Capitol Hill is home to a handful of special and intimate one-off named blocks that stretch between the main corridors that are typically titled with numbers, letters, or states. Meet 1221 Duncan Pl NE, a quintessential 3 Bed+ 2.5 Bath townhouse located down one of these less-traveled paths. The homes on Duncan Place were built wide and deep enough to allow for three REAL bedrooms and two ACTUAL full bathrooms upstairs (and a half down), which provides the convenience many are looking for. These houses are just SO comfortable to live in.

A sweet front garden adorned by a cherry blossom tree welcomes you to this roomy two-level home. The front door opens to a HUGE living space with warm wood floors, a working fireplace, and an open staircase that allows light to pass through; creating a big and breezing feel. Where the dining table goes is entirely your choice, as a 6-8 seater fits well in the front of the house, and/or works perfectly in the rear room off the kitchen. Down the hall, a utility room with storage and a perfect half bath are found on the right; while a truly unique breezeway/dogleg space is to your left - a handy space for parking bikes/strollers or growing herbs. The social kitchen hosts great cabinet space, stone countertops, sleek stainless appliances, and a pantry. A BONUS room beyond the kitchen offers options for dining, playroom, or a sunny office! This flex-space is adorned by a cool exposed brick wall and big windows with views to the fenced back patio.

Upstairs, the owners suite occupies the front of the home, equipped with a walk-in closet and private bathroom with two sinks and a tub. A middle bedroom with a coveted dogleg-window provides room for a double bed comfortably. In the rear, the third bedroom with exposed brick and beautiful sunlight allows space for an additional full or queen bed. A second full-bathroom with stand-up shower rounds out the top floor.

Duncan Place truly feels like a home with its own community within a greater city neighborhood; where neighbors spend their nights socializing under the streetlights watching kids and pets take to the block to enjoy company outdoors. Street parking comes easy on this private one-way. With a location equidistant to Lincoln Park and bustling H-Street, you'll find every city amenity you could hope for--playground, dog park, groceries, eateries, coffee--all within a short walk.
