Executive Summary
3214 Sherman Avenue NW is a four-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath row house in Columbia Heights, built in 1909 and offering 2,337 square feet of living space. The home sits on a block where the historic streetscape remains largely intact, lending the address a sense of architectural continuity uncommon in many NW neighborhoods. A private one-car garage — a genuine rarity in this part of the city — adds practical value that buyers in Columbia Heights consistently seek and rarely find.
A Sherman Avenue Row House With Rare Garage Parking
3214 Sherman Avenue NW is a four-bedroom row house built in 1909, situated on one of Columbia Heights’ most visually cohesive residential blocks. At 2,337 square feet across three levels, the home offers the kind of scale that is increasingly difficult to find in NW DC at this price point.
The property includes a private one-car garage — an asset that distinguishes it immediately from the majority of Columbia Heights row houses, where off-street parking is scarce and street competition is high. For buyers who drive regularly or need secure storage, this feature alone narrows the field considerably.
Sherman Avenue’s historic streetscape provides an architectural backdrop that newer construction cannot replicate. The 1909 facade reads as part of a continuous block composition, a quality that contributes to the street’s enduring appeal and the neighborhood’s distinct character within NW DC.
Columbia Heights is a dense, walkable neighborhood with direct Metro access, a broad commercial corridor along 14th Street NW, and a mix of long-established and newer retail and dining options. The combination of neighborhood infrastructure, interior scale, and the garage makes this home a considered choice for buyers prioritizing utility alongside character.

- 2337 sq ft across a classic NW row house
- 1909 construction on an intact historic block

Property Location
About 3214 Sherman Ave NW
3214 Sherman Avenue NW is a 1909 row house in Columbia Heights, offering four bedrooms, two full baths, one half bath, and 2,337 square feet of interior space. The home’s facade is consistent with the historic character of Sherman Avenue, where the original development pattern remains largely intact more than a century after construction. A private one-car garage — accessed from the property — is among the most practical and uncommon features a Columbia Heights row house can offer.
Columbia Heights is one of NW DC’s most established and walkable neighborhoods, anchored by the 14th Street NW commercial corridor and served directly by the Columbia Heights Metro station on the Green and Yellow lines. The neighborhood offers a dense mix of local dining, retail, and services within easy reach of Sherman Avenue. Meridian Hill Park, one of DC’s most distinctive public spaces, is close at hand and serves as a central gathering point for the surrounding blocks.
Daily life on Sherman Avenue moves at the pace of a true urban neighborhood — walkable errands, accessible transit, and a residential street character that coexists with the energy of 14th Street nearby. The private garage changes the calculus for buyers who drive, eliminating the daily friction of street parking that defines life on most comparable blocks. The home’s scale, at over 2,300 square feet, supports a range of living configurations across its four bedrooms and multiple levels.
