Executive Summary
918 8th St NE is a four-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath row house situated in the Capitol Hill NE neighborhood of Washington, DC. Built in 1917, the home carries the architectural character typical of early-twentieth-century Capitol Hill construction. The property was acquired with Wardman Residential representing the buyer at $725,000. Its position on 8th Street NE places it within easy reach of the H Street corridor, Eastern Market, and multiple Metro lines serving the broader Capitol Hill submarket.
A Capitol Hill Row House With Century-Old Character
918 8th St NE is a four-bedroom row house in the Capitol Hill NE neighborhood, a section of DC where early-twentieth-century residential architecture remains largely intact. The home was built in 1917 and reflects the scale and massing common to the block-by-block streetscape that defines this part of NE.
The layout accommodates three full baths and one half bath across four bedrooms, providing meaningful flexibility for a range of living arrangements. Row houses of this vintage on Capitol Hill tend to offer generous ceiling heights, front stoops, and the kind of spatial proportions that newer construction rarely replicates.
The surrounding blocks connect easily to the H Street corridor to the north and Eastern Market to the south, placing everyday dining, retail, and transit options within a walkable radius. The Union Station Metro hub is accessible by foot or a short ride, linking the home to the broader DC Metro system.
Wardman Residential represented the buyer in this transaction at $725,000, bringing local submarket knowledge to the acquisition process in one of DC’s most historically consistent residential neighborhoods.
