DON'T MISS THIS MCGILL! One of the few remaining James H McGill homes on "McGill Row" in historic LeDroit Park. **OFFER DEADLINE Thursday May 25th @ 5PM** This happy example of McGill's semi-detached homes offers 3 bedrooms and 1 bath up with lots of living space on the first floor, including a sunny, spacious dining room with oversized windows perfect for gatherings, holiday celebrations under the pretty chandi, and meals for loved ones and friends. There's a light-filled living room with big windows on two sides and beautiful hardwood floors. Grill, grow & play to your heart's content in the deep 3,780 SF lot with fenced, gated and landscaped rear yard featuring a custom grill, patio, and raised planting beds. The home's floors were recently restored and are in beautiful condition. Carry on the workshop tradition in the partial basement, or use it for storage and laundry. Many neighboring properties have excavated to add bonus/rental space, but there are multiple expansion options available for this home when the time is right. As seen in renovations of the two neighboring homes, a first-floor powder room can be added, the rear porch structure could become a two-story bump-out, a bath addition is possible on the 2nd floor, and the massive attic running nearly the length of the home with high vaulted ceilings can transform to a bonus suite, adding a 4th bedroom and 2nd full bath to the home (see 413 U photos). The adjoining home, recently renovated from a distressed state, is another example of the vast potential and value of the homes in found on this exceptional street. If you're looking for an very livable & affordable entry to 'McGill Row' in historic LeDroit Park to enjoy now, and upsize in the future, 415 U Street is a perfect fit! Popular LeDroit Park with its charming residential streets and amazing architecture offers close proximity to the shops, restaurants, entertainment and nightlife of Shaw, Bloomingdale, and U St Corridor,. Just a short stroll to the 14th St Corridor and serviced by the Shaw Metro Station's Green & Yellow lines. The LeDroit Park Historic District was originally a planned architecturally unified subdivision of substantial detached and semidetached houses designed by McGill and constructed by A. L. Barber & Co., mainly between 1873 and 1877. From the NATIONAL REGISTER OF HISTORIC PLACES c. 1974: "The McGill houses we're designed in the tradition of A.J. Downing f s Country Houses which first appeared in 1850 and, like the pattern-books, were designed in the style of Italian villas, Gothic cottages, and many variations in between. Illustrated in prospectuses published by the developer entitled, "LeDroit Park Illustrated" and the "Architectural Advertiser," the houses are depicted with varied facades and similar floor plans. They are described in the former brochure as follows: "These houses are built separately or in pairs, are nearly all of brick, are of varied designs...no two being alike, either in shape, style of finish or color of the exterior." "There is one block left in LeDroit Park which includes all of the original McGill houses and no intrusions. This is the 400 block of U Street, N.W."
