“From red-tag to ready-to-love” A traditional brick DC rowhome exposed to a major fire and water event—DOB red tags, deep soot, and burned interiors tell the story of what once was. That’s the bad news. The good news: it’s the right kind of ugly—a straightforward renovation that lets you rewire, replumb, re-insulate, and rebuild to the 2026 building code and align with today's buyer design preferences, without undoing anyone else’s mistakes. Once complete, you’ll have a clean, code-compliant home with brand-new systems, fresh finishes, and lasting value. There’s even space for a one-bedroom, one-bathroom basement suite with rear egress. What Comes Next Picture a brand-new, fully rebuilt, all-new-systems rowhome in desirable Anacostia/Fairlawn Community—minutes from parks, retail, and the Anacostia Metro. A Classic DC brick charmer meets modern living: light-filled spaces, a designer kitchen, 2–3 bedrooms, 2-3 baths, and a finished lower walk-out level. All anchored by worry-free systems packaged for the next decade. Preferred Alley Access 1502 19th ST SE sits on a residential block with alley access and small park in the alley—a rare DC amenity that immediately boosts resale value. You’re not just buying a shell; you’re securing a brick-built footprint with a backyard in a centrally located, fast-developing neighborhood. That alley access creates real design flexibility: Room for a rear deck, bump-out (already included), or enclosed porch without changing the façade. A rear entry that supports a potential rentable basement suite. The potential for dual access—front entry for owners, rear for guests or tenants. Easier construction logistics: materials and crews can enter from the alley, minimizing disruption. Enjoy city life without the parking battle, just minutes from all that Anacostia Park offers: tennis courts, basketball courts, fishing, jogging paths, green lawns, and across the river from It’s the home stadium of the Washington Nationals (the National Baseball Club) the Navy Yard / Capitol Riverfront neighborhood, and the Wharf. You’re transforming a fire-damaged structure into a premium, turnkey, affordable home with square footage and features buyers and tenants will pay for.

With thoughtful design, alley access, and modern construction, 1502 19th St SE is poised to go from red-tag shell to ready-to-love showpiece—delivering both neighborhood charm and lasting equity. This property isn’t just a house; it’s an investment in your future.
