A rare Capitol Hill opportunity offering classic character, a spacious backyard, room to grow, and no condo or HOA fees—all for under $600K. Welcome to 1527 K Street SE, a charming two-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath rowhome offering approximately 900 square feet across two levels. Built in 1949, the home features an inviting main-level living space, a convenient powder room, and a kitchen with direct access to the backyard. Upstairs are two comfortable bedrooms and a full bathroom. Fully electric and updated where it matters most, the home benefits from major capital improvements completed between 2023 and 2025, including a new roof, upgrades to its mechanical systems, new appliances, and service lines. The expansive backyard featuring waterfront views of the Anacostia River offers space for a private patio, garden, or outdoor entertaining retreat, while rear alley access provides the potential to add off-street parking. Enjoy the home as it is, or take advantage of its RA-2 zoning and matter-of-right expansion potential to create that perfect sunroom, additional bedroom, or expanded living space. Just moments from the Potomac Avenue Metro, The Roost, neighborhood dining, shopping, and grocery stores, the home also offers easy access to Eastern Market, the Anacostia Riverwalk Trail, and I-395. With a Walk Score of nearly 90, this location delivers the connectivity that makes Capitol Hill living so desirable. The planned RFK Campus redevelopment, including the future Washington Commanders stadium, adds to the neighborhood’s long-term appeal. With major improvements already completed, generous outdoor space, opportunity for private parking, and plenty of room for expansion, 1527 K Street SE offers a compelling entry into Capitol Hill East.
