail, entertainment, civic spaces, and improved connections to the Anacostia River waterfront. At 1391 F Street NE, you don't have to choose between the charm of an established Capitol Hill neighborhood and a home that works for where life is headed next.

Not just a home, but your own private sanctuary in the heart of the city!! This classic 18ft-wide Victorian, located on one of the most inviting blocks in Southeast, represents an exceptional - and rare! - opportunity to own a beautifully modernized and updated residence attached to what is UNQUESTIONABLY one of the most attractive and inviting outdoor spaces in **ALL** of Capitol Hill. Off the back of the home the fully fenced true backyard features tiered decking off the kitchen, a meandering brick pathway through a garden worthy of any magazine, mature trees, flowering plants of multiple varieties, picnic benches with wisteria-draped pergola above, and fixed cushioned seating around a private fire pit. On the inside, three bedrooms upstairs give plenty of options in terms of layout and utility, while preserved period details such as the working wood fireplace on the main living level provide an echo of pre-war charm. Updated kitchen and windows speak to comfortable living in a well-maintained home with beautiful hardwood flooring throughout, and the highly desirable separately metered English basement gives incredible flexibility for any future rental income and/or long-term guests. Or simply take the bright, inviting space and use it as a bedroom, family room, or how it's used now: as a conservatory and exercise studio. Everything that matters in the home is newer, with the entire roof just recently replaced, brand new modern HVAC system less than one year old, and newer hot water heater. Looking for parking?? The private parking space abutting the property is the best of both worlds: it doesn't eat up ANY of the DEEP, beautiful lot (itself offering plenty of room for future expansion)... but yet it's all yours! Who needs the car anyway when you have parks, playgrounds, and Metro (Eastern Market and Potomac Ave), all within walking? Grocery and drug store options are one block away... the shops and Michelin-starred dining of Barracks Row and Eastern Market are just three blocks away! With this one, there's nothing left to do but just move in and start enjoying life: a historic property with future expansion potential, new roof and systems, and one of the top yards in all of Capitol Hill.
