Penthouse Living & LOW CONDO FEES.
Welcome to this light-filled penthouse condo, a true neighborhood gem offering the rare blend of urban convenience and a small-town feel. Located in a boutique building, this top-floor home features a private balcony for quiet coffee in the morning, no neighbors above, and everyday ease just steps from your door.
Located at the intersection of Shaw, Bloomingdale, and Eckington, you can enjoy lazy Saturday strolls to the local farmer’s market or grab last-minute essentials at the mom-and-pop grocery right next door—a convenience that’s hard to find in the city. With coffee shops, parks, and friendly faces in local favorites like from a dynamic mix of local favorites, including Big Bear Café, The Red Hen, Dacha Beer Garden, and El Techo around every corner, it’s no wonder this community feels like home the moment you arrive.

The open layout is perfect for both relaxing and entertaining, with ovesized windows bringing in natural light all day. And for those working at the State Department or nearby federal agencies, this location offers a Walk Score of 95 and just minutes to Shaw-Howard Metro Station (Green/Yellow Line), multiple bus lines, and major commuter routes like North Capitol Street and Rhode Island Avenue, making it an effortless commute with all the comforts of a quiet retreat.

Whether you're a first-time buyer or looking for a smart investment in a prime DC location, this penthouse unit offers a rare opportunity to live above it all—while staying close to everything. ASK ABOUT POSSIBLE 0% DOWN FINANCING!
