Property Description

Welcome to 5520 North Capitol Street NW, a fully reimagined 4-bedroom, 3-bath brick Colonial where timeless 1940s craftsmanship meets modern design and full-scale renovation. Rebuilt with today’s standards in mind, the home features brand-new systems throughout — including HVAC, roof, electrical, plumbing, and water heater — delivering the peace of mind today’s buyers expect. Step inside to a bright, open main level where gleaming hardwood floors and recessed lighting create a seamless flow between the living and dining areas. The layout feels intentional and effortless — designed for both elevated entertaining and comfortable everyday living. At the center of the home, the gourmet kitchen anchors the space with a generous island, custom caramel cabinetry, premium stone countertops, and modern fixtures. Clean lines and warm finishes strike the perfect balance between character and functionality, making it a true gathering space. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite offers a private retreat complete with a spa-inspired bath featuring contemporary tilework and sleek finishes. Two additional bedrooms and a well-appointed full bath provide flexibility for family, guests, or a dedicated home office. The fully finished lower level expands the home’s versatility even further, featuring a fourth bedroom, full bath, wet bar/kitchenette, and a separate rear entrance. Ideal for multi-generational living, extended guests, or rental income, this level offers a strategic opportunity to offset your mortgage while maintaining privacy and independence. Outside, a rare detached two-car garage along with additional off-street parking adds everyday convenience and long-term resale value — a feature few homes in the area can offer. Positioned along the North Capitol corridor with convenient access to Metro, Downtown DC, and major commuter routes into Maryland, the location delivers connectivity without compromise. Character. Flexibility. Brand-new systems. Income potential. Real parking. This is the kind of opportunity buyers wait for — and rarely find. Join us for our Brokers Open on March 3rd from 4–7 PM, featuring catered food, live DJ, and a high-energy launch experience.
