Thoughtfully and meticulously updated over nearly 30 years of ownership.

1877 Newton Street NW seamlessly blends historic charm with extensive modern improvements. This beautiful three-level row home showcases original architectural details, distinctive interior character, and inviting outdoor spaces, tucked back in a quiet corner of Mount Pleasant, just moments from Rock Creek Park.

The handsome and welcoming main level features beautifully refinished original chestnut trim and inlaid hardwood floors, and large south-facing windows that fill the space with natural light. A classic pocket door separates the formal living and dining rooms, leading to an updated powder room and a well-designed kitchen. Featuring Carrara marble countertops, stainless steel appliances, shaker-style cabinetry, built-in shelving, and an eat-in counter that doubles as generous prep and entertaining space, the kitchen strikes a perfect balance of style and functionality.

Just beyond, a covered rear porch opens to a spacious deck overlooking a landscaped backyard, with ample room to add parking if desired. Mature plantings in front and back of this gracious home include flowering gardenia and camellia, and climbing hydrangea and roses.

Upstairs, three full bedrooms include a sunlit south-facing primary and a chic renovated bath finished in marble and subway tile, surrounding a modern soaking tub and shower. A rear balcony offers treetop views toward Rock Creek Park, extending the home’s living experience outdoors.

Significant renovations have enhanced both comfort and infrastructure, including a fully reimagined lower level with an in-law suite, laundry area, and sauna, along with thoughtfully integrated lighting throughout. Comprehensive system upgrades — plumbing, electrical, heating, and cooling — combined with the addition of solar panels, support long-term efficiency and sustainability. Structural and exterior improvements, including masonry restoration, a rebuilt historically accurate front porch, roof updates, and lead pipe replacement, reflect a careful commitment to preserving the home’s longevity.

The result is a well-loved home that honors its historic character while delivering the comfort, efficiency, and reliability of modern living.

Enjoy close proximity to the National Zoo, the Mount Pleasant Farmers’ Market, beloved neighborhood dining, and Rock Creek Park’s trails. The home is just one block from Bancroft Elementary and in-bound for Deal MS and Jackson-Reed HS.
