The 1909 home originally had plants growing in the walls and crumbling ceilings.
When Meaghan Smith started looking for a Capitol Hill fixer-upper in 2018, she came across a 1909 Federal-style rowhouse in an estate sale. At the time, plants were growing through the brick walls, and the kitchen ceiling was held up by two-by-fours. “But as soon as I walked in, I began imagining what it could be,” says Smith of the three-story house, which has four bedrooms, three-and-a-half bathrooms, and 1,944 square feet of space.
I tried to let the style of the house guide me as much as possible, honoring the history by preserving or recreating original architectural elements like doors, tile, and hardware, and then mixing in fresher elements with furniture and accessories.
