2842 Belair Place NEWashington, DC 20018

First Open house Sunday 1-3pm! Welcome to 2842 Belair Place NE, a detached single-family home in the Woodridge/Langdon neighborhood that offers a different kind of value for DC buyers, more space, more flexibility, and a location that quietly checks a lot of boxes. Originally built in the early 1900s and renovated in 2015, the home is move-in ready with an open main level that flows naturally between the living room, dining area, and kitchen with breakfast bar. Hardwood floors run throughout and the ceiling height gives the space an open, comfortable feel. Just off the main level, the rear deck extends your living space outdoors and is well suited for everyday use or hosting. Upstairs, you will find three bedrooms and a full bathroom with solid closet space. The lower level includes a second full bathroom, a walk-out to the rear, and flexible space for guests, work, or additional living.
Step outside and the neighborhood starts to do the heavy lifting. The blocks here feel established and lived-in, with neighbors who are present and connected, creating a setting that blends city access with a more residential, community-oriented feel. One block away, Langdon Park anchors daily life with a pool, recreation center, tennis courts, skate park, baseball field, community garden, and open green space. The Woodridge Library and Chuck Brown Memorial Park are right there as well, making it easy to stay local without feeling limited.
The Rhode Island Avenue corridor continues to build momentum with neighborhood staples like Zeke’s Coffee, Provost, and The Museum, plus a growing mix of dining, grocery, and retail options. EchoStage is close enough for a night out, and Ivy City adds another layer Culture DC, Ivy City Smokehouse, and a mix of warehouse-style retail and food concepts that keep evolving. For commuting and getting around, you have plentiful options with Rhode Island Avenue Metro and Brookland Metro both within reach, along with quick access to major routes into downtown DC and out toward Maryland.
This home is just a short ride from Mount Rainier and the Gateway Farmers Market which offer even more local flavor, while Fort Lincoln, with Costco, Lowe’s, and additional retail, handles the everyday essentials without a long trip. The National Arboretum is only a few minutes away, but you will notice the tree-lined streets and seasonal color throughout Langdon Park and the surrounding blocks long before you get there. This is a location that continues to grow while maintaining a neighborhood feel that is hard to replicate.
