Prepare to be captivated by this extraordinary residence, a premier two-level condo set within a historic church, named for Reverend Madison Lewis who selected the site and oversaw the church’s construction in 1880. Moments from the heart of Capitol Hill, Lincoln Park, and Eastern Market, this 2-bedroom + den, 2-bath home showcases timeless architecture blended with modern luxury, highlighted by soaring two-story cathedral ceilings and oversized church windows. Step inside to the dramatic living room, where herringbone wood floors, abundant natural light, and breathtaking scale create an unforgettable first impression. The designer kitchen is equally impressive, featuring a wood-toned island, custom tile backsplash, and sleek quartz countertops. Just down the hall, a spacious guest bedroom with en suite bath offers both comfort and style with striking tile work and high-end finishes.

Upstairs, an open loft-style den provides the perfect work-from-home retreat, with a private deck that captures the charm of the Hill and sets the scene for crisp fall evenings. The true showpiece is the expansive primary suite, offering a serene spa-like bath and wide proportions that deliver both comfort and grandeur. Thoughtful amenities complete the offering: a secure gated entrance, private entry for each home, a spire repurposed as a mailroom for safe package delivery, and a shared patio for grilling and entertaining. A rare opportunity to own a piece of D.C. history reimagined for modern living, this one-of-a-kind home is the opportunity of the season.
