Bring your vision and explore the plethora of possibilities awaiting you at 1706 Bay St SE. This property is a hidden gem in this Capitol Hill neighborhood, featuring 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms on 2 levels. The lot itself is slightly elevated, with a fenced front yard and expansive backyard. Live easy without the burden of Hoa bylaws, ever-increasing condo fees, or Historic property restrictions. Perfect for the buyer looking for a “build-to-suit”, fee simple, residential property in the District as the possibility of excavating for a basement, adding a third level or extending the rear of the home are not out of reach. While this home does require some TLC and renovations, the potential is undeniable. An untouched blank canvas of a quintessential D.C. rowhome featuring 1,840 square feet in a sought-after corner of the District is an investment that should be on your must-see list today!
