Spoiler alert: rooftop.
2209 12th Place NW. Place, not street. This is important because 12th Place is a little DC gem. Tree lined and quaint with colorful houses, when you turn onto it you know you are somewhere special. Walk through the door to this 1 BR/1.5 BA home and pay attention to the details. Crisp bright whites, a stuccoed fireplace that contrasts well with the exposed brick and hardwood floors. A clever skylight to the 2nd floor. The wall treatment outside the half bath feels exotic. Granite counters in the kitchen pair with warm color cabinets and efficient use of space. A new HVAC system and laundry right here, very convenient. Out back a private fenced in patio. Upstairs an ample desk area and loads of built in closet space. Oh my that renovated bathroom. Zellige tile and a towel warmer, now I definitely feel fancy. The skylight in the floor, fits in perfectly with this amazing room. High ceilings and so much natural light, must be because of another clever skylight through the roof deck. Is that? Oh yes! a library ladder, who has not always wanted one of those? More exposed brick, and a cedar lined window seat that runs the width of the room. Now to that roof deck, Its the perfect time of year for one. A fantastic city view. The walk score in this neighborhood? 97. A new Whole Foods around the corner, U St. Metro a few blocks away, 3 Michelin starred restaurants and plenty of parks. Open house both Saturday and Sunday 1-3.
