1154 18th Avenue E

Ideally located in North Capitol Hill, this Craftsman home blends historic character with stylish modern living. Extensively and tastefully improved by the current owners over the past decade, thoughtful updates respect and complement the home's original architecture. Beautiful, intricate details abound, including box-beamed ceilings, oak hardwood floors with mahogany inlay, designer paint and wallpaper, vintage lighting, and custom leaded glass. A grand wood-burning fireplace anchors the living room, while an adjoining room with built-in bookcases is equally inviting as a den, library, or formal dining room. The spacious eat-in kitchen features a generous island, abundant cabinetry, GE Cafe and Bosch appliances, and radiant heated floors. Upstairs are four bedrooms, two with private balconies, and an updated full bath. A skylight brightens the central stairway. The finished lower level features oak hardwoods, a recreation room, bedroom nook, office, kitchenette, workshop, laundry, and bath with spa shower--ideal for guests or potential MIL suite. Extensive upgrades to heating, plumbing, and electrical systems, along with added insulation, fiber internet, and an EV charger, enhance comfort and convenience. Professionally landscaped grounds, a covered front porch, and a detached 1-car garage off the alley complete the setting. Just blocks from Volunteer Park, shops, restaurants, and cafes, this home combines architectural richness, modern livability, and a coveted location.
