Property Description

639 E Street SE is more than a home — it’s a statement of design and craftsmanship, offering 4,500 square feet across three beautifully finished levels. At almost 23 foot wide and with a 100 foot deep lot - this one is special. Totally rebuilt, only the front facade remains, by the outstanding team of Horizon/Alliance Builders and designed by Christian Zapatka, the residence features 4 bedrooms plus an office and 4.5 baths, with every bedroom offering both a walk-in closet and an ensuite bath. Landscaped front gardens, architectural garden walls, and custom steel-and-mahogany gates create an elegant introduction. Inside, wide-plank rift- and quarter-sawn white oak floors lead through sun-filled spaces finished with meticulous detail. The great room showcases heated floors and custom Kolbe bifold doors spanning the rear façade, opening to a private terrace framed by mature Ginkgo trees and creating seamless indoor–outdoor living. At the heart of the home is its celebrated and award-winning Snaidero kitchen, pairing Italian cabinetry with a dramatic waterfall island and professional-grade Sub-Zero, Wolf, and Miele appliances. Stone backsplashes, floating shelving, integrated lighting, and carefully selected hardware highlight the pursuit of perfection. The primary suite offers a serene retreat with a luxurious bath featuring a Victoria & Albert soaking tub, Waterworks rain shower, honed stone finishes, and Lutron-controlled shades. Secondary suites continue the elevated palette with thoughtfully designed tile and high-end fixtures. Thoughtful design extends throughout the home — from custom library shelving and built-in reading spaces to a beautifully outfitted laundry room and multiple areas for relaxation and entertaining. Outdoor living includes a bluestone terrace, drought-tolerant landscaping, and a rear terrace that can double as private parking. All of this is set in one of Capitol Hill’s most desirable locations, just a block from Eastern Market and Barracks Row, and a short stroll to the U.S. Capitol, Supreme Court, Lincoln Park, the Navy Yard waterfront, shops, restaurants, parks, and Metro, with easy access to I-695 and downtown.
