2220 20th St NW #47 — Adams Morgan, Washington DC

Historic Address. Comprehensive HOA. Adams Morgan at Your Door.

The residence at 2220 20th St NW #47 occupies a building that dates to 1902, placing it among the older residential structures in NW Washington. The one-bedroom, one-bath layout spans 500 square feet — a considered footprint that suits buyers who prioritize location and low overhead over square footage.

The HOA structure here is notably inclusive. Gas, heat, water, sewer, trash, snow removal, taxes, building insurance, management fees, reserve fund contributions, and the underlying mortgage are all covered monthly — removing a significant layer of variable expense from the ownership equation.

Adams Morgan is one of the most walkable corridors in the District, with 18th Street’s dining and nightlife, Columbia Road’s weekend farmers market, and Rock Creek Park all within easy reach. The Woodley Park-Zoo and Columbia Heights Metro stations provide Red and Green/Yellow Line access respectively.

For a buyer entering the DC condo market, or consolidating from a larger footprint, this residence offers a rare combination of historic character, neighborhood vitality, and financial transparency in the monthly cost structure.

The Building
The building at 2220 20th St NW was constructed in 1902, giving it more than a century of residential history in the NW quadrant. The structure has been maintained as a condominium community, with professional management and a funded reserve — details that matter when evaluating long-term ownership in an older building.
HOA Coverage
The monthly HOA fee covers an extensive list of line items: gas, heat, water, sewer, trash, snow removal, taxes, insurance, management, reserve funds, and the underlying mortgage. Buyers should confirm the current monthly figure with their agent, but the breadth of coverage is a meaningful differentiator relative to buildings where utilities and taxes are owner-paid separately.
The Neighborhood
Adams Morgan sits at the intersection of several of DC’s most active neighborhoods — bordered by Woodley Park, Columbia Heights, and Dupont Circle. The 18th Street corridor offers a dense concentration of restaurants, bars, and independent retail. Rock Creek Park provides green space and trail access within walking distance.
The Opportunity
At $310,000, this residence sits at an accessible price point for the Adams Morgan submarket, where one-bedroom condos in historic buildings have historically commanded buyer interest from those seeking urban walkability without the carrying costs typical of newer construction. The all-inclusive HOA structure makes monthly budgeting straightforward.

Frequently Asked Questions About This Property

Key details about the residence, building, and location to help you evaluate this opportunity.

The monthly HOA fee at 2220 20th St NW is notably comprehensive. It covers gas, heat, water, sewer, trash, snow removal, taxes, building insurance, management fees, reserve fund contributions, and the underlying mortgage. Buyers should confirm the current monthly dollar amount with their agent and review the association’s financial disclosures prior to contract.
Some older cooperative and condominium buildings carry a blanket or underlying mortgage on the property as a whole, with each unit’s share of that debt reflected in the monthly HOA fee. This structure is more common in buildings converted from cooperative ownership. Buyers should review the building’s financials carefully and consult with a lender experienced in this type of ownership structure.
The property is listed as a condominium. However, the inclusion of an underlying mortgage in the HOA fee is a feature sometimes associated with cooperative buildings or older converted structures. Buyers should confirm the exact ownership structure with the listing agent and ensure their lender is familiar with the building’s financing requirements.
Buildings with all-inclusive HOA structures — particularly those covering taxes and an underlying mortgage — can affect lender eligibility and loan product availability. Not all conventional lenders are familiar with this structure. Buyers are advised to work with a lender who has experience financing units in similar DC buildings and to obtain pre-approval specific to this property type.
The residence is located in Adams Morgan, within reach of two Metro lines. The Woodley Park-Zoo station on the Red Line and the Columbia Heights station on the Green and Yellow Lines are both accessible from the address. Multiple Metrobus routes along 18th Street NW and Columbia Road provide additional transit options.
Adams Morgan consistently ranks among the most walkable neighborhoods in Washington DC. The 18th Street NW corridor and Columbia Road offer dense concentrations of restaurants, cafes, groceries, and retail within easy walking distance of this address. Rock Creek Park provides trail and green space access without requiring a car or transit trip.
Buildings of this age can carry deferred maintenance risks alongside their architectural character. Buyers should review the association’s reserve fund study, recent capital improvement history, and any pending special assessments before going under contract. A thorough inspection and a review of meeting minutes from the condo association are standard due diligence steps for historic buildings.
A Wardman team member and the Wardman Residential team at Compass have direct experience with Adams Morgan condos and buildings with all-inclusive HOA structures.
