A T Street Row House With Depth, History, and Connectivity

The home at 170 T St NE is a three-bedroom, three-bath row house built in 1912, offering 1,979 square feet across a classic DC NE footprint. Row houses of this vintage on T Street represent some of the most enduring residential architecture in the quadrant — wide facades, generous room proportions, and the kind of structural bones that reward thoughtful renovation or careful stewardship.

Eckington sits at a practical crossroads in NE DC, with the Red Line accessible nearby and the broader NoMa and Brookland corridors within easy reach. The neighborhood’s street grid is walkable, and the mix of longtime residents and recent investment has brought a range of dining, coffee, and retail options to the immediate area.

Off-street parking via a paved driveway distinguishes this home from many row houses in the district, where curb space is competitive. At 1,979 square feet, the layout accommodates three full bathrooms — an uncommon configuration at this price point — giving the home flexibility for a range of living arrangements.

Offered at $775,000, this row house represents a substantive opportunity in a neighborhood with strong transit access and a well-established residential identity. The Wardman Residential team at Compass represented the seller in this transaction.

The Property
Built in 1912, this T Street NE row house spans 1,979 square feet with three bedrooms and three full baths. The home’s century-plus construction history places it among the established residential fabric of Eckington — a neighborhood defined by its early-twentieth-century streetscape and proximity to the city’s core.
The Neighborhood
Eckington occupies a well-positioned section of NE DC, bordered by NoMa to the south and Brookland to the north. The Red Line is accessible nearby, and the neighborhood’s walkable grid connects residents to local dining, parks, and everyday retail without requiring a car for most errands.
Practical Advantages
A paved driveway provides off-street parking — a practical distinction in a quadrant where on-street space is limited. Three full bathrooms across 1,979 square feet give the layout an uncommon degree of flexibility, supporting a range of configurations without compromise.
The Opportunity
Priced at $775,000, the home sits within a segment of the NE DC market where row house inventory at this scale remains competitive. The combination of square footage, parking, and transit access positions this property as a considered choice for buyers prioritizing connectivity and space.

A paved driveway provides off-street parking, a practical feature that adds meaningful value in this part of the city.

Eckington is one of NE DC’s most established residential neighborhoods, bounded by the rail corridor to the south and the rise toward Brookland to the north. The neighborhood’s street grid is intact and walkable, with local cafes, neighborhood groceries, and parks within reach of T Street. NoMa’s continued development has extended dining and retail options southward, making Eckington’s position increasingly central rather than peripheral. The Red Line is accessible nearby, and multiple bus routes serve the immediate area.

Day-to-day life on T Street NE moves at the pace of an established DC neighborhood — walkable errands, accessible transit, and a residential street character that has remained consistent across decades. The home’s three full bathrooms and nearly 2,000 square feet support a flexible interior program, whether that means dedicated guest space, a home office, or simply the breathing room that larger row houses in this corridor provide. Local parks and green space are within the neighborhood’s walkable radius. The paved driveway removes the friction of street parking, which in this part of NE DC is a genuine daily convenience.
