A Petworth Classic With a Private Garage

The home at 1368 Hamilton Street NW sits within Petworth, a neighborhood defined by its cohesive blocks of early-twentieth-century single-family homes and row houses. Built in 1927, this four-bedroom residence carries the architectural character of that era while offering the practical footprint that makes Petworth properties so enduringly sought after.

Three full baths serve the four-bedroom layout, a configuration that provides genuine flexibility for a range of living arrangements. The private garage — a single dedicated space — is a meaningful asset in a part of NW DC where off-street parking is consistently at a premium.

Hamilton Street NW is a residential corridor with direct access to the commercial energy of Georgia Avenue and the green space of Petworth’s parks. The Red and Green Line stations serving this neighborhood place downtown DC, Columbia Heights, and Silver Spring within a straightforward commute.
