A Deanwood Row House With Mid-Century Roots

The home at 1226 47th Place NE sits within Deanwood, one of DC’s established NE neighborhoods with a distinct residential identity and a grid of tree-lined streets that date to the early twentieth century. Built in 1951, the row house is part of a cohesive block of mid-century construction that defines the area’s architectural character.

At 910 square feet, the layout is direct and efficient: two bedrooms, one full bath, and a half bath distributed across a traditional row house configuration. The scale is well-suited to the neighborhood’s context and the price reflects genuine accessibility within the DC market.

Deanwood sits in the eastern reaches of NE, with access to the Orange and Blue Line Metro at Benning Road and the Blue and Silver Line at Capitol Heights nearby. The neighborhood is served by local retail corridors and green space along the Watts Branch corridor.

The Wardman Residential team at Compass represented the buyer in this transaction, bringing focused advisory to a purchase at a competitive price point in an established DC submarket.
