409 E Capitol St SE, Washington, DC, 20003
About This Home
Rare Capitol Hill redevelopment opportunity just blocks from Eastern Market. This 1,746 SF two-story property offers exceptional value-add potential for investors, developers, or owner-users. The first floor features an open layout with an existing half bath and plumbing, while the second floor includes a two-bedroom, one-bath residence. The current owner has already invested significant time, capital, and professional resources into the property’s redevelopment, including approvals for 60% lot occupancy and a third-story addition, all of which will transfer to the next owner—allowing you to build on years of planning rather than start from scratch. Lockbox on site. Contact the listing agent for the lockbox code, redevelopment documents, and additional information.
