515 14TH STREET SE
Washington, DC 20003

Cool, thoughtfully considered, and completely unexpected. 515 14th Street SE takes the classic Capitol Hill row house and gives it a decidedly modern point of view. This three bedroom, one full and a half bathroom home has been thoughtfully renovated with an eye toward both design and livability, pairing exposed brick, open ceiling joists and architectural details with wide-plank wood floors, and an airy, open floor plan.

The main level flows seamlessly from living and dining spaces into a sleek, modern kitchen with generous counter space and streamlined cabinetry. Oversized windows bring in beautiful natural light, while the exposed structural details and original staircase add warmth and personality. Upstairs, three bedrooms continue the clean aesthetic, including a serene primary bedroom with painted brick and leafy treetop views.

But the real surprise is outside. The deep rear garden feels worlds away from the city—a lush, exceptionally private landscape filled with mature specimen plantings, Japanese maples, evergreens and thoughtfully layered greenery. It’s less backyard and more urban sanctuary, with secure off-street parking for one car tucked beyond.

All of this is set in one of Capitol Hill’s most convenient locations, with Metro, Eastern Market, neighborhood parks, restaurants, coffee shops and everyday amenities close at hand. Distinctive without trying too hard, 515 14th Street SE is a house with great style, a remarkable garden, secure parking, and a personality all its own.
