Columbia Heights Rowhouse Transformation

Our clients bought two adjacent rowhomes as investment properties, and we designed and completed a gut renovation of each property. Both homes have two units and near-identical floor plans; a 2-bedroom, 2 bath unit in the basement and a larger “primary” unit with 5 bedrooms and 3 ½ baths taking up the top three floors. This project includes a 3rd-floor addition and a rear addition across the back. This gut remodel creates contemporary living on the bustling 13th street corridor in the sought-after Columbia Heights neighborhood. Light and airy finishes were used throughout. The basement units include a kitchen as part of an open design concept with a long peninsula creating a galley-style layout with three pendant lights and bar counter seating. The uppers for the shaker style cabinets are white and the lowers are dark blue. The kitchens also feature a work sink with inserts to dry dishes on or prepare food. The basement has ample recessed lighting throughout. A new front entryway to the basement created with all new hardscaping and stairs features a patio and space for bike storage.
