This Week's Find: Loft Living on Capitol Hill: Figure 1
1315 Independence Avenue SE, #4

Buyers who are looking for a loft in the true sense of the word don’t have a lot of choices in DC. This Week’s Find comes pretty close to the real thing, though.

The 1,258 square-foot unit in the Bryan School project not far from Lincoln Park has 12-foot ceilings, cherry wood floors, exposed brick walls and oversized windows, all characteristic features of lofts. The current owner divided the space into a living and dining area, a bedroom with additional storage and an area for a desk. (There is also a cool wine closet.) In the five years that the seller has lived here, he has hosted a number of parties where fifty or more people have milled around comfortably. More details and photos below.

  • Address:1315 Independence Avenue SE, #4 (here)
  • Price: $549,000
  • Bedrooms: One
  • Bathrooms: One
  • Square Footage: 1,258
  • Listing Agents: Frances and Anne Baker
