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.

The home includes three full baths and one half bath, a layout that reflects the generous spatial planning common to Capitol Hill row house construction of that era.

Frequently Asked Questions About This Property

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

Capitol Hill NE contains some of DC’s most intact blocks of early-twentieth-century row house construction, with consistent brick facades, front stoops, and proportional room layouts. Homes built in this era tend to offer ceiling heights and spatial character that newer construction does not replicate. The neighborhood’s historic designation helps preserve that architectural consistency over time.
Four-bedroom row houses represent a larger-than-average configuration for Capitol Hill, where many historic homes were built as two- and three-bedroom structures. A four-bedroom layout at this price point offers meaningful space relative to what the submarket typically provides. The three full baths and half bath further distinguish this home from more common two-bath configurations.
Union Station Metro, serving the Red Line, is accessible by foot or a short ride from 8th Street NE. Capitol South Metro on the Blue, Orange, and Silver Lines is also within the Capitol Hill walkable radius. Multiple Metrobus and DC Circulator routes serve the H Street and Capitol Hill corridors directly.
The H Street corridor is a concentrated commercial and dining strip running through Capitol Hill NE, known for its density of restaurants, bars, and independent retail. It sits to the north of 8th Street NE and is accessible on foot from this address. The corridor has been a central part of Capitol Hill NE’s commercial identity for well over a decade.
Parking details were not specified in the available property information for this home. Row houses on Capitol Hill NE blocks may include rear alley parking, a garage, or rely on residential street parking depending on the specific lot configuration. Buyers should confirm parking arrangements directly during due diligence.
Homes of this vintage can carry deferred maintenance considerations including older mechanical systems, original plumbing or electrical infrastructure, and period-specific construction materials. A thorough home inspection by an inspector experienced with historic DC row houses is strongly advisable. Buyers should budget for potential updates even when a home presents well on the surface.
