A 1912 Row House in Eckington NE

The home at 170 T Street NE is a three-bedroom, three-bath row house built in 1912 and situated in Eckington, one of Washington’s established NE neighborhoods. The structure carries the architectural hallmarks of early-twentieth-century DC residential construction, with a scale and street presence that newer infill rarely replicates.

Eckington occupies a central position in the city, bordered by NoMa to the south and Bloomingdale to the west, with easy access to the Rhode Island Avenue Metro corridor. The neighborhood’s tree-lined residential streets connect quickly to the broader urban fabric of NE Washington.

At $379,000, this row house offers a meaningful entry point into DC homeownership. Three full baths across three bedrooms provides flexibility that is uncommon at this price in the District.

The Property
The home at 170 T Street NE was built in 1912 and reflects the residential character that defines Eckington’s block-by-block streetscape. Three bedrooms and three full baths offer a layout with genuine depth. The row house format — attached, street-facing, with the scale of a true DC home — is a property type that holds lasting relevance in the District.
The Neighborhood
Eckington sits at the intersection of several active NE corridors, with Bloomingdale’s restaurant row along First Street NW within easy reach and the NoMa development district a short distance south. Rhode Island Avenue NE provides a commercial spine with grocery, retail, and transit access. The neighborhood’s residential streets retain a quieter character relative to the surrounding activity.
The Value
At $379,000, this row house represents one of the lower price points available for a three-bedroom, three-bath home in the District. Buyers working within a defined budget who want a freestanding DC address — rather than a condo — will find few comparable configurations at this price in NE Washington.
The Opportunity
The combination of a 1912 build date, three full baths, and a T Street NE address in Eckington is not a common pairing at this price. Buyers seeking a foothold in DC row house ownership, with the structural bones of a century-old home and the locational advantages of an inner-ring NE neighborhood, should give this home serious consideration.

Property Location

About 170 T St NE

The home at 170 T Street NE is a row house built in 1912, a construction era that produced some of DC’s most enduring residential stock. Three bedrooms and three full baths give the layout a depth that is uncommon at this price point in the District. The row house form — attached, street-facing, with the proportions of early-twentieth-century DC construction — is a structural type that has defined NE Washington’s residential identity for over a century.

Eckington is an established NE neighborhood positioned between NoMa to the south, Bloomingdale to the west, and Edgewood to the north. The neighborhood’s tree-lined residential blocks sit within easy reach of Rhode Island Avenue NE, which provides grocery, retail, and transit access along its commercial corridor. Nearby green space includes the grounds surrounding McMillan Reservoir, and the broader NE quadrant offers a range of dining and daily-needs options within a short distance.

Daily life in Eckington centers on a walkable urban grid with quick access to multiple NE corridors. The Rhode Island Avenue Metro station on the Red Line connects residents to downtown DC and points north and south. Bloomingdale’s First Street NW dining corridor is close at hand, and the continued development of the NoMa district has expanded the range of retail and food options accessible from T Street NE.

The home sits in Eckington, an established NE Washington neighborhood bordered by NoMa to the south, Bloomingdale to the west, and Edgewood to the north. Eckington’s residential streets are characterized by early-twentieth-century row houses and tree-lined blocks typical of inner-ring NE DC.

Three full baths across a three-bedroom row house is an uncommon configuration, particularly at this price point in DC. It may reflect prior renovation work that added bathrooms to the original 1912 layout. Buyers should verify the current condition and configuration during a showing.
Homes built in the early twentieth century in DC were constructed during a period of robust residential development across the NE and NW quadrants. The structural materials and proportions of that era — brick construction, traditional row house massing — tend to be durable and architecturally distinctive relative to later-period infill.
Parking details were not specified in the available listing information. Buyers should inquire directly about on-street parking availability on T Street NE and whether the property includes any off-street parking or garage access.
