Property Location
About 326 12th St SE
The home at 326 12th St SE is a Capitol Hill row house constructed in 1900, offering 1,636 square feet of interior space across three bedrooms and one and a half baths. The structure reflects the traditional DC row house form — a building type that has defined Capitol Hill’s residential character for well over a century. Assigned surface parking accompanies the property, a feature that distinguishes this home from many comparable row houses in the immediate area.
Capitol Hill SE occupies the southeastern quadrant of the Hill, bounded by the Capitol grounds to the north and the Anacostia waterfront to the south and east. The neighborhood is anchored by Eastern Market — one of DC’s oldest continuously operating public markets — and Lincoln Park, a significant open green space along East Capitol Street. Pennsylvania Avenue SE provides a walkable retail and dining corridor serving the surrounding residential blocks.
Day-to-day life on this part of the Hill centers on walkable access to neighborhood staples: the Eastern Market hall and weekend farmers market, local cafes and restaurants along Barracks Row and Pennsylvania Avenue SE, and the Eastern Branch Trail for cycling and recreation along the Anacostia. The Capitol South and Eastern Market Metro stations on the Blue and Orange lines place downtown DC within a short commute. The neighborhood’s street grid and transit access make car-free or car-light living a practical option.
