Overview
Spectacular one-of-a-kind residence with $6,000 monthly income from two legal rental units in separate carriage house. This stunning Second Empire-style home, designed by renowned architect James McGill, once served as a vibrant retreat for Howard Theater performers. Spectacular original details are throughout the main house including original crown moldings, plaster medallions, and restored wood windows. This is an entertainer’s paradise with gracious living and dining rooms. The gourmet eat-in kitchen opens to the cozy family room with the second gas fireplace. The second-floor primary suite has a spa-like en-suite bath, charming office/home gym, and enormous walk-in closet. There is also a second-floor laundry room and a one-bedroom in-law suite, accessible from the second floor hallway or direct outside access. The third floor is comprised of a guest suite with a substantial sitting room. The unfinished basement offers tons of storage and plenty of space for a workroom. Solar panels on the roof provide FREE electricity and the multi-zone heat and Central A/C are efficient while keeping every area comfortable. Only two blocks to the Green/Yellow Lines for easy access to the entire city. Five parking spaces in rear (two are currently rented), with an electric vehicle charger, complete this perfect picture. NOTE: The two legal rental apartments (2BR/1BA and 1BR/Den/1.5BA) are NOT INCLUDED in the room counts. The total rental income is $6,000/month, which will cover almost a one third of a mortgage (with 20% down). With its rich past, exquisite architectural details, and thoughtful updates, 525 T Street NW is a rare gem in the heart of Ledroit Park. Don’t miss the opportunity to own this historic masterpiece.
