Top Two Floors 2BR/2BA Condo in Historic Row House Conversion – Private Outdoor Space + Parking | Capitol Hill East Take a Stroll Down Bay Street… There’s something magical about Bay Street in springtime. As the trees bloom into full canopy, their branches stretch over the sidewalk like nature’s own cathedral ceiling. The sun filters through the leaves in soft dapples, front porches come to life with rocking chairs and coffee mugs, and the block hums with a quiet charm that feels more small-town than city. Tucked into the heart of Capitol Hill East, this one-block stretch of Bay Street SE is one of D.C.’s best-kept secrets — a leafy, neighborly lane where every home has a story to tell. Welcome to 1732 Bay Street SE, Unit #1 — the upper residence in a beautifully restored historic row house, thoughtfully converted into just two boutique condos. Spanning the top two floors, this 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home lives like a private rowhouse with its own front and back entrances, no neighbors above, and the kind of indoor-outdoor flow that invites you to linger a little longer. Step inside and you’ll feel the blend of old and new — exposed brick, warm hardwood floors, and original architectural details paired with a modern, open-concept kitchen featuring stainless steel appliances and stone countertops. It’s the perfect space for hosting friends or enjoying a peaceful evening in. Upstairs, natural light pours through six skylights, casting a golden glow on the high ceilings of the primary suite, both full bathrooms, and hallway. Each bedroom offers privacy and comfort with its own en-suite bath, and the primary also opens to a private rear deck — just right for morning coffee or quiet evenings. There’s in-unit laundry, central A/C, and off-street parking — rare comforts at this price point. Bay Street’s Hidden Charm Bay Street SE is more than a place to live — it’s a place to belong. With just 46 homes, this charming, tree-lined block is like a pocket-sized village within Capitol Hill East. It’s the kind of street where neighbors greet you by name, where kids ride bikes in the late afternoon sun, and where the sidewalk feels like an extension of your front porch. Originally laid out in the early 1900s, Bay Street has kept its timeless feel even as the neighborhood around it has grown and evolved. Today, it’s just a short walk to the Stadium-Armory Metro (Blue/Orange/Silver lines) and a stone’s throw from local favorites like The Roost, Safeway, The Pretzel Bakery, and Eastern Market. The coming RFK Stadium redevelopment promises even more to look forward to — new parks, playing fields, retail, and community space that will only add to the appeal. This top-floor condo offers a rare opportunity to own a slice of history with all the benefits of thoughtful updates, community charm, and long-term value in one of D.C.’s most vibrant, up-and-coming neighborhoods.
