A Rare Expression of New Construction on Capitol Hill Some Capitol Hill homes offer location. Others offer space. A very select few offer both—along with a private backyard, detached carriage house, and garage parking. 235 12th Street SE is one of those rare properties. Set in the heart of Capitol Hill, just one block from Lincoln Park and four blocks from Eastern Market, this exceptional new-construction residence delivers a level of space, privacy, and flexibility that is extraordinarily difficult to find in the neighborhood. Behind its elegant brick façade is a thoughtfully designed three-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath home where sophisticated finishes meet effortless city living. The main level is designed for both intimate evenings and memorable entertaining, with wide-plank hardwood floors, oversized windows, and a gracious flow from the light-filled living room into the dining area and chef’s kitchen. The kitchen is truly the centerpiece, appointed with a professional gas range and pot filler, built-in water dispenser, microwave drawer, wine refrigerator, and built-in espresso maker—a space equally suited to a quiet morning or an evening with friends. French doors open directly to the private, fenced backyard, creating a rare indoor-outdoor connection in the heart of Capitol Hill. It is an ideal setting for morning coffee, summer dinners, or simply enjoying a little breathing room that is increasingly hard to come by in the city. Upstairs, each of the three bedrooms enjoys its own en-suite bath, providing an exceptional level of privacy for family and guests. The primary suite is a true retreat, featuring a gas fireplace, wet bar, custom walk-in closet with window, and French doors opening to a private balcony. Two additional en-suite bedrooms offer generous closets and beautifully appointed baths, while a concealed washer and dryer add discreet everyday convenience. Smart dimmers, LED mirrors, and integrated surround sound are thoughtful details throughout. Then comes one of the home's most extraordinary features: the detached carriage house and garage. Secure off-street parking is a luxury in Capitol Hill; having it accompanied by a separate, finished carriage house is exceptionally rare. With a kitchenette, beverage refrigerator, and full bathroom, the flexible upper-level space is ideal for visiting guests, a private home office, creative studio, or simply a dedicated retreat. Whether hosting a full house or welcoming out-of-town visitors, there is room for everyone—and no need to worry about where anyone will park. And the location makes everyday life remarkably easy. Lincoln Park is one block away. Eastern Market is four blocks away. Barracks Row, neighborhood restaurants, coffee shops, Metro, and the best of Capitol Hill are all within easy reach. Capitol Hill living is at its most effortless here, with the newly reopened Mott’s Market adding a charming local touch to the neighborhood with a coffee bar, made-to-order gourmet sandwiches, and ice cream. This is Capitol Hill living at its most complete: new construction, three en-suite bedrooms, private outdoor space, a detached carriage house, garage parking, and an extraordinary location surrounded by the neighborhood’s best amenities. Properties offering this combination of features and location are exceptionally rare. Welcome to 235 12th Street SE.

An extraordinary and rare opportunity in the heart of Capitol Hill: a fully permitted, shovel-ready development site comprising two adjacent record lots totaling approximately 2,253 square feet, approved for the construction of two brand-new two-unit residential buildings.<br><br> The current owner has invested more than a year and significant resources assembling a complete, approved permit package covering full architectural, structural, civil, and MEP engineering drawings. Permits have been issued for the razing of the existing 1951 brick structure and adjacent vacant lot, and construction permits for the two new buildings are in hand. A qualified contractor or developer can break ground without delay.<br><br> The plans call for two three-story buildings, each with a lower level apartment, rising to 35 feet on their respective lots. Each building is designed as a two-family flat, yielding four total residential units across the two lots, with approximately 2,700 square feet of finished space per building across lower level, first, second, and third floors.<br><br> The location is among the most coveted in Washington for residential development. The site sits just behind Eastern Market and is convenient to the Library of Congress, Barracks Row restaurants, House office buildings, public parks, and the Capitol itself. The Eastern Market Metro station, serving the Blue, Orange, and Silver Lines, is approximately an 11-minute walk, and Capitol Hill ranks as the 14th most walkable neighborhood in Washington with a Walk Score of 88.<br><br> Capitol Hill townhomes regularly clear seven figures, and the DC housing market remains competitive, with inventory staying lean. New construction on Capitol Hill is genuinely rare, as the neighborhood is dominated by historic rowhouses and opportunities to build all-new structures are uncommon. For a contractor or developer seeking a turnkey entry into one of DC's most enduringly desirable neighborhoods, this is the opportunity. All plans, permits, and raze approvals convey with the sale.
