Calling all investors, contractors, and developers! 4953 D St SE presents a rare opportunity to transform a single-family home on a highly desirable street. Sitting on an expansive 4,000 SF lot with R-3 zoning, this property is a true fixer-upper and a blank canvas ready for a complete reimagining or multi-family expansion. While this project will require much more than just a coat of paint, the essential groundwork is already there. All utilities are currently in place, and the property features the highly coveted D.C. premium of its own curb cut and dedicated off-street parking. The investment math speaks for itself: adjacent and neighboring properties demonstrate a proven ARV well over $500,000, with high-end finishes and smart layouts potentially pushing that ceiling toward the $600,000 mark. Whether you are looking for your next lucrative single-family flip or an income-producing multi-unit redevelopment, this property offers exceptional potential. Bring your architect and your vision—opportunities with this kind of margin and lot size are not to be missed.
