With its cozy interior, delightful patio, and captivating historical connections, this home invites you to create lasting memories in a place that seamlessly blends the past with the present. During the decades following the Civil War, Washington DC struggled to recover. Then, along came Boss Shepherd and his massive effort to create integrated public works projects from roads to sewers and from horse drawn trolleys to public water mains! Finally, in the 1980's, our beloved Eastern Market arrived on 7th Street SE! Capitol Hill was in the midst of all of this change. Overlay all of this infrastructure growth with the rapid growth of our federal government, you get a huge demand for modest affordable housing on Capitol Hill! As you walk along the 500 Block of 4th, and look at the variety of architectural styles, note how many were clearly built in the last 2 decades of the 19th century. In the midst of all of this activity and growth arrives 502 4th Street SE. As you step into this sweet little house you can feel history speaking to you. For the current owners, this property was love at first sight. They grabbed this jewel at first sight and spent the early years pouring their love for this property into it’s meticulous renovation and care. When the current owners purchased this historic property in February 2011, they assumed a responsibility to preserve and to protect this historic property.
