Rare opportunity to own a triplex income property in Washington, DC! This property features three separate units, making it ideal for both investors and owner-occupants. Live in one unit and have the other two help pay your mortgage, or rent all three units for strong income potential and long-term equity growth. Located in the Congress Heights area of Southeast DC, the property sits within an emerging redevelopment corridor near the St. Elizabeths campus redevelopment and the Entertainment & Sports Arena. The area continues to attract attention due to its proximity to the Congress Heights Metro (Green Line), commuter routes, and Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling, creating consistent rental demand. This is one of the few remaining pockets in DC where multifamily ownership is still attainable, making it a great entry point into the DC investment market. Perfect for first-time investors, house-hackers, or buyers seeking a property that combines homeownership with income generation. A unique chance to build equity while tenants contribute to your housing costs — an increasingly rare opportunity inside the District.
