Property Description
In the early 1900s, a stately row home rose on a quiet street in Mount Pleasant, its brick facade catching the warm glow of the morning sun. The air carried the crisp scent of new construction mingled with the earthy perfume of nearby Rock Creek Park. Inside, grand high ceilings and defined spaces echoed with the steady rhythm of craftsmanship, as skilled hands shaped a home destined to endure. On the spacious front porch, the hum of streetcars and the rustle of trees created a tranquil melody that complemented the neighborhood’s sense of promise and growth.
By the mid-20th century, the home had become a treasured residence, not just a place to live but a space to create meaningful experiences. The main level was alive with activity, its rooms filled with the aroma of carefully prepared meals and the quiet buzz of connection. In warmer months, the back decks provided a peaceful retreat, overlooking a deep and vibrant lot. The lower level, with its separate entrance, offered flexible possibilities, from creative projects to additional space for guests. The surrounding neighborhood thrived with energy, its streets lined with local markets, rich aromas of global flavors, and a vibrant mix of sights and sounds.
As the decades passed, the home evolved, its character deepening with time. The wood floors carried the patina of countless footsteps, while the front porch, shaded by mature trees, bore witness to seasons of transformation. The air filled with the music of changing eras, from vinyl records to the hum of the digital age, as the home stood steadfast through waves of change. Mount Pleasant’s vibrant history was mirrored in the home, a reflection of resilience, care, and enduring presence.
Now, in 2024, this historic home awaits its next steward. With its dramatic high ceilings, Transom windows, Time-period millwork and trim, inviting rear decks, and a deep lot with off-street parking, it offers endless potential for restoration, expansion, or re-imagination. The walkout lower level, with its separate entrance, creates the possibility for additional living space or an income-producing suite. Situated in one of Washington, DC’s most cherished neighborhoods, near Rock Creek Park and local amenities, this home is ready to continue its story. For those who step inside, it offers more than shelter—it offers the chance to be part of something timeless.
