About 1357 Nicholson St NW #ONE

The residence at 1357 Nicholson St NW, Unit One is a two-bedroom, two-bath condominium within a 1936 building in Petworth, NW DC. The 791-square-foot interior provides a two-bedroom configuration with two full baths, a layout that is uncommon at this price point in the neighborhood. The building’s 1936 construction reflects the pre-war residential character that defines much of Petworth’s housing stock, with the structural solidity typical of that era.

Petworth is one of NW DC’s most established residential neighborhoods, organized around a consistent grid of tree-lined streets and anchored by the Georgia Avenue commercial corridor. The neighborhood offers walkable access to local cafes, grocery options, and neighborhood retail without the density of closer-in DC submarkets. The Georgia Ave-Petworth Metro station, served by the Green and Yellow Lines, connects residents directly to Columbia Heights, U Street, downtown DC, and points south.

Day-to-day life in Petworth centers on the Georgia Avenue corridor, where neighborhood restaurants, coffee shops, and essential retail are within walking distance of Nicholson Street. Rock Creek Park and several neighborhood parks provide outdoor space within the broader area. The combination of transit access, walkable amenities, and a residential street character makes Petworth a practical base for navigating the broader DC metro.

A Wardman team member and the Wardman Residential team at Compass have worked extensively with buyers and sellers across NW DC’s established condo submarkets, including Petworth, Columbia Heights, and Brightwood. We bring detailed knowledge of pre-war condominium buildings in this corridor, including HOA structures, resale dynamics, and pricing relative to comparable inventory.
