Rare opportunity to own a modern two-unit property in Shaw/Truxton Circle. Live in one unit and generate rental income from the other, or operate both as investment units. Built in 2015, the property features two spacious duplex residences, a private backyard, a rooftop deck with Capitol views, and high-end finishes throughout. Unit 2 is vacant and move-in ready, while Unit 1 provides immediate rental income. Both units span two levels, showcasing impeccable design and luxury finishes throughout. On the main level, each features a chef’s kitchen complete with gleaming Quartz countertops, sleek Euro cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances complete with a wine fridge. A large kitchen island invites effortless entertaining, while the adjacent living and dining spaces are bathed in natural light, finished with a contemporary flair. A convenient powder room rounds out the main level. Unit 1’s upper level offers a grand primary suite with a spa-like bathroom featuring designer tiles, a glass-enclosed shower, and a double vanity. The secondary bedroom and bathroom maintain the same high-end finishes. Outside, a private terraced backyard creates the perfect retreat for outdoor dining and relaxation. Unit 2 impresses with a sunlit primary suite boasting a custom closet system and an exquisite bathroom with double vanities and a glass shower. The secondary bedroom, ideal for guests or a home office, is paired with a charming bathroom equipped with a soaking tub. To top it all off, the third-level roof deck steals the show, delivering breathtaking Capitol views, ample space for entertaining, and a custom DC mural that adds a unique touch. Just moments from Logan Circle, Downtown, Mount Vernon Triangle, CityCenter, and key commuter routes, this location puts shopping, dining, and essentials right at your doorstep. Street parking is a breeze in this neighborhood with ample spaces typically available. Whether you’re seeking a luxurious urban lifestyle or a prime investment, this property offers it all.
