Two-bedroom Hill East home with screened-in porch and Anacostia River views asks $599K

Sitting on a tree-lined street at the southern tip of Hill East, this two-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom blue brick rowhouse looks out to the Anacostia River and boasts an updated kitchen graced by a working fireplace. The sellers say Fourth of July fireworks are easy to see from the front of the house, which recently entered the market for $599,999. The address is 1360 L St. SE.

There are wood floors throughout, and in the back, an expansive screened-in porch offers a tranquil place to relax or entertain. It comes with an overhead fan and skylights. Behind the porch, the fenced backyard includes a brick patio, raised garden beds, and a big storage shed. The Potomac Avenue Metro station and bus routes are a little over five minutes away by foot.

The upstairs level includes a washer/dryer unit and a walk-in shower. The home, which is on a more than 1,500-square-foot land lot, last sold in 2009 for $385,000, public records show. Amanda Briggs with Fulcrum Properties Group is serving as the listing agent. Open houses are currently set for March 23 and 24 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.—on both Saturday and Sunday.
