Description

There’s living on Capitol Hill—and then there’s living in a historic schoolhouse where your home still carries the character of its past. At 901 D St. NE, Unit #207, you come home through the doors of the former Edmonds School and into a two-level residence where soaring ceilings, wide-plank hardwood floors, and an original brick archway create a sense of history you can feel. Afternoon light pours through oversized windows into the open living and dining area, making it just as easy to host friends for dinner as it is to curl up with a book and watch the city glow outside. The kitchen is open and inviting, with generous storage and natural light that makes everyday cooking feel a little more special, while a dedicated main-level office nook gives you a quiet place to work, create, or study without sacrificing the openness of the space.

Upstairs, the home settles into a calm, private retreat. The spacious primary suite feels like a true escape, with volume ceilings, a walk-in closet, and a spa-inspired five-piece bath where you can unwind at the end of the day. The second bedroom is equally welcoming, perfect for guests, a nursery, or a second workspace, with a full hall bath just outside the door. A full-size washer and dryer on the bedroom level makes laundry effortless, and recent updates—fresh paint in the main living areas and brand-new carpet in the primary suite—mean the home feels move-in ready from day one. Central heating and air, rich trim and casing details, and a dedicated parking space add everyday comfort and ease, while thoughtful building amenities—extra storage, bike storage, a shared outdoor deck, and pet-friendly living—round out the lifestyle.

Outside your front door, the best of Capitol Hill is at your feet. Morning walks can take you through leafy Lincoln Park, afternoons might mean a quick trip to Eastern Market for fresh produce, and evenings offer endless options along the H Street Corridor—from ramen at Toki Underground to cocktails at Maketto or modern Indian at Daru. Whole Foods and Giant are close enough to make errands simple, and with Union Station less than 10 minutes away, commuting or getting out of town is remarkably convenient. Unit #207 is more than just a beautiful condo—it’s a chance to live in a piece of D.C. history, with all the energy, convenience, and character that make this neighborhood so beloved.
