NoMa, Washington DC

A Century of Character, A Block from Everything

The home at 1118 Abbey Place NE is a 1924 brick row house that has been updated without sacrificing the architectural integrity that defines this stretch of NoMa. Three levels of finished living space total 1,438 square feet, anchored by hardwood floors, fresh paint, and a main level designed for easy daily living and entertaining.

The finished rear-walkout basement sets this home apart from comparable row houses in the corridor. With its own bedroom, oversized bathroom, and separate rear entrance, the lower level functions as a self-contained suite — whether used for guests, extended stays, or flexible creative space.

Off-street parking in a neighborhood where curb space is competitive is a meaningful practical advantage. The rear deck extends the living footprint outdoors, and the charming front porch anchors the street presence that makes Abbey Place feel distinctly residential despite its urban density.

NoMa’s walkability is among the highest in the District. Whole Foods, Harris Teeter, Trader Joe’s, and Giant are all within reach, as are Red Bear Brewing, Wunder Garten, La Colombe Coffee, REI, and Union Market. The Red Line Metro is blocks away, and the H Street corridor is a short walk.

The Home
The 1924 brick exterior frames three levels of living space totaling 1,438 square feet. Hardwood floors run throughout, fresh paint brightens every room, and the open main-level plan connects a spacious living room to a separate dining area without sacrificing definition. Large windows draw natural light deep into the interior.
The Basement Suite
The finished rear-walkout basement is the home’s most distinctive feature. A private bedroom, an oversized full bathroom, and a dedicated rear entrance give the lower level genuine independence from the floors above. The configuration supports a range of uses and adds meaningful flexibility to the overall floor plan.
Parking and Outdoor Space
One off-street parking space conveys with the home — a practical asset in NoMa’s dense urban environment. The rear deck provides a dedicated outdoor living area directly accessible from the kitchen, sized for relaxed dining and entertaining. The front porch completes the outdoor picture with a welcoming street-facing presence.
Location and Walkability
A walk score of 96 reflects what residents experience daily: Whole Foods, Harris Teeter, Trader Joe’s, and Giant are all nearby, alongside Union Market, REI, La Colombe Coffee, Red Bear Brewing, and Wunder Garten. The Red Line Metro is blocks away, and the H Street corridor is a short walk from the front door.

Property Location

About 1118 Abbey Pl NE

The row house at 1118 Abbey Place NE is a 1924 brick structure spanning three levels and 1,438 square feet in the NoMa neighborhood of Washington, DC. Hardwood floors and fresh paint carry through the main and upper levels, while an open floor plan on the main level connects the living room and dining area in a single, light-filled sequence. Three bedrooms and a full hallway bath occupy the upper level, accompanied by a linen closet. The finished rear-walkout basement adds a fourth bedroom-equivalent space, a second full bath, and a private rear entrance that gives the lower level genuine independence.

NoMa — North of Massachusetts Avenue NE — has emerged as one of the District’s most walkable and transit-connected neighborhoods. Abbey Place sits within blocks of the Red Line Metro and within easy reach of Union Market, one of DC’s most active food and retail destinations. Whole Foods, Harris Teeter, Trader Joe’s, and Giant serve daily grocery needs, while Red Bear Brewing, Wunder Garten, La Colombe Coffee, and REI anchor the neighborhood’s retail and social fabric. The H Street corridor, with its concentration of restaurants and bars, is a short walk to the north.

Daily life from Abbey Place is defined by proximity and convenience. A walk score of 96 means that groceries, coffee, dining, and Metro access are all reachable on foot without a car. The rear deck off the kitchen creates a natural extension of the main living area for outdoor meals or quiet evenings, while the front porch provides a street-level connection to the block. The galley kitchen’s gas range and island accommodate both everyday cooking and casual entertaining, and the basement’s rear entrance supports a range of living arrangements without compromising the privacy of the floors above.

Frequently Asked Questions About This Property
