Welcome to this striking 1 bedroom + loft with sweeping ceiling height, gorgeous windows almost nine feet tall, secure off-street parking, and in-unit washer and dryer. Truly one-of-a-kind, this condo is conveniently in the heart of H Street, while feeling nestled in the quiet sanctuary of this historic building, a former school turned into condos (the school moved to a larger building across the street). Enter into the convenient foyer, with the updated kitchen to the right. After the foyer, feel inspired by the seventeen foot ceilings in the living and dining room, as well as the bedroom. Direct sunlight from the huge windows brightens the entire condo. The windows stretch up to the high ceiling, and in the winter, enjoy views of the Capitol dome. While keeping a separate kitchen from the dining/living space, it has been opened with extra counter space - to cook while enjoying conversation with guests and enjoying the extra light. The living space is both cozy and open, with 17 foot ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace, and extra built-in storage. The primary bedroom also benefits from the generous ceiling height, with a wide nook for the bed and nightstands, multiple closets, and an ensuite full bath. The loft, which looks out at the rooftops and trees, may also serve as an extra living space, exercise space, office, or extra bedroom. The loft includes a built-in closet and a large storage area. The building is kept in immaculate condition and has a small, outdoor common space, a separate communal storage area for bikes, and a friendly community. This unit is one of the few with reserved, off-street, secure parking. Driving around DC is also a breeze from this condo--thanks to the I-395 on-ramp near the Capitol--you'll spend more time enjoying this amazing city and less time in traffic or looking for parking. You are near multiple public transportation options, including Union Station (and its red-line Metro stop!) a few minutes walk away, major bus lines taking you all over the city, and the H St. Streetcar. Finally, the location is a walker's paradise, with an outstanding walk score of 97. Even better, there are numerous parks, award-winning restaurants, shops, and grocery stores (including Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, a Giant one block away, and more).
