1612 T St Nw

This home features a newly renovated lower level apartment with Certificate of Occupancy | Prominently situated amidst verdant surroundings in an enviable location bound by the 16th and U Street Corridors, 1612 T Street Northwest is a stately example of townhome living. Originally constructed at the turn of the 20th century, the end-unit residence has been painstakingly restored and improved throughout the decades to straddle the line between modern convenience and preserved historic charm. The imposing four-level structure is classically clad in brown brick, accented by intricate contrasting details. A brick paver walkway steps up from the sidewalk, traversing a petite front garden dominated by a Japanese maple, and ascending a set of steps to the gloss black front door capped by a semicircular transom window. The main level is introduced by grand formal spaces sharing an effortless flow yet maintaining an appropriate level of separation to host elegant gatherings. High ceilings and a refreshingly bright palette create an ethereal ambiance throughout. The formal living room is generously proportioned, featuring a deep bay window lined with clever integrated storage, as well as a roaring angled fireplace with brown mosaic surround. The original grand staircase is a showpiece, highlighting rich, intricate millwork and concealing the formal powder room. Through an archway is the formal dining room, its stunning fireplace surrounded by a hand-carved wooden mantle propped up by mini Ionic columns with a Carrara marble insert. The kitchen, flooded with natural light, features minimalist cabinetry, a hexagonal subway tile backsplash, dark granite countertops, and a suite of full-size stainless steel appliances. A skylight bathes the grand staircase in natural light. Ascending it to the upper level reveals a sumptuous primary suite. The bedroom features clever integrated storage solutions and a private sitting nook, as well as a sumptuous ensuite bath with double vanity and large, tile-clad shower and tub combination. The second upper level bedroom is equally lavish, with a roaring fireplace, private balcony, custom built-ins, and marble bath. Three additional well-proportioned bedrooms are found on the top level, one of which is currently utilized as a large home office with a wall of built-ins. It features a small terrace with sweeping city views. A fully-tiled hall bath is conveniently located steps away from all bedrooms. Fully self-sufficient, the lower level (with certificate of occupancy) has a dedicated exterior entrance, facilitating use as an in-law suite or additional income-generating opportunity. It features a full kitchen, living area, bedroom, and full bath. Benefitting from its end-unit position, the home’s side alley leads directly to the private parking pad, fully fenced and secured by a roll-up garage door and an additional surface space outside the fence– a true luxury within the highly sought-after neighborhood. The parking pad is finished in pavers, doubling as an outdoor entertaining area with direct access from the main level. Historically unique, spacious, rich in amenities, and situated in one of Washington’s most desirable locations close to top restaurants, nightlife, and public transit, 1612 T Street NW stands at the pinnacle of urban lifestyles.
