Columbia Heights, NW Washington DC

A Century-Old Row House of Uncommon Scale

1311 Irving St NW stands as one of the larger row houses on its block, a five-bedroom home with 4,812 square feet of interior space and a history that traces to 1900. The Irving Street NW streetscape is a defining corridor in Columbia Heights, lined with early twentieth century facades that give the neighborhood its architectural character.

Two-car garage parking sets this home apart in a submarket where off-street parking is genuinely scarce. For buyers who require it, this feature alone narrows the field of comparable properties considerably.

At $1,175,000, the home offers a price-per-square-foot that reflects the scale and rarity of the offering. Five bedrooms and three and a half baths across nearly 5,000 square feet represent a configuration that is difficult to replicate in Columbia Heights at any price point.

Parking as Differentiator
