1934 2nd Street NW

This Week’s Find is a LeDroit Park rowhouse with a look and feel that indicates an architect’s touch.

The designer’s influence is revealed in a variety of details in the renovated three-bedroom home. There are tray ceilings, translucent panels in various rooms, accent lighting in the backyard and recessed lighting in the house, and exposed brick that somehow looks polished. The deep backyard has been landscaped with perennials and a large tree, as well as extensive patio space that leads to a one-car garage.

Living Room

Along with three bedrooms in the main house, a separate unit downstairs with one bedroom, kitchen and living area will help offset the mortgage. And extensive soundproofing means that the owners and tenants will be well insulated from each other. More photos and details below.

   How odd for the kitchen to be so completely bland.

   Very nice renovation. Reminds me of another home on 2nd Street that was on the market a year or two ago.

   My house in Eckington, between Rhode Island ave/U street NE is exactly the same, except I have a front porch and a front porch roof. Must be the same architecture and was built in 1912.
