Tucked in along a pretty, tree-lined residential block of 8th Street NE, a rare opportunity to create your own vision in a unique, semi-detached ca. 1900 two-unit townhouse. WHAT'S HERE: A commanding 3-level street presence featuring a 3BR/1.5BA main house + separate 1BR/1BA lower level with CofO. Upstairs, you'll find that just the right handsome original elements remain: a gracious entry hall, two wood burning fireplaces, extra tall ceilings, and 3 exposures from 13(!) over-sized windows. Owned solar panels convey along with SRECs and welcome energy savings. Handy storage attic with pulldown stairs. The separate lower level is currently configured as a 1BR rental with its own HVAC and laundry. Breezeway along side provides rear patio with direct street access. WHAT'S NEXT? Lots of optionsenhance the existing layout and let rental income pay for part of your mortgage, or incorporate the lower level for additional living space. The next chapter awaits. The choice is yours and the opportunity is hot! In between Stanton and Lincoln Parks, neighborhood highlights include newly opened Pascual, Jacob's Coffeehouse, a wine shop, a dry cleaner, and a corner market. A few blocks to Whole Foods and the bustle of H Street. In bounds for Ludlow-Taylor. Bike Score 97, Walk Score 91. On the market for the first time in 37 years.
