Perched on the top floor of a charming boutique 1927 building, this top floor unit offers a rare combination of natural light, privacy, and unbeatable Columbia Heights convenience. This bright 2-bedroom, 2-bath residence feels remarkably removed from typical condo living, quiet and secluded, with beautiful morning sunrises and virtually no neighbor noise. Inside, warm hardwood floors complement a modern kitchen with granite countertops, stainless-steel appliances, and a breakfast bar perfect for casual meals and entertaining. Two full bathrooms provide flexibility for guests, roommates, or a home office setup, while an in-unit washer/dryer and dishwasher make everyday living easy. On sunny winter days, the abundant southern light can even naturally warm the home. Step outside and the neighborhood becomes an extension of your living space. Trolley Park is directly across the street, while 11th Street’s popular restaurants, cafés, and neighborhood bars are just blocks away. Columbia Heights and Georgia Ave-Petworth Metro stations are both approximately a 7–8 minute walk, with Howard University, area hospitals, and downtown destinations easily accessible. The neighborhood also offers a wonderful sense of community, with family block parties, Trolley Park gatherings and Easter egg hunts, an active dog park community, and a community garden just a block away. Within the building, neighbors look out for one another while still respecting privacy- whether watering plants, watching pets, collecting mail, or sharing advice about the building. And when it’s time to celebrate, head to the rooftop for outdoor space, skyline views, and a front-row seat to some of the city's best Fourth of July fireworks. Quiet when you want it, connected when you don’t- this unit delivers the best of city living without feeling like you're living in the middle of it.
