Property Description
This lovely LeDroit Park townhouse was once the residence of two renowned American poets: Alice Moore Dunbar-Nelson and Paul Laurence Dunbar... a true literary couple.
The end-unit 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath townhouse features:
Main level with open living, 1/2 bath, dining, and large kitchen with ample counter space, leading out to a cozy patio -- perfect for gardening;
Entire top floor is owner's suite with high ceilings, custom lighting, window bench, large closet and a spacious bath with jacuzzi tub and separate shower;
On 2nd floor, two bedrooms and full bath with tub shower;
Gracious wooden staircase, skylight, recessed lighting, and gleaming hardwood floors throughout.
More on its past celebrated residents: Paul Dunbar, achieved fame in his short life. Maya Angelou took the last line of his poem "Sympathy" for the title of her book, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings.
Alice Dunbar-Nelson's first book, Violets and Other Tales (1895), was published when she was just 20 years old, and was one of the few female African American diarists of the early 20th century.
