DC has a storied history, one that people visit from all over the world to see like the Washington monument, the Capitol building and hundreds of museums. But then there is the District, the living, breathing, thriving city that has supported and housed its residents. A city made up of vibrant neighborhoods that each have their own beautiful and complex story. We are pleased to present 1314 T street NW, located in the heart of the U Street Corridor - a social, nightlife and entertainment hub for the region with a prolific history for what it was when it was all built in the early 1900s. The U Street Corridor / 14th street Corridor in DC was once known as black Broadway, or the Harlem of Washington DC. It was considered by many to be an epicenter for creatives in the auditory and visual arts as well as theater and performance arts. During a time when segregation divided our nation and the city, there were black designed, built and owned venues in this neighborhood that opened their doors to all people. Simply put, the U street corridor was one of the first and very rare places where integrated crowds could come and hear some of the greatest musicians that ever lived - in their prime. That energy still exists today with the addition of so many opportunities for recreation, retail, dining and entertainment all in one place. The neighborhood speaks for itself and the home tells a story that is worthy of your attention. The most special and outstanding feature of this home is the two level, lot-width and ready-for-reimagining Carriage House with so many original features just waiting to be restored to their former glory. The home was originally built in 1878 so there were almost 40 years that we can imagine the Carriage House was used to store the carriage and horse of the original owners. When the second owners, the Lightfoot family, took possession in the 1920s, the space was repurposed to be the workshop of Mr. Lightfoot's Heating system and hot water tank fabrication business. The curved radiators that perfectly match the front bay windows on all three levels of this home are the product of Mr. Lightfoot's ingenuity and entrepreneurial spirit. Today, this carriage house and its size present an outstanding income property potential or just a separate space for additional parking and entertainment in addition to the generous back yard. The soft pine hardwood floors, oversized doors and windows detailed crown mouldings, original stone fireplace hearths, transom windows, and clawfoot tubs in the two full bathrooms are all features that pay tribute to the time period when this home was built and have stood the test of time. The entry vestibule, foyer and details around the ceiling light fixtures and ceiling height give this home a grandiose and classic energy that can not be denied. Welcome home and we can not wait to see who is the next steward and only the 4th owner of this 143-year-old property and piece of DC history!
