Space, Parking, and a Century of Petworth Character

122 Webster St NW presents a rare combination of scale and practicality in one of NW DC’s most enduring residential corridors. The home was built in 1923 and carries the architectural character consistent with Petworth’s early twentieth-century row house stock, while offering 2,486 square feet of interior space across three full levels.

Three bedrooms and three and a half baths provide a layout that accommodates a range of living arrangements without compromise. The full bath count — three complete baths plus a half bath — is notably generous for a home of this era and type.

Off-street parking is among the most sought-after features in DC residential real estate, and this home delivers it in the form of a concrete driveway and a fenced surface parking area. The private parking footprint is a structural asset that distinguishes this property from the majority of comparable row houses in the neighborhood.

Petworth’s grid of tree-lined streets connects residents to the Georgia Avenue corridor, neighborhood parks, local dining, and the Green and Yellow Line Metro stations to the south. The neighborhood has been a cornerstone of NW DC residential life for over a century, and Webster Street sits comfortably within that fabric.

The Home
Built in 1923, this Petworth home spans 2,486 square feet and reflects the durable construction characteristic of the neighborhood’s early twentieth-century residential blocks. The scale is notable — few row houses in this zip code offer this much interior square footage at this price point.
The Layout
Three bedrooms and three full baths, plus a half bath, give the layout a flexibility that is uncommon in homes of this vintage. Each full bath serves a distinct zone of the home, reducing the compromises that typically come with older DC row house configurations.
Parking Advantage
A concrete driveway and fenced surface parking area represent a meaningful structural advantage in a city where off-street parking commands a premium. The private parking footprint is deeded to the lot and is not a shared or leased arrangement.
The Neighborhood
Petworth occupies a central position in NW DC, with the Georgia Avenue commercial corridor nearby and multiple transit options within reach. The neighborhood’s walkable grid and established residential character make Webster Street a practical and well-located address.
