  • 1326 Girard Street NW #3 — $899,900 — Columbia Heights
    Open Sat. 1-3 p.m. — Fernando Garcia
    “Every so often there comes that unique property that can make you feel as though you’ve just spotted a dazzling unicorn amid the otherwise boring brush. Welcome to Girard Crossing, specifically unit No. 3. While you might get distracted by the intricate-brickwork artistry of this gloriously storied mansion’s facade — somewhat hidden behind the timeless magnolia and cheery maples — do step inside and make your way up the polished staircase to our unicorn. In this exclusive Elysium of a mere seven units, the entire third floor is yours. To the left, your private storage unit; ahead, step into your home. Immediately, you are soothed by the soft embrace of resplendent natural light from northern and eastern exposures, complemented, deeper in, by light from the south and west. The warm Brazilian-cherry floors further enhance the invitation to explore this magical space, as your eyes pass from exposed brick to the whimsical rounded turret to the painstakingly restored period mantel and hearth, housing a gas fireplace. Warmth aside, you’ll likely also be struck by the abundance of space and soaring ceilings as you make your way into unit No. 3. Pass by the ample dining area, and the kitchen is ready with its own list of exciting amenities. There’s the nearly new refrigerator, gas stove, and refurbished island — a bit of old Tampa tobacco history. This kitchen also boasts what so many of its newer contemporaries lack: a walk-in pantry! Abundant storage throughout — to include some Elfa organizing — is another nod to this handsome home’s practicality.”
