Executive Summary
Set on 6th Street NE in the Brookland neighborhood, this five-bedroom, four-bath single-family home spans 3,800 square feet across a structure originally built in 1905. The home offers a rare combination of scale, historic character, and private secured parking — attributes that are increasingly difficult to find together in this part of NE Washington. Brookland’s walkable commercial corridor, proximity to the Red Line, and established residential streets make this an address worth serious consideration at $949,000.
Scale and Character in Brookland
The home at 2815 6th Street NE represents a meaningful opportunity in one of NE Washington’s most established residential neighborhoods. Built in 1905, the structure carries the architectural presence of its era while offering a footprint — 3,800 square feet, five bedrooms, four full baths — that is genuinely uncommon in this submarket.
Brookland has long been defined by its tree-lined streets, Catholic University campus edge, and a commercial strip along 12th Street NE that supports daily life without overwhelming the neighborhood’s residential character. The Red Line’s Brookland-CUA station provides direct access to downtown DC and beyond, making the location practical for a wide range of schedules and destinations.
Private, secured, concrete driveway parking is included — a detail that carries real weight in a city where off-street parking at this scale is a genuine differentiator. The combination of square footage, bedroom count, and parking in a historic single-family home positions this property distinctly within the $949,000 price point for NE DC.
