 Imagine stepping out your front door each morning to not one but TWO of THE MOST ICONIC sights in Washington, the U.S. Capitol and right beside it the Washington Monument. It is an absolutely thrilling trick of perception!
The setting, of course, is East Capitol Street and a handsome home of unequaled Edwardian charm. With beautiful inlaid wood floors, high ceilings, and carefully preserved original details paired with a fine array of contemporary enhancements.
Every room has been polished to absolute perfection, from the spacious living room, to the center parlor (which doubles the entertaining space while keeping the rooms intimate), to the chic dining room with enormous chestnut pocket doors.
The kitchen? Granite, of course, with sleek cabinetry and top-of-the-line stainless appliances from LG (including a HUGE fridge and a gas range with 5th burner).
 
Plus there's a dreamy master bedroom, two additional over-sized bedrooms (one with private porch), a finished lower level with full bath to use as a fourth bedroom, family room, or home office.
