Overview

There is something undeniably magical about a house that greets you with a deep-set front porch and classic shutters, standing proudly above the street like a scene from a storybook. 329 17th Street is that rare Capitol Hill find that feels less like a city residence and more like a sanctuary. The porch isn't just an entryway; it’s a vantage point for the rhythms of the neighborhood—perfect for those slow, golden-hour evenings when the city noise fades into the background. Inside, the home unfolds with airy, effortless grace. Sun-drenched rooms and an open-concept main level create a sense of space that breathes, flowing naturally from the cozy living area into a renovated kitchen that feels clean, modern, and deeply welcoming. Just past the kitchen, the home reveals its secret garden: a fully enclosed backyard that acts as a private urban oasis. It’s a quiet, green retreat for starlit dinners or lazy Sunday mornings. While the property has alley access for potential parking, street parking is notably easy. Upstairs, the primary suite serves as a true hideaway, complete with a massive walk-in closet—a hidden treasure in a historic home. The bathroom feels ethereal, with a large skylight over the shower that lets you start your day under a canopy of blue DC sky. While the home itself feels like a calm reset, it sits at the heart of an incredible transformation. You’re just steps from The Pretzel Bakery and the vibrant energy of The Roost, with two Metro stations nearby. Perhaps most exciting is your proximity to the neighborhood’s future. With the RFK site being reimagined into a world-class campus of parks and recreation, you are witnessing the birth of a new DC landmark. This is more than just a home; it’s your piece of the Hill, perfectly positioned for the magic of today and the brilliance of what’s to come.
