About this home

The Twin Gables is a rare and beloved Frederick Anhalt Condominium. From the tree-lined street, the castle-like silhouette, iron gate, and rich masonry radiate so much appeal. Under a mature tree canopy, follow the curved flagstone pathways around a lush English garden. Wrapped in the courtyard is a beautiful pond, container gardens, and Adirondack chairs, perfect for enjoying the enchanting surroundings. Built in 1929, its French-inspired craftsmanship exudes unique grace and style. Unit #3 offers 881sf of spacious living with 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom. Hardwoods set the stage as you enter through your garden door. The generous living room features a view of the gracious curved staircase, with barrel-roll ceilings leading to the second floor. A gothic archway opens into a formal dining room. The kitchen is bright with original countertops, good cabinet space, high ceilings, and a back door. Upstairs find 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, and a landing including storage. The bedroom facing the courtyard has a walk-in closet and French doors that lead to a romantic birds-eye balcony overlooking the plush garden below. The full bath is vintage-inspired with a refinished cast iron tub. Extra storage unit, bike and laundry room are located on the basement level. The condo is pet friendly, has radiator heat and no rent cap. Your sanctuary in Capitol Hill’s most livable neighborhood with shops, eateries, bars, light rail, and Volunteer park just blocks away. Welcome to the world of Anhalt!
