welcome to North Capitol Hill

North Capitol HIll is what we consider to be the area just north of Volunteer Park and south of the 520 Bridge. This small neighborhood offers mostly single-family housing on sidewalk-lined streets where mature trees offer shade. Interlaken Park is also in North Capitol HIll, and many impressive homes can be found tucked away in the lush greenery.

“The residential side streets are beautiful with lots of tree cover. They are quiet and especially great for socially distant walking and running.”

What people are saying

“Having bought and sold several homes, I can honestly say Matt and his team are the best in the business! Matt is knowledgeable, personable, and incredibly organized. After we moved out of state, he handled everything — from new carpets and painting to cleaning and staging. The whole process was seamless, and working with Matt and his team remotely was completely stress-free. Thank you so much for making it so easy!”

“We've worked with Matt twice now (both times very successfully) and honestly wouldn't go to anyone else. This time around we got to work with the whole team - everyone is so great and they all go above and beyond. GHAH just makes the whole thing so much easier and Matt keeps it so real. From day one they actually listened to what we wanted and what our budget was, but kept our expectations inline with what was realistic. It feels like working with someone who is genuinely on our side. They're incredibly organized and communicative too. Appointments were always smooth, they do all the scheduling with other companies as needed, we always knew what was happening next, and we never had to wonder where things stood. That kind of hand-holding (in the best way) makes a huge difference when the process can feel so overwhelming. We're also using Happy at Home Contracting - equally amazing! Medardo and team are top tier. Truly cannot say enough good things about Matt and the GHAH team!”
