A Home On One of DC's First Inhabitable Alleys

This compact two-bedroom -- tucked away on Snows Court, a Foggy Bottom alley that was one of the first alleys in DC on which homes were built -- spent just under two weeks on the market before finding a buyer. The seller used modern materials and technologies in order to accentuate the historic elements in the 730 square-foot listing. The space was opened using a spiral staircase and the original 1884 exposed brick was carefully restored. A skylight above the stairwell lights up the second floor where the bedrooms are located. Out back, is a small patio for entertaining. 

  • Full Listing: 12 Snows Court NW (map)
  • Price: $752,900
  • Bedrooms: Two
  • Bathrooms: One
  • Square Feet: 730
  • Year Built: 1884
  • Days On Market: 12
  • Listing Agent: Will Crane, Taylor Properties
