4740 Connecticut Ave NW #804 – welcome to The Essex, where timeless charm meets modern living in the heart of Wakefield. This spacious 823-square-foot condo delivers the perfect mix of style, comfort, and city convenience.
Hardwood floors flow throughout the open layout, giving the home a warm, polished feel. The dining area, lit by a wall of glass, leads straight to your oversized private balcony—a rare retreat that’s just begging for brunches, wine nights, or your favorite plant collection. The kitchen brings the wow factor with sleek white cabinets, granite counters, and a classic subway tile backsplash. With ample closet space and a smart layout, this one-bedroom, one-bath feels every bit as functional as it does stylish.
Living at The Essex means more than just a great condo. This storied Connecticut Avenue building offers concierge service, a fitness center, a rooftop deck with sweeping city views, laundry facilities, and extra storage. Translation: it’s designed to make life easier.
And the location? Unbeatable. You’re sandwiched between Cumberland and Davenport in the heart of Wakefield, just blocks from the Van Ness–UDC Metro. Shops, dining, and everyday conveniences are right outside your front door—so whether you’re craving a coffee run, date-night dinner, or a quick commute downtown, you’re covered.
