1401 Monroe St NE

It’s not hard to imagine the comfort of everyday life in this spacious 4BD/3.5BA home perched on a quiet corner in Brookland. There’s the expansive front porch for starters, paved in flagstone and perfect for enjoying your favorite beverage on pleasant days. Once inside, a foyer greets you with its impressive staircase and opens onto a main level made bright and airy thanks to high ceilings and warm with original pine floors. There’s a gas fireplace in the living room, and the dining room faces an open kitchen with island, breakfast bar for on-the-go meals, and lots of cabinet space. Step out onto the generous back porch and relish hill-top views of the surrounding neighborhood. Upstairs are three bedrooms, including a spectacular primary bedroom that feels like a luxury suite. There, you’ll find a walk-in closet and sitting room, plus a spa-like bathroom with dual sinks, shower, and tub. Need space for a home office? You could easily convert one of the other bedrooms into the den of your dreams. The basement level makes the perfect in-law suite, with a living room, full kitchen and bathroom, bedroom nook, and private entrance. Live just a few blocks from the excitement of the 12th Street Corridor, the Brookland-CUA Metro Station, the Franciscan Monastery Gardens, Monroe Street Market, and more.
