Deal of the Week: Amanda Clarke's Latest H Street Gem
1613 Gales Street NE
Back in March, we featured a three-bedroom row house near the H Street Corridor as a Deal of the Week that had been entirely rebuilt by the architect/owner Amanda Clarke. The post was one of our most popular that week, but not as popular as the home itself: It received seven offers and was under contract two days after we featured it.
This week’s Deal of the Week is Clarke’s latest project, a 1,300 square-foot, two-bedroom row house not far from the home above. The main level of the home has a long living room that runs into a kitchen that then extends into the backyard. There are two bedroom suites on the second floor, but Clarke wanted a third space, so she created an office alcove on the second floor landing.
Living Room into Kitchen
“When I purchased 1613 Gales, my first thought was that I had to add a floor and do something comparable to 1524,” Clarke told UrbanTurf. “After further consideration, I thought about this building’s own character and I wanted to celebrate that instead of imposing something upon it. I love the charm of the front façade; simply contrasting the medallions and the cornice with the brick brings out that character.”
