1615 KENYON STREET, Washington, DC 20010

Morning light pours through three oversized windows in this Mount Pleasant studio at The Alroy, catching the hardwood floors and the trees just outside the glass. A partial wall carves out a real sleep nook away from the main living space, so the layout lives bigger than the square footage suggests, all the flow of a studio with the privacy of a one-bedroom. A dedicated closet sits just off the entry for actual hanging storage. The kitchen is compact and capable, stainless steel appliances, generous white cabinetry, a deep basin sink with a pull-down faucet. The bath keeps its character with soft green walls and classic tile, paired with an updated vanity and medicine cabinet. The Alroy is a well-run building with a landmark lobby, original checkerboard marble floors, wrought iron staircase, brass mailboxes, plus a shared laundry room downstairs. Kenyon Street puts you right where Mount Pleasant, Columbia Heights, and Adams Morgan meet, walkable to Meridian Hill Park and a different dinner spot every night of the week.
