Welcome to 2228 S Street NE—where classic DC charm meets contemporary comfort in one of the city’s most dynamic neighborhoods. Where value meets convenience. Thoughtfully expanded and fully renovated in 2019, this 3BR, 3BA home offers over 2,000 sq ft of beautifully designed living space. The open layout flows effortlessly from a picture-perfect living room—complete with a whitewashed fireplace and oversized window—into a European-inspired kitchen with waterfall-edge quartz counters, sleek black cabinetry, stainless appliances, and island seating. Upstairs, two bedrooms were expanded for extra space and comfort. Both full baths upstairs are updated with timeless finishes. The finished lower level adds a third bedroom and third full bath, ideal for guests, a home office, or private suite—with room to relax. Out back, a fenced yard shaded by two crape myrtles offers a peaceful space to unwind or host friends on the patio. Custom stair rails, wide-plank floors, and curated design touches set this home apart—there’s truly nothing else like it in the neighborhood. Walk MBT Trail and a short bike ride to Union Market. Just minutes to the National Arboretum, Union Market, and Metro-accessible shopping and dining like Ivy City SmokeHouse, Gravitas Restaurant, Planet Fitness, and other venues like Throw Social for axe throwing. A rare find in a quiet, hidden pocket of The Arboretum neighborhood. • Expanded 3BR, 3BA across 2,007 finished sq ft • Fully renovated in 2020 with high-end finishes • Light-filled living room with fireplace and picture window • Designer kitchen with quartz island and gas range • Finished lower level with private entry and full suite • Fenced yard with patio under crape myrtles • Street parking on a peaceful residential block
