The Sanctuary Condos For SaleLocated at 819 D Street NE, Washington, DC 20002
Washington, DC is well known for its adaptive reuse of historic properties. A case in point is The Sanctuary—a boutique condominium with 30 upscale residences. Of those, 26 units are located inside a former Gothic Revival-style church while four more residences are in two adjacent row houses.
Dating back to the turn of the 20th century, these antique properties were carefully restored, renovated and converted to luxury condos for sale. The project was overseen by the well-known DC architectural form Bonstra | Haresign and completed in the fall of 2016.

The Sanctuary is at 819 D Street NE in the Capitol Hill neighborhood. This is an area that has seen a rash of intriguing transformations, including schools, factories and even old steam laundry facilities. The Edmonds School condominium is right across the street. Carolina on the Hill (formerly St. Catherine’s Home for Working Girls, run by the Sisters of Mercy) and the Bryan School Lofts are also in the area.
Residences at The Sanctuary range from one to three bedrooms, each with its own unique floorplan. Among the features are wide-plank hardwood floors, exposed brick walls and marble baths with subway tiles. But it is the original antique stained glass windows that truly stand out—the result of hours of meticulous work by skilled craftsmen, reassembling and restoring these classic stained church windows in consultation with the Historic Review Board.
But the incredible interiors don’t end there. From the marble baths with subway tiles to the upper level units with their soaring 20-feet cathedral ceilings, these residences are the epitome of both character and elegance. Also worth noting are the modern marble kitchens with Sub-Zero and Wolff stainless steel appliances. And if that’s not enough, each of the upper level units in the church building is accessible either by elevator or by the original restored grand staircase.
Select residences have private rooftop decks with stunning views of the Capitol Dome. Meanwhile, the two separate townhouse structures two terrace-level one-bedroom units and two three-bedroom, 2.5 bath luxury residences. Condos for sale at The Sanctuary range in price from the mid-$300’s to over $1 million.
