About this House

"Welcome home to 1835 16th Street NW. There is no condominium on the market today that compares to this sun-drenched, elegant, and beautifully decorated home that is under a million dollars. Situated directly between Logan and Dupont circle neighborhoods, 1835 16th St is an urban dweller’s dream! This self-managed boutique building offers a high degree of sophistication, a low HOA fee, and a wonderful group of neighbors. There is a palpable sense of calm as soon as you enter the foyer door, and the buzz of the city at your fingertips as soon as you leave it. After all, walk 5 minutes in any direction through Old City’s picturesque, tree-lined streets and you’ll find restaurants of virtually every food genre, boutique shopping opportunities, and lively nightlife. Walk 10-15 minutes, and you’ll have ready access to the yellow, green, and red metro lines. Or just turn left out of your front door and walk straight to the White House, National mall, and all of the world-class museums DC has to offer. In short, this property offers abundant transportation options, an incredible walk score and a premium location which round out why this should be your next home. The low condo fee is also an attractive feature. That being said, when you see the interior of this period 1920s condominium, you might not want to leave at all! In 2024 the current owners embarked on a serious refresh of the property, which features Brazilian teak (engineered) hardwood, an updated kitchen, and custom millwork that impart a chic coziness reminiscent of the Upper West Side, or London’s Bloomsbury neighborhood. The condo has over 1150 square feet of heated/cooled space and features two full bedrooms and bathrooms, and a beautiful and bright den/studio currently used as a work-from-home creative space, and a full size in-unit washer/dryer. The updated kitchen offers an excellent work flow with custom cabinetry and lighting and is adjacent to a spectacular long hallway that could serve as a backdrop for your art collection. The main garden offers a well-landscaped front common area that residents from the five-unit building regularly enjoy, especially for summer drinks and barbecues. Besides a private basement storage room that conveys with the sale, the condo also has five closet spaces, providing ample storage for your clothes and collectibles. Come see this stunning property and imagine your life in the heart of the nation’s capital!"

    "Need rat control in neighborhood"
  • Adefoluke Shemsu
    "Florida Avenue tends to be busy, so I would recommend taking the kids around the side/off streets if safety is a concern. The parks and schools tend to be along those streets anyway."
  • Alice Topping
    "Pride festival, high heels race, Swann street Halloween, Stead park holiday events for kids, Cherry Blossoms "
  • 8kxjsdpfxy
    "My friends had to move away due to its problematic neighborhood. There were frequent parties, resulting in dirty streets every morning. Moreover, a lot of people tried to break into the building to steal packages, making the area unsuitable for families with kids."
  • Trulia User
    "It has changed a lot over the last 10 to 15 years and the change shows in a very positive manner. It feels safe, home-like, clean, and although it still has some minor issues, those issues are noticeable improving quickly as the neighborhood gets gentrified. "
  • Trulia User
    "The commute is easy snd Simple. Plenty of metro access and buses running they are close by which is really convenient!!"
  • Trulia User

  • Craig B.
    "Easy commute; mostly traveling in the opposite direction of traffic coming in from the suburbs in the morning. Excellent access to public transport. "
  • Jaya.send
    "I commute by metro to MD. Sometimes take a bus to redline so that I don’t have to transfer. I appreciate the easy access to 395 to get to VA as well, and green and yellow lines to the airport, Gallery Place, Nats park, and the Wharf are great. "
  • Jonathan F.
    "Up and Coming neighborhood. Close to the nightlife on you Street. New grocery store opening soon. Well diverse "

  • Jeaniegordon
    "I've lived in this neighborhood for 4 years and it's great - there are grocery stores within walking distance, and lots of public transit if you need. I have a bus stop literally in front of my house. 11th St has a lot of great restaurants and bars, and U St and Shaw are just a quick walk down hill. Neighbors both old and new are friendly, if not on a first name basis. "
  • Zmyckow
