A Historic Residence in the Heart of Columbia Heights

3504 13th St NW #21 is a one-bedroom residence in a building constructed in 1910, situated on a residential street in Columbia Heights, NW. The building carries more than a century of architectural context, and the unit offers a straightforward ownership structure with HOA fees covering water, sewer, trash, insurance, reserve funds, and professional management.

Columbia Heights is one of DC’s most transit-accessible neighborhoods, anchored by the Columbia Heights Metro station on the Green and Yellow lines. The surrounding area supports daily life with a dense concentration of grocery options, restaurants, cafes, and retail along 14th Street NW and Irving Street NW.

At $315,000, this residence represents a considered entry point into NW DC ownership. The HOA’s comprehensive coverage of utilities and building expenses simplifies monthly budgeting and reduces exposure to unexpected maintenance costs.
