Perched atop one of the most bucolic hills of Columbia Heights, this Wardman rowhouse represents the best of his iconic Washingtonian architectural style while nodding to the Spanish flourishes for which he is famous. The white facade and playful red tile roofline –expertly obscuring the home's income generating solar panels – suggest something exotic, while classical. Sturdy and efficient with a hint of grandeur, 2530 13th Street is built for entertaining. Up a set of bluestone steps separating it from the wide sidewalk, through the landscaped garden up to the generous covered porch, you will begin to imagine your guests enjoying themselves for an afternoon of cocktails and conversation overlooking the wide boulevard below. The airy breadth of the first floor draws your eye into the parlor outfitted with a giant original window from which the eastern sun floods. The stair hall beyond offers the perfect place to gather by the fireplace. The original staircase grants access to the bedrooms above while a paneled door hides neat access to the in-law suite below. Spanning the width of the home and accented by another large window, the dining room provides ample space for meals and enjoyment and presents the perfect transition into the breathtaking kitchen and elegantly tucked away half bath.
Top of the line stainless steel appliances and oversized double waterfall island punctuate a contemporary and timeless layout spanning the length of the space. The Wolf gas cooktop will dazzle home cooks while the matching and seamlessly concealed ceiling hood ventilates without obscuring the sightline. Two wall ovens, a built-in under counter microwave, massive side by side Sub-Zero refrigerator and freezer, and custom pantry allow for luxe and grand scale entertaining. A wall of windows folds away to reveal a spacious deck, flagstone patio, and access to the newly finished parking pad. Parking for two cars or more space for entertaining is secured with a remote-controlled garage door. Upstairs you'll find a bright and airy primary suite flooded with natural light from large east-facing windows and serviced by an updated and decidedly contemporary bath lit from a skylight above. Down the bright hall you'll find two additional bedrooms, a generous hall bath with two large southern-facing windows and original clawfoot tub, the convenient laundry room, and a walk-up attic with additional storage space. Why not turn it into your art studio or yoga space? It doesn't end there! The entire lower level provides versatility for any use that complements your lifestyle. Currently, it's outfitted as an income-producing space with separate entrance, kitchenette, full bathroom, and second washer and dryer. It's the perfect spot for Airbnb, an in-law suite, or recreation room. Earn income from top to bottom - from the solar panels on the roof to the flex space down below. This home features valued upgrades including new AC and water heater.
