This 2-story Victorian (1881) townhouse in West Foggy Bottom sits on a nearly 100 ft. long lot with space to park 2 automobiles. Known as the historic John Casey House, this light-filled rowhouse includes 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms with tub/showers. With 9 historic-approved windows installed in the 2015 renovation, the house enjoys plenty of natural light. Both levels feature wood floors. The exterior was repainted during summer 2023 and the front door color was chosen from the Benjamin Moore Historic Color Collection. (Similarly, the bedroom closets are wallpapered with a historic pattern.) All of the entry doors in the house have Schlage electronic keypad locks for added security. A glass Pella door with glass transoms opens to the rear brick patio which is 240 sq. feet shaded by a Magnolia tree. North of the rear patio is a gate to the private parking and access to Snows Court. The large bay window on the front main elevation has a freshly glazed metal roof. The green features of the house include a rooftop solar panel system (17 panel Enphase system) that generates income-producing SRECs; there are also front and rear gardens. The main level of the house has a spacious living room, built-in bookcases, 10.4 ft high ceilings, an original fireplace, Eurofase lighting fixtures, a laundry room, and 2 storage closets. The dining room opens to the compact kitchen. The laundry room has an LG all-in-one washer/dryer. The upper floor features two bedrooms on opposite ends of the house to afford privacy. Some highlights of the upper floor are a walkout balcony overlooking the rear garden, a mid-century modern bathtub, stairs to the roof that provide additional storage space, and a south bedroom with 2 windows facing I Street. The renovated kitchen boasts a spacious granite countertop and the kitchen opens to the dining area. The townhouse is currently configured as 2 apartments, with separate HVAC systems, kitchens, and laundry rooms for each floor. The large lot could accommodate a rear extension of the Casey House to provide additional living space; the House could also be easily converted back to single-family usage. As a two-family house with a small foyer, an owner could live on one level and rent out the other level or use as in-law suite. The Casey House is only a 4 minute walk from the Foggy Bottom metro and the George Washington University campus. The House is an 11 minute walk from the Kennedy Center and the Potomac River.
