819 D St NE

Converted in 2016 from a circa-1897 Gothic Revival church, this intimate boutique condominium comprises 30 individually distinguished residences clustered around restored sanctuary elements. The building rises two to four stories in its townhouse and church volumes and preserves architectural character—stained and leaded glass, exposed brick, soaring ceilings and original sanctuary doors—while integrating modern systems and finishes. Residences are primarily one-bedroom layouts (with occasional two-bedroom and loft plans in penthouse/bell-tower units) featuring open floor plans, wide-plank hardwood floors, high windows, recessed lighting, in-unit washers/dryers, and upgraded kitchens with stone counters and stainless appliances. Bathrooms range from tiled stall showers to deep soaking tubs with designer fixtures and imported marble finishes in select homes. Common provisions include secured entry with call box, elevator access in portions of the building, a dedicated bike room, prewiring for Fios, and lower-level cement subfloors for sound control. Exterior touches are modest—street lighting, sidewalks and a limited number of private patios or rooftop terraces for upper units. The property sits in Stanton Park/Capitol Hill, within easy walking distance of Union Station, Eastern Market, grocery options, parks, and transit; the neighborhood offers a blend of historic charm, pedestrian convenience and a civic atmosphere. Pets are permitted and parking availability varies by unit.
