Welcome to a light-filled 2BD/2BA retreat in one of Columbia Heights' most beloved boutique buildings - just five units total and low condo fee ($218/month). Hardwood floors run throughout, leading you into an open kitchen outfitted with waterfall Carrara quartz counters, a chef-style stainless suite, and gas range - the kind of kitchen that makes everyday cooking feel like a treat. Both bedrooms give you real flexibility - space for a home office, guest room, or nursery without sacrificing the primary suite, and both bathrooms are finished with the same quiet, spa-like polish as the kitchen. In-unit washer/dryer means laundry day is one less errand to think about. Step outside and you're four blocks from the Columbia Heights Metro (Green/Yellow), with Trader Joe's, Harris Teeter, and Giant all within half a mile. One of the major draws to this neighborhood is the mix: top-ranked restaurants, coffee shops, fitness studios, and boutiques are all within reach for everyday city living. Yet when you need to slow down, Rock Creek Park and Meridian Hill Park are both close by, offering a quiet escape without ever leaving the neighborhood. Meridian Hill's newly restored cascading fountain, back in action this year after years of restoration, makes for an especially good weekend morning walk. Pet friendly, so the whole family's invited. This is city living that doesn't ask you to compromise on space, light, or finishes. *Square footage is approximate and should not be used for valuation purposes.
