A Piece of LeDroit History Goes From House to Home
Featured just last week, this Queen Ann Victorian is one of the first detached homes built in LeDroit Park and is one of the most eye-catching houses on Anna Cooper Circle, with a distinct buttermilk color and stained glass windows. The grand interior is 4,300 square feet over four floors and retains a lot of its original charm, from the uneven vaulted ceiling and exposed posts in the attic to the two-bedroom in-law suite in the basement. The huge chef’s kitchen has multiple islands, a built-in window seat, tin-press ceiling and a breakfast nook with U-shaped eating area. The house found a buyer in under a week.
