Executive Summary
1352 Longfellow St NW #201 is a 608-square-foot one-bedroom, one-bath residence in a century-old building in Petworth, NW Washington. Priced at $270,000, the residence offers an accessible entry point into a well-established DC neighborhood. The HOA structure is notably comprehensive, covering gas, water, sewer, trash, snow removal, lawn maintenance, insurance, reserve funds, and professional management — reducing the unpredictability of monthly housing costs.
A Historic Petworth Residence With Full-Utility HOA Coverage
The residence at 1352 Longfellow St NW #201 occupies the second floor of a 1917 building on a residential street in Petworth, one of NW Washington’s most established and walkable neighborhoods. At 608 square feet, the one-bedroom layout is efficiently scaled for urban living, with a full bath and a building profile that reflects the architectural character of the surrounding streetscape.
The HOA structure here is one of the more comprehensive available at this price point in DC. Gas, water, sewer, trash, snow removal, lawn maintenance, building insurance, reserve fund contributions, and professional management are all included — a meaningful offset to the $270,000 purchase price when evaluating total monthly carrying costs against comparable rentals or condominiums with leaner HOA coverage.
Petworth offers direct access to the Georgia Ave-Petworth Metro station on the Green and Yellow lines, connecting residents to downtown DC, the U Street corridor, and points south and north. The neighborhood’s commercial spine along Georgia Avenue and the surrounding residential blocks provide everyday conveniences within a walkable radius.
For buyers seeking an owned DC residence with predictable monthly costs and proximity to transit, 1352 Longfellow St NW #201 presents a straightforward case. The combination of a historically grounded building, inclusive HOA, and Petworth’s central position in NW Washington makes this residence worth serious consideration at its price point.

Property Location
About 1352 Longfellow St NW #201
The residence at 1352 Longfellow St NW #201 is a second-floor unit in a 1917 building on a quiet residential block in Petworth. The one-bedroom, one-bath layout spans 608 square feet, offering a compact but functional floor plan consistent with the building’s early twentieth-century construction. The building’s age gives it a structural and aesthetic character that distinguishes it from the area’s newer condominium conversions.
Petworth is one of NW Washington’s most geographically central neighborhoods, bounded by Rock Creek Church Road to the north and the Park Road corridor to the south. The Georgia Ave-Petworth Metro station places residents on the Green and Yellow lines, with straightforward access to Columbia Heights, U Street, and downtown DC. Georgia Avenue’s commercial strip provides everyday retail, dining, and services within walking distance of Longfellow Street.
Day-to-day life in Petworth is grounded in walkability and neighborhood infrastructure that has been in place for decades. Local cafes, grocery options, and neighborhood parks are accessible without a car, and the Metro connection makes the broader city equally reachable. The residential blocks surrounding Longfellow Street maintain the low-rise, tree-lined character typical of established NW Washington neighborhoods.
