Georgetown "Diamond-In-The-Rough" - $1,300,000

Welcome to 1511 28th St., N.W.!

This is a sturdy survivor in the 1500 block of 28th Street in the East Village of Georgetown. This home was likely built in 1885. The building permits were issued in October 1884. Not on the market since 1974, this 3-bedroom row house is waiting for your personal touches to highlight the classic elements and blend in the best of today’s modern standards. This home has some very unique Chinese characteristics. There are hanzi characters on the front of the house, and the entrance is guarded by two elaborate Foo Dogs that are believed to have powerful mythic protective benefits. The sale of this home is to settle the affairs of the estate of the past owner. As such, this sale will be strictly an “As-Is” sale. But as you will see from the photos, the house is eminently livable. Below is complete floor plan for this home.

Please note: All photos that show furnishings and decorations are rendered digitally to give potential buyers a sense of what this home could look like. The house is currently vacant and has just been completely repainted and cleaned.  Also note: the area marked as the "Family Room" in the Lower Level was at one time a large garage. The owner was insistent that the curb cut and driveway be maintained over her years of ownership to allow for the potential reinstatement of the garage. A photo of this space is at the end of this blog. It is believed that the use of the garage can be reinstated, but as with ANY exterior changes that a homeowner would like to make, and this applies to any homeowner in Georgetown, required approvals would need to be obtained from the local ANC and other local government entities. No guarantees can be made with respect to this reinstatement.
