1381 North Carolina Avenue Ne

Stop. Take a long view from a wide avenue, pause because if you hesitate at the wrought-iron gate, your breath will be taken, your eyes levitate, over blue-stone slate, fantasy landscape, a façade which merits major mention due to owner’s obsession with historic perfection, on a fairytale block, a hypnotic spot, you hadn’t insisted this be on your list since the combination so rarely exists, like inside, spaces gently divided, sunlight intensely provided, a very adult vibe, but hopelessly romantic, remarkably practical, yet socially magical, like the location, Lincoln Park for starters, Maury School study harder, H Streets’ beat beckons, Eastern Market harkens, a fraction of attractions, so many special places, conspiring to find you in an urban oasis.
