Sold strictly AS-IS. Investor opportunity in the heart of Congress Heights! This end-unit rowhome shell has been completely gutted and is ready for your vision. A rare chance to renovate from the ground up, the property offers excellent potential for a fix-and-flip, long-term rental, or resale project.

The end-unit location provides additional natural light and added design flexibility. Situated in a rapidly developing area of Southeast DC, the home is just minutes from the Congress Heights Metro Station (Green Line), Giant Food, shopping, dining, and the transformative St. Elizabeths East redevelopment. Nearby attractions include CareFirst Arena, home of the Washington Mystics and Capital City Go-Go, plus convenient access to Downtown DC, Navy Yard, Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling, and major commuter routes.

Bring your contractor and imagination—this is a prime value-add opportunity in one of DC's growing neighborhoods.
