Property Location
About 1383 Somerset Pl NW
The home at 1383 Somerset Pl NW was built in 1933 and presents the architectural character consistent with Petworth’s early residential construction. At 2,125 square feet, it offers four bedrooms and four full baths alongside a half bath — a configuration that provides meaningful depth across a single-family layout. The structure sits on a residential street that reflects the neighborhood’s established, low-density character.
Petworth is one of NW Washington’s most intact early-twentieth-century neighborhoods, defined by its grid of residential streets, proximity to Rock Creek Park’s eastern edge, and a commercial spine along Georgia Ave NW. The neighborhood has sustained a strong owner-occupant base and a walkable daily-life infrastructure that includes grocery options, local dining, and transit access. Somerset Pl NW sits within this fabric, on a block that reads as quintessentially Petworth.
The practical advantages of this home extend beyond its interior square footage. The private garage — uncommon in Petworth NW — and the brick driveway together provide a parking situation that most comparable homes in the neighborhood cannot offer. The Georgia Ave-Petworth Metro station is accessible from the neighborhood, and the surrounding blocks support daily errands, dining, and recreation without requiring a car for every trip.
A Wardman team member and the Wardman Residential team at Compass have worked extensively with single-family homes and row houses across Petworth and the broader upper NW submarket, advising both buyers and sellers through the neighborhood’s active resale market. We understand the specific dynamics that drive value in Petworth — from parking infrastructure to lot configuration to the premium placed on homes with original 1930s character.
