Property Location

About 507 15th St SE

507 15th Street SE is a Capitol Hill row house constructed in 1902, offering 1,348 square feet of interior space across two stories. The home includes two bedrooms, two full baths, and one half bath, a configuration well-suited to the scale of the building. Row houses of this vintage on Capitol Hill are characterized by their brick construction, defined room layouts, and the kind of architectural detail that newer construction rarely replicates.

Capitol Hill SE is one of Washington DC’s most recognizable and historically continuous residential neighborhoods. The area is anchored by Eastern Market, a working public market operating since 1873, and Lincoln Park, one of the larger green spaces on the Hill. The neighborhood’s street grid and row house fabric have remained largely intact, giving 15th Street SE a sense of place that is both historic and genuinely functional for daily life.

Day-to-day life on Capitol Hill SE is oriented around walkability. Eastern Market and its surrounding blocks offer grocery options, coffee, dining, and weekend farmers market activity within easy reach of 15th Street. The Capitol South and Eastern Market Metro stations provide direct access to downtown DC and beyond, and the neighborhood’s flat terrain and connected sidewalks make it a practical address for those who prefer to move through the city on foot or by bike.

Frequently Asked Questions About This Property

Key details about the residence, building, and location to help you evaluate this opportunity.

Capitol Hill SE row houses represent some of the most intact late-Victorian and Edwardian residential architecture in Washington DC. Built primarily between the 1880s and 1910s, these homes feature brick construction, defined room layouts, and a scale that has proven durable across generations. The neighborhood’s historic district protections help preserve the character of the streetscape.
At 1,348 square feet with two bedrooms and two and a half baths, this home sits within the mid-range of Capitol Hill row house configurations. The 1902 construction date places it among the earlier examples of the Hill’s residential stock. Comparable sales in this corridor vary meaningfully by block, condition, and finish level, which is why block-level market knowledge matters.
The Capitol South and Eastern Market Metro stations, both on the Blue and Silver lines, are the closest options to 15th Street SE. Both provide direct service to downtown DC, Reagan National Airport, and connections across the broader Metro network. The area is also well-served by DC bus routes.
The blocks surrounding 15th Street SE are highly walkable by Capitol Hill standards. Eastern Market, with its daily vendors and weekend farmers market, is accessible on foot, as are the dining and retail options along Pennsylvania Avenue SE and Barracks Row. Lincoln Park provides nearby green space without requiring a car.
Parking in Capitol Hill SE is primarily street-based, with residential permit parking zones governing most blocks. Dedicated off-street parking is less common in row houses of this vintage and size. Buyers should confirm current parking conditions and permit zone designations for this specific block.
Homes of this age carry both character and complexity. Buyers should anticipate the possibility of older mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems, and a thorough home inspection by an inspector experienced with historic DC row houses is strongly recommended. Understanding what has been updated versus original is essential to evaluating the property accurately.
507 15th Street SE is a single-family row house, not a condominium, so there is no condo association or monthly HOA fee associated with the property. Owners are responsible for their own maintenance and upkeep, which is typical for Capitol Hill row houses of this type.
The Wardman Residential team at Compass has direct experience advising buyers in the Capitol Hill SE submarket, including row house acquisitions at various price points and conditions. We can provide recent comparable sales, context on block-level pricing variation, and guidance through the offer and due diligence process. Reach out to connect with a team member familiar with this corridor.
