Originally built in 1900, this classic DC rowhouse was reimagined and comprehensively restored by the current owners. Respect for the character of the house melded with a focus on eco-conscious luxury and home performance has created the perfect city home.
Soaring ceilings, calming light-filled spaces and an outdoor oasis can all be found only a stone?s throw from the popular restaurants, shops and retailers on the 14th and U Street corridors. From the kitchen and baths to all appliances and mechanical systems, no expense was spared in recent remodeling and updating. The home was converted from gas to fully electric, with top-of-the-line HVAC and mechanicals, and with power generated from the rooftop solar panel array (8.74 kW).
Further outstanding features of 1316 T Street NW include a ridiculously sized, 700 sq. ft garage that can accommodate 4 vehicles plus stored items and a parking pad; a professionally designed and landscaped private back yard with Brazilian teak deck, flagstone patio, custom lighting, and new retaining walls; new wide-panel Brazilian oak hardwood floors throughout the main and second levels; and custom handmade (oak) built-ins within the living room.
Additional updates include but are not limited to:
Kitchen: fully renovated with all new tile, cabinets, counter tops and appliances with an induction cooktop and professional range hood with external blower.
Baths: all fully renovated with radiant heat in second floor.
Dining Room: Oversized 8-feet sliding doors that flow seamlessly to the private deck and rear terrace.
Overall: Deep energy retrofit with foam air sealing, new attic insulation and HVAC aeroseal. Exterior augmented with irrigation and drainage systems in the front and back. Kitchen bump out was restored and updated to include a new roof, zip sheathing, insulation, skylight, Hardie siding and additional insulation throughout.
Please note: While the home is not a historic landmark, it is located in the Greater U Street Historic District
