Five Bedrooms. Century-Old Bones. Brookland Address.

The home at 1311 Irving Street NE represents a genuine opportunity to acquire substantial square footage in one of NE Washington’s most established residential corridors. At 3,350 square feet, the five-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath layout offers room configurations that accommodate a wide range of uses across multiple floors.

Built in 1925, the structure carries the architectural character typical of Brookland’s early twentieth-century housing stock — generous room proportions, solid construction, and a street presence that fits naturally into the neighborhood’s historic fabric. The concrete driveway adds practical value in a city where off-street parking commands a premium.

Brookland’s Irving Street corridor places residents within reach of the Red Line at Brookland-CUA, neighborhood dining and retail along 12th Street NE, and the broader amenities of the Monroe Street Market area. The combination of scale, location, and price point makes this home a compelling subject for serious buyers in the NE market.

Scale and Space
The home delivers 3,350 square feet across five bedrooms and three and a half baths — a footprint that provides genuine flexibility for how each level is used. Homes of this size in the NE quadrant at this price point are increasingly uncommon, making the square footage itself a distinguishing factor.
Historic Character
Constructed in 1925, the home reflects the building traditions of early Brookland — a period when residential construction in this part of NE Washington emphasized durability and proportion. The age of the structure is an asset for buyers who value architectural authenticity over newer, smaller-footprint alternatives.
Practical Assets
A concrete driveway provides off-street parking, a practical advantage in a neighborhood where street parking is competitive. This feature alone adds measurable utility for buyers who require reliable, dedicated vehicle storage without the cost of a garage.
Brookland Location
Brookland sits along the Red Line with the Brookland-CUA Metro station providing direct access to downtown DC and points beyond. The neighborhood’s 12th Street NE corridor, Monroe Street Market, and surrounding green spaces are all within the immediate area, grounding daily life in a walkable, transit-connected setting.
