Best New Listings: Two Federal Townhouses on Opposite Sides of the City

by Nena Perry-Brown

This week’s Best New Listings include an East Village stunner and a sun-filled rowhouse on the Hill.

High on a Hill in East Village

Sited on a hill in Georgetown’s East Village, this semi-detached Federal was recently renovated and combines much of the grandeur and classic features that bring buyers to the neighborhood. The house boasts four ornately-carved fireplaces, and columns delineate the living and dining room areas. A rectangular bay protrusion creates bonus sitting areas off the living room and the master suite, while another bedroom leads directly onto a roof deck with a view of the Washington Monument. A narrow brick-paved rear yard runs the length of the house with archways and a stone water feature, leading to a parking area for three vehicles.

South-Facing and Sunny on the Hill

This south-facing Federal rowhouse near Potomac Avenue Metro may seem quaint and unassuming from the exterior, but the interior space offers plenty of options to serve many needs. The two bedrooms on the second floor not only share a skylit bathroom with spa tub, shower and lots of storage space, but also share a door between them for those who may need the extra room as an office, nursery or walk-in closet. The basement has a separate entrance and can serve as a separate one-bedroom, one-bathroom suite or flex space. The house also blends modern touches with original details, with a decorative iron-wrought staircase leading to the front door, a variety of radiators throughout the house and a skylit recessed staircase maximizes space in open main floor.
