Description

Nestled in the heart of Butchertown, this classic brick shotgun showcases signature neighborhood charm, complete with the coveted covered side porch that defines many homes in the East Washington Street corridor. While the exterior reflects the home’s 100-plus-year history, step inside and prepare to be amazed by a brilliantly reimagined interior—beautiful, functional, and thoughtfully designed with features rarely found in homes of this era. A vestibuled entry welcomes you into a light-filled interior highlighted by 12-foot ceilings, high-profile baseboard moldings, refinished original wide pine flooring, and much of the home’s original hardware. Plantation shutters frame the replacement windows, while perfectly curated designer lighting throughout adds warmth and style to every room. The kitchen is a true showstopper, blending historic character with exceptional modern upgrades. An exposed brick wall and barn wood shelves preserve an original architectural feature, while marble countertops, a center island, and white cabinetry extending to the ceiling create a bright, timeless look. High-end functionality abounds with rollout drawers, drawer stacks, a space cabinet, under-cabinet lighting, and an extra-deep single-bowl sink. Anchoring the space is a stunning F. Bertazzoni Italia 36″ five-burner range with matching hood—a dream for any home chef. This two-bedroom, two full-bath home offers a layout that balances charm with comfort. The primary suite is truly exceptional. The spacious bedroom provides direct access to the covered side porch, creating a peaceful retreat. Connected is a 16′ x 12′ dressing room that feels more like a boutique dressing suite, complete with a stone-topped center vanity, six closets including a walk-in, and a convenient stackable washer and dryer closet. The luxurious primary bathroom is designed with spa-level finishes, featuring a custom glass shower, a perfectly sized vintage-style soaking tub, two vanities, a separate water closet, and marble wall and floor tile with classic lisetto detail. The second bedroom offers generous closet space and features a beautiful glass transom window above the door, another thoughtfully preserved detail. The second full bathroom, located near the front entry, is equally impressive with a glass shower and marble tile, creating a cohesive and elevated feel throughout the home. Perhaps the most unexpected feature of all is the inground pool—yes, an inground pool! One of only a few in the neighborhood, it creates a private outdoor retreat rarely found in Butchertown homes. Parking is never an issue thanks to the 2.5-car garage, which was thoughtfully constructed with the intention of adding future living space above with the addition of a dormer. With EZ-1 zoning offering exceptional flexibility and potential, this property presents opportunities rarely found in the area. Without question, this home is special—a rare Butchertown find where historic architecture meets sophisticated modern living, all wrapped in a beautifully restored brick shotgun that is truly one of a kind.
