Overview
**FIRST OPEN HOUSE: SAT (6/15) 1-3PM** Welcome to 708 5th St SE, a three-bedroom brick rowhome perfectly located in sought-after Capitol Hill and the Brent Elementary School district! This updated 3BR + DEN (4th BR)/2.5BA three-level rowhome features lovely curb appeal with mature landscaping and perennial flowers, an open and airy floor plan, hardwood floors, and floods of natural light from the several windows and large skylights throughout the home. The main level of the home features a spacious living and dining space, plus a powder room that is ideal for guests. You'll enjoy preparing your favorite meal or entertaining in the gourmet kitchen with stainless steel appliances, built-in filtered water faucet, warm modern cabinetry, granite countertops, and a large island for additional storage and cooking space.
